Firewalls
If you have, or plan to have, a permanent connection
to the Internet or another private network, you will
probably want to control and restrict access to a
certain extent. Firewalls restrict network access,
allowing you to choose who gains access and when -
priceless when faced with security threats from
would-be hackers.
Expandable IT can supply and implement a firewall
tailored to your precise requirements.
Virtual Private Networking
(VPN)
Virtual Private Networking allows you create a
secure 'tunnel' through which you can send and
receive data with maximum security. This could be
created between two private networks or across the
Internet, the latter obviously enabling secure
access to your corporate network from anywhere on
the planet with an Internet connection.
Antivirus
We can implement an AV system that utilises a
central server to manage every antivirus client on
your network. This ensures that virus definition
files are automatically downloaded and distributed
to your client machines, ensuring that you have the
best protection possible against the ever-present
threat of computer viruses.
NT/2000 File and Group
Permissions
Managing the correct access rights to files and
information in a large organisation can be time
consuming and an administrative headache. We have
developed structures which adhere to BS7799
standards whilst maintaining flexibility, security
and safety.
Penetration Testing
Through Penetration Testing, we are able to identify
any vulnerabilities that may exist within your
infrastructure that could be exploited by would-be
hackers.
Backup Strategies
Despite taking all the security precautions that you
can, there is still the possibility that a system
could fail either by a malicious attack or a more
innocent system failure or user error. We supply a
range of devices and software which, when coupled
with the appropriate backup routine can ensure that
your systems are able to be returned to operational
status in the event of such a system failure.
Software Update Service
(SUS)
SUS is a technology which when deployed to a server
trickles Microsoft patches and updates out to
networked client machines. This means that patches
to secure exploits which have been identified by
Microsoft can be distributed to clients without the
need for any user interaction.
