Managed Security Monitoring and Risk Management
The internet is critical to anyone in business. Companies have no choice but to connect their internal networks to the rest of the World.
Connecting to the Internet brings new threats: malicious hackers, criminals and industrial spies. These people regularly steal corporate assets and intellectual property, cause service breaks, system failures and downtime. They can hold you to ransom for the information they have obtained or use it against your customers.
Computer security is a fundamental enabling technology of the internet; it’s what transforms the Internet from an academic curiosity into a serious business tool.
People ask “is my Anti Virus enough protection for my business”, we respond with “it’s a good start”.
When it comes to corporate and business network security you need to have the following elements in place:
- Anti Virus
- Firewalls
- Secure Password
- Event Logging
- Risk Protection, Detection, Management and Response
A combination of the above will give you a high level of protection from all types of threats, it will also give you the tools to react accordingly when a threat has been detected or breached your security systems.
Simtech-IT offer a complete Security and Risk Management service around each of our products, or you can opt to just have this service on its own. Contact our team on 0845 5441 589 to discuss your requirements.
During the first week of August 2011 we had detected three separate hacking attempts on corporate networks. The size of these businesses ranged from 3 users to 20 user networks. Not large organisations you hear about on the news but small local family run organisations.
The hacking attempts were foiled by our security and risk management experts and the client’s data integrated and systems remain safe and secure on this occasion.
During the same week we were contacted by another firm to look at their Small Business Server. The server had been hacked and there data compromised. Our experts cleaned the server up and removed additional threats which had been embedded by the hackers.
We returned the server to the customer who has now adopted our security and risk management service. We continually analyze events and alarms to determining what is really going on within a client’s network.
