The FBI estimates that U.S. businesses lose $67.2 billion every year to computer-related crime. Most of this expense falls to small and medium businesses like yours because they are typically the least protected. Truth is, good network and information security doesn't have to be expensive. It just needs to include the right elements and be configured to fit your needs.

TECHNOLOGIES:

The best security solutions are multi-layered and are based on the "defence in depth" approach that protects you from any particular attack using several, varying methods. Some common security measures include:

Firewall

Firewalls are designed to protect individual computers or entire computer networks from unauthorized outside access. They use a set of rules that analyze the origin, destination, content and other parameters of your incoming and outgoing traffic to block unwanted elements. IT MAX Group can recommend a combination of hardware-based and software firewall solutions that best fit your budget and security needs -- and configure them to be effective in your environment.

Anti-Virus and Spyware Removal

Anti-virus software is used to monitor your servers and workstations for malicious code and activity like viruses, worms, trojan horses and spyware. It is a necessary element of your security solution as it ensures that files and information that enters and leaves your office is free of potentially harmful code. An anti-virus solution can be deployed as a stand-alone measure or be incorporated into your firewall or an all-inclusive security suite.

Web Content Filtering

A web content filtering solution is often deployed to control non-work related web browsing and reduce your exposure to known sources of malware and viruses on the Internet. By analyzing web traffic and limiting connections to a selected range of websites, a content filtering system makes your network less vulnerable and quickly pays for itself with increased productivity in your office.

BUSINESS VALUE:

• Protect your information and network
• Avoid damage to your systems, hardware and reputation
• Increase employee productivity
