Overview
IT security has never been as important as it is today. With hacking tools now widely available, businesses need to take every precaution to protect themselves from external as well as internal threats.
Fible Technologies is an IT partner that you can trust to deal with such crucial concerns on your behalf. Our team of security consultants has over ten years’ experience of defining and implementing IT security policies, it more than familiar with the types of security issues faced by small and medium-sized businesses.
Specifying security solutions and policies requires expert input. As systems become increasingly interconnected, there are more potential threats to IT networks and critical business data. The irony is that as we provide better access for employees (to work remotely; for example), we also create the need for more sophisticated security solutions, systems and policies.
In parallel, it is getting easier for employees to copy and remove sensitive data – online or via simple USB drives and similar, highly portable media. Our in-depth experience ensures that we understand the evolving nature of such threats, and – more importantly – that we understand how best to protect clients from new threats as they arise.
The Service
“Before recommending a specific solution, we’ll analyse your business and the key business processes that involve user interaction and potential data risk.”
(Joseph, Fible Technologies Senior Technology Consultant)
Security is definitely not a “one size fits all” service offer. Some clients have large mobile workforces and 3rd party contractors, all of whom must be able to access key data at all times.
Others have multiple sites, with no home or remote working permitted. Some clients have regulatory issues to consider. Some have networks that cross international boundaries.
Some put security above all other concerns. Others are obliged to trade off absolute security against flexible working practices and financial viability. We are familiar with all such issues, and design tailored solutions accordingly. We can utilise a wide range of security technologies and solutions, as required, such as:
- Enterprise network appliances including Juniper, Cisco and other leading vendors
- Secure token based ID solutions from providers such as RSA
- Laptop encryption solutions from providers such as Pointsec
Approach
Our analysis begins with your business and its users, rather than with a predetermined solution.
Five key questions underpin our initial investigations:
- Your business processes?
- Your current network architecture, security policies and framework?
- Regulatory considerations?
- Access requirements for optimal working?
- Budget considerations?
With these questions answered, we carry out a gap analysis to define what is required to bring your network into line with your desired security levels. We then fill these gaps as required, first documenting security policies and procedures and then managing your network to these agreed and approved standards.
Fible’s technical team are highly trained in network and security solutions. We welcome the opportunity to discuss this crucial topic with you.
