Reliable broadband company wide connections to the Internet have become business essentials. With this full-time access comes the danger of hackers, viruses and other security compromises. Listed below are some of the services Protacom offers to make sure your network is protected from these threats.
 

Security

Firewalls: Once connected to the Internet, your network must be protected from intrusion. Firewalls represent the best first line of defence. These devices control the type of Internet traffic that is allowed into your network as well as providing VPN capability, content filtering and control over web site access.

Virus Protection: It's not a question of if you will be attacked by viruses, it's a question of when. We provide automated solutions to protect both servers and workstations from virus infection thereby ensuring network integrity and operation.

Spyware Protection: A general term for a program that surreptitiously monitors your actions. While they are sometimes sinister, like a remote control program used by a hacker, software companies have been known to use spyware to gather data about customers.

Security Updating: Software and hardware manufacturers are constantly releasing patches / fixes and firmware upgrades to provide protection against the ever present threat from hackers and intruders. We will keep you informed of these security updates and make sure they are implemented in your network environment when and where necessary.
