Internet access is growing more and more prevalent in today's networking environments.
With the increased availability of broadband, and "always on" internet access, more and more businesses can take advantage of the Internet. The commercial world has rushed headlong into doing business on the Web, often without integrating sound security technologies and policies into their products and methods. The security risks -- and the need to protect both business and personal data -- have never been greater. What kinds of security threats are posed by the Internet? Some, like password attacks and the exploiting of known security holes, have been around since the early days of networking. Others, like password sniffers, IP forgery, and various types of hijacking and replay attacks, are newer. And still others, like the distributed denial of service attacks that crippled Yahoo, E-Bay, and other major e-commerce sites in early 2000, come from today's headlines.
CompuNet will help you use the Internet to better your business and minimize the risks and potential misuse and abuse.
Firewalls are a very effective way to protect your system from most Internet security threats and are a critical component of today's computer networks. Firewalls in networks keep damage on one part of the network (e.g., eavesdropping, a worm program, file damage) from spreading to the rest of the network. Without firewalls, network security problems can rage out of control, dragging more and more systems down.
We believe that the intranet is one of the fastest and most inexpensive ways to share knowledge throughout your organization, providing the information to make fast, well informed decisions.
We can help your company be more flexible and responsive through innovative use of intranet technologies. We specialize in building robust intranets which will serve as an 'information backbone' in your organization. Also, many custom database projects are well suited to intranet technology, as the intranet forms a common interface for your people to interact, and a cheaper, faster application to maintain and update.
Quite simply, the intranet is the platform that links employees and business functions with company information to provide a more efficient and profitable way working. It can dramatically change the way your company functions or simply reduce the need for administration and paper.
Three goals for an intranet installation
1. Improve internal communication and processes
2. Maximize knowledge and resources, by creating a data/knowledge warehouse
3. Help create stronger relationships with employees, customers and suppliers
Bottom line - the Internet is pervasive and growing, and every business has to deal with it whether they want to or not. It is a great tool to enhance business operations if used properly and the risks are recognized and mitigated.
Because we are an ISP, CompuNet is uniquely qualified to help you meet your goals in this arena.
