Network Security
Next Horizon is your resource for network security In the Central Florida area. Everyone uses computers for everything, just imagine if you didn't have one or if you didn't have control over the one you have.
Although you may not consider anything you have to be "top secret," but most likely you do not want strangers reading your email, using your computer to cause malicious activity on other systems, sending Spam from your computer, or looking, deleting, or changing personal information stored on your computer or your computer network.
Security is concerned with three main areas:
-
Confidentiality - information should be available only to those who rightfully have access to it
-
Integrity -- information should be modified only by those who are authorized to do so
-
Availability -- information should be accessible to those who need it when they need it
Some security risks arise from intentional misuse of your computer by intruders via the Internet. Others are risks that you would face even if you weren't connected to the Internet (e.g. hard disk failures, theft, power outages, and internal abuse).
What is Computer Security?
Computer security is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of your computer and/or Network resources. Prevention measures help you to stop unauthorized users from accessing any part of your enterprise network. Detection helps you to determine whether or not someone attempted to break into your network, if they were successful, and what they may have done.
What Can Next Horizon do for my company?
Two simple words: Risk Management
Risk Management
It's very important to understand that in security, one simply cannot say "what's the best firewall or I want to be 100% secure!" There are two extremes 100% security and 100% access. The closest we can get to a 100% secure machine is to unplug from the network, and lock it in a safe. A machine with 100% access is extremely convenient to use: it's simply there and will do whatever you tell it with no authorization or passwords.
Next Horizon will analyze your business as well as your business needs. During this process we will conduct many security audits. Once we analyze your business and gather the information from the security audits, Next Horizon will present you with options to clear up and secure your network. All of the options can be added and done all at one time or you may prefer a deadline for a slow transition. Either way Next Horizon will make your security efforts, effortless. If your company is concerned about security and you are in the Central Florida or Orlando Area give Next Horizon a call for all of your Orlando computer networking needs.
