Network
Installation & Support |
|
| |
Even the best hardware and
software is of little value if it is not installed and
configured properly. Knowing the correct settings for
today's advanced server applications is simply a matter of
experience. The ramifications of an incorrectly installed
network or software program can result in costly budget
overruns and operational downtime. TWINTEL has years of
experience and a team upon which to draw, so you can rest
assured that your network will be more then just "working",
but also configured for maximum security and optimized for
peak performance. TWINTEL will also document the critical
aspects of your network and make that information
accessible. See TWINTEL

Proactive
Network Administration |
|
| |
Active management of your
network, as opposed to waiting for it to breakdown,
increases its reliability and your productivity. There are a
few key areas that should be regularly maintained in order
to ensure the safety and reliability of your network:
- Data Backup and Verification
- Antivirus Software Updates and
Monitoring
- Microsoft and Application Updates
- Hardware Condition
- Firewall Integrity
For as
little as two hours per week TWINTEL can
manage these critical tasks for you, allowing you to do what
you do best, focus on your business.

If your server crashes
or your network is "down", rapid resolution is critical.
Server issues often affect every user on your network. You
cannot afford to wait until tomorrow or the next day for an
answer. TWINTEL has the ability to access
your server from a remote location and provide fast,
efficient support in minutes, not days. If required, TWINTEL can dispatch a technician in just a couple
of hours, seven days a week.

Security Audit |
|
| |
A Security Audit offers your
organization the opportunity to examine your systems for
compliance to a variety of security standards. These
standards can include internal and external security
policies, software manufacture recommendations, legal
requirements and known "best practices". Our Security
Specialist will identify areas where your systems are out of
compliance, and provide you with a written estimate of
investment necessary to achieve conformance.
Security Auditing will
identify the following potential problems:
- Check service pack
levels
- Check for missing
security patches
- Check for security
alerts/vulnerabilities
- Detect unnecessary
shares
- Detect unnecessary open
ports
- Detect new security
holes using scan comparisons
- Check for unused user
accounts
- Check password policy
and strength
- Detect potential Trojans
on servers and workstations
- Determine if the OS is
disclosing too much information

Wide Security Threat Assessment
and Reduction |
|
| |
A network must be designed
with the goal of reducing or eliminating the risk of a
security breach. A Security Threat Assessment will allow you
to understand where your organization may be vulnerable to a
security breach. Using specialized vulnerability management
software tools and a series of interviews, our security
consultants can help you identify critical areas of
vulnerability. These assessments will be performed both
internally and externally.
Threat Assessment Process:
- Identify and assess your
most critical infrastructures and processes
- Intrusion detection and
analysis via data mining and port scanning
- Recommend methods to
detect future cyber attacks
- Recommend data integrity
and protection
- Prepare Assessment
Report
-
Written estimate for parts and labor to implement a
security "upgrade"

Secure
Infrastructure Design |
|
| |
The topology structure of
your network is the backbone. While many networks are "flat"
without out subnetworks and multiple routers, a skilled
specialist can diagram a new network structure that can
greatly enhance your security level. For example, an office
can be on a separate firewall then the warehouse; a wireless
network, exchange server or web server should be on a
separate network with separate routing/DHCP. Comprehensive
network design and access strategies include firewalls,
intrusion detection systems and VPN networks.

Firewall Selection and Implementation |
|
| |
A reliable firewall is a critical aspect of any security
initiative. We maintain partnerships with the industry's
premier firewall manufacturers, including SonicWall, Check
Point, and Cisco. Our consultants will assist you in
selecting and implementing the firewall that makes the most
sense for your organization. Basically, a firewall examines
each network packet to determine whether or not to forward
it toward its destination. A firewall also includes or works
with a proxy server that makes network requests on behalf of
workstation users.
There are a number of
firewall screening methods. A simple one is to screen
requests to make sure they come from acceptable (previously
identified) domain name and Internet Protocol addresses. The
most effective firewall implementation is Stateful Packet
Inspection. For mobile users, firewalls allow remote access
into the private network by the use of secure logon
procedures and authentication certificates (VPN). |

Virtual
Private Networking (VPN) |
|
| |
VPN services can dramatically reduce the costs and
complexity of providing connectivity to remote offices and
remote users. VPN services are typically tied into your
firewall, and utilize an encrypted tunnel through the
Internet to provide secure connectivity to network
resources. Our consultants can assist you in developing and
integrating VPN solutions into your network systems.
A virtual private network (VPN)
is a private data network that makes use of the public
telecommunication infrastructure, maintaining privacy
through the use of a tunneling protocol and security
procedures. The idea of the VPN is to give the company the
same capabilities at much lower cost by using the shared
public infrastructure rather than a private one. Phone
companies have provided secure shared resources for voice
messages. A virtual private network makes it possible to
have the same secure sharing of public resources for data.
Companies today are looking at using a private virtual
network for both extranets and wide-area intranets.
With a VPN, a company can
exchange data with virtually anyone in the world for nearly
half the cost of using dedicated and/or frame relay
circuits. As an added benefit, the same VPN technology can
securely connect networks to remote access users, utilizing
dialup links or broadband services such as xDSL and cable
modems. |

Network
Monitoring and Security Management Services |
|
| |
Keeping up with hackers is a
full-time job, and one that most organizations do not have
the time do. We proactively monitor hacker activity as they
attempt to penetrate your network boundary and receive
notifications of a security breach. You'll receive real-time
intrusion detection monitoring, as well as log file analysis
and comprehensive Internet usage and traffic reports.
Our security management
software proactively ensures system availability by
establishing security configuration baselines, continuously
auditing for security vulnerabilities and helping to correct
exposures before they result in security breaches or costly
downtime.
Our group of monitoring
programs will:
- Check systems for
Spy-Ware software.
- Review security policies
and ensure that they are current, implemented and
enforced.
- Ensure current
service-level and security patches have been installed,
including antivirus updates.
- Review and monitor
critical system logs for suspect activity.
- Revisit your firewall
configurations and rules to ensure that unnecessary
ports and services are turned off and that access
control is tightly managed.
- Revisit access control
lists to ensure that access to critical functions and
resources is limited.
