Big problem
The number one issue we find when we engage a new client is security – or rather a lack of security. It’s amazing how many businesses have their networks connected to the internet with nothing but their DSL router between them and the outside world. And if you haven’t noticed – the internet is not a very safe place these days!
Come on in – the door’s open
Without proper security, you’re essentially unlocking the doors to your business and inviting the world inside, where they can browse through your confidential business data at their leisure. Banking information, credit card numbers, social security numbers and more – all right there for the taking. And you may not even know your network has been breached!
Oops. Did I do that?
It’s not just outsiders that present security threats. That innocent-looking website your secretary just visited may have deposited a spyware program or virus on your network. Or the instant messages one of your staff members receives from an internet friend could contain a Trojan horse or keylogger program that can expose log-in and password information. That’s not to mention the thousands of websites with content entirely inappropriate for the workplace – content that could even get you sued or worse if someone from your staff is accessing it!
Why is everything soooooo sloooooow?
The most innocent internet activity can affect your business, even if no spyware or viruses are involved. Streaming music and videos, unauthorized program downloads and social networking sites all take valuable bandwidth away from your business needs, slowing down your work. It's your bandwidth - you're paying for it. Shouldn't you get to use it for business?

Now what?
So what’s a business person to do? The old solution was to purchase an expensive firewall for intrusion prevention, add some type of gateway antivirus and antispyware software, then add another expensive unit to filter internet content and yet another to control bandwidth usage. Lots of up-front money, annual subscriptions to keep everything working, and all the associated upper-level technical help needed to maintain and support it all. Meanwhile, your initial investment just sits there depreciating in value day by day.
