Protect the Security of Your Network and Business Practices
with Proactive Assessments
The scope of a network security assessment includes reviewing:
- Network vulnerabilities
- Server configurations
- Physical access
- Workplace procedures
- Office computers
- Laptops and smartphones
For example, remote or mobile employees may be accessing the corporate network from insecure networks at home or on the road. No amount of bullet-proof network security technology can protect your business from employees who ignore or forget to follow established policies and procedures.
Similar to an annual financial audit, scheduling a proactive review each year of your IT security policies and vulnerabilities is the best approach. In this way, you gain a periodic, expert evaluation that confirms the security of your network and practices. At the very least, an assessment should be performed during times of change and growth, such as increased staffing, mergers, acquisitions or getting new funding for expansion.
