We host and manage a number of web sites for our local long term clients. <br><br> <li> We sell discounted Cisco maintenance with prepayment. Give us a call and let us save you some money. Cisco almost never discounts maintenance and even Gold Resellers rarely ever give discounts, unless the contract is well over $100K and even then, it's insignificant. We are more aggressive in our pricing. Give us a try!<br><br> <li> While our initial goals are to meet the critical needs of the businesses that we support, our long range goal is to help our clinets move their computing resources forward to a level that best meets the longer term goals of their business requirements, within their given resources.<br><br> <li> We have been helping businesses establish a presence on the Internet, setting up a single host to provide email, domain name services (DNS), and a Apache web server (if desired) for the past decade. Apache is the mostly widely used Web Server software currently in use on the Internet (70% of the market) and has been for the past dozen years. We protect both this critical multifunction system and the client's internal network by installing an OpenBSD Firewall with three interfaces: 1) the Internet, 2) the DMZ network (where the above system resides) and 3) the internal network, i.e. intranet. <a href="details.html" target="mainFrame">See details.</a> OpenBSD is the most secure version of UNIX out of the box available. In this regard, there is no close competition, especially from any personal computing (either PC or Mac) operating system like Windows.<br><br> <li> We also manage and support our clients internal network and computing systems, including desktops and file/print servers and custom application systems. We can provide technical advice on any aspect of our clients computing needs and requirements. This partnering assist the business when having to make critical technical decissions with insufficent technical expertise or without specific relevant knowledge, which reduces the possibly making avoidable mistakes. We support UNIX and both PC & Macintoshes, running either Windows, Mac OS or UNIX. <br><br> <li> We have built and managed networks for companies that range in size from a couple of dozen systems to hundreds of employees, with close to twice that many networked devices. We have implemented remote WAN network links that span coast to coast.<br><br> <li> We have been engaged in technical support within industry and within this business for a well over twenty years. We have been in continuous operation in this area as a business since 1996, though we have been engaged in Internet site management since 1987.<br><br> </ul> </span> <SPAN style=" font-size:17pt; font-weight:bold ">         Contact us for your technical support. </span> </td></tr> </table> <div align="center"> <p align="center"><br> <h2>Focus of our Security Offerings </h2></p> </div> <div align="left"> <ul><h3> <li> Integrating proper security mechanisms into a Client's Intranet and the Internet Firewall environment (including the computers residing upon these more vulnerable subnets) to protect the company's network and computing resources from common security threats. <br> </li> <li> Firewall envirnment design and implementation, utilizing either a stateful packet filter firewall and/or a proxy based firewall system, to a more complex design that combines multiple devices, a proxying firewall system and/or filtering firewall, along with multiple screened subnets, if required. <br> </li> <li> Remedial analysis of troubled networks, along with an implemention of necessary changes to bring the network back to a stable state within the Client's over all computing environment. <br> </li> <li> Analysis of a Client's over all computing and network security environment, resulting in recommendations on a migration strategy to bring the environment to a state that meets the challenges of the Client's business goals. </li> <li> Completely outsource their Firewalling function, including the analysis of their current network/computing environmment, design of the firewalled environment, implementation, support and continuous monitoring and modifications.</li> </ul> </div> <div align="center"> <p align="center"> <h2>Areas of Extensive Experience (spanning 20 years)</h2> </div> <div align="left"> <ul><h3> <li> TCP/IP security: including Firewall system designs and thorough understanding of the standard IP protocol suite (TCP, UPD, ICMP), along with the services that utilize these protocols; the knowledge of how to setup the security infrastructure, such that unecessary exposure to attack is removed. <br> </li> <li> A proven track record for both the design and implementation of complex Local Area Networks (LANs), based on current high speed switching technology (from a small scale LAN to a large scale campus environment) and WAN network links, either dedicated, FrameRelay, fiberoptic or other media/protocols, including the complexity of a multihomed Internet site utilizing BGP4 (WAN) and OSPF or EIGRP (LAN) routing. <br> </li> <li> An understanding of the strengths and the weakness of various network technologies, including where each should be applied and where each should be avoided, i.e. cell (ATM) versus frame based (various Ethernet options) switching, routing versus switching, etc. <br> </li> <li> The specifications and installation of various types of WAN links via dedicated T1, HDSL, T3, dark-fiber or copper based FrameRelay; or dynamic links as in ISDN. <br> </li> <li> Selection, configuration and use of multiplexers, switches, routers and the implementation of Security stateful packet filtering mechanisms for TCP/IP networks.
