In response to the increasing number of network security attacks businesses
face every day – from viruses to “zombie” takeovers -- MicroServe
Consulting, Inc. http://www.msconsulting.com announces the national
expansion of their Managed Security Service, a proactive approach to ward
off a wide variety of threats before they can become all-out attacks.
(news continued below)
MicroServe’s Managed Security Service (MSS) has been protecting customers
throughout the Baltimore-Washington metro region for five years. Now, they
are expanding MSS beyond the region to national customers.
A physical box roughly the size of a small laptop computer, Managed
Security Service can be programmed to include the options each customer
needs, including intrusion detection and prevention, email security, and
high-level anti-spam filters. MicroServe handles all licenses and updates
involved and guarantees against viruses.
Battling the evils of the Internet “The Internet is a valuable tool for
businesses today, yet it is full of evil, too,” explains Rick Albert,
Executive Vice President of MicroServe Consulting, Inc. “The threat reports
we compile for each customer show the number and type of threats we have
detected and neutralized, and the attacks are clearly on the increase. MSS
is a security net, a way to stop these threats before they can cause major
damage to a network.”
Sometimes a company’s systems are compromised without their knowledge,
and are used to attack other networks, hence the term “zombie” attack.
Determining the source of the attack can be difficult, and the company may
become blacklisted, branded as a danger, when in fact they were never the
cause of the attack. MSS can detect and stop this type of attack before the
company’s systems become zombies.
MSS makes telework more secure With the security of MSS, employees can
work from home or remote office locations with the assurance that their
system is secure. This is a huge added benefit in these times of high gas
prices and long commutes. Between the money saved by not driving to work
every day and the quality of life benefits of working from home, there will
be some very happy employees at businesses thanks to MSS.
Taking security a step further with Managed Services (MS) For businesses
with even more advanced security needs, MicroServe Consulting is in the
process of rolling out Managed Services (MS), providing an even higher level
of network security. MS can give businesses options such as off-site
back-up, disaster recovery, Bare Metal Restore, and secure remote access
that enables MicroServe Consulting to detect and fix problems from their
location. Alternately, a business can run on servers located at MicroServe’s
security audited Data Center and connect remotely, without the need to
physically house the system at their company. MS is a fully customizable,
high-end option for the customers with more advanced network security needs.
“People don’t realize that when we say, ‘We cover your Information
Technology needs,’ we really mean that,” Albert continues. “We can put
together any and all parts of their network, at all their locations, whether
new or existing construction, and then we provide the level of security and
monitoring they need, too.”
