What is a virus ? Simply put, a virus is a computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer and/or networked device. Viruses can increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network or
internet that is accessed by another computer. Viruses can disrupt a business operation, destroy data and potentially cost thousands of dollars in lost revenue.
Most businesses recognise the need to implement anti virus protection into their IT systems, but too often the level or type of protection is ineffective, inadequate and simply does not offer the safeguards anticipated. Unfortunately, networks and data remain quite vulnerable from both external and internal security threats and require the most appropriate security measures. IT security has never been as important as it is today, with the increasing need for high-speed internet connections, data communication, and remote connections in today’s businesses, the exposure level to attacks or unauthorised users has never been greater. It is critical that businesses choose the appropriate software and hardware devices to secure these systems and protect the greatest asset within your business - your data!
Anti virus protection can be deployed over a small single office network through to multi office, multiple server environments and the correct product is essential in order to provide the most appropriate level of protection. All businesses should be running anti virus protection software. If your business doesn't or if you have any concerns about your existing antivirus product and the level of protection it affords your IT system, then please contact us to discuss further.
We offer an IT Security assessment designed to evaluate the security and virus protection level of a business identifying any potential vulnerabilities that may result from poor or improper system configuration, known and/or unknown hardware or software flaws, or operational weaknesses. This covers aspects of your IT systems including network infrastructure, operating systems, applications, data & hardware. The benefit of such testing will expose vulnerabilities in your network and business, lessen the likelihood of being attacked, locate and disable vulnerable access points and implement policies to protect your business operation.
Remember, we also specialize in a variety of other technology based services which we offer to businesses in Nassau and throughout The Bahamas including Information Technology, Web Design, Website Development, Graphic Design, Corporate Identity and Print Identity.
