Firewalls

We provide comprehensive firewall security protection for businesses across London and the UK.

Firewalls help protect your IT from harm by spotting and preventing problems from entering and spreading through your IT network from the Internet - like fire doors do to flames in buildings.

They do this by stopping unauthorised Internet access to your IT by preventing you from mistakenly inviting viruses, spyware or other harmful software onto your network.

They are the first line of defence in IT security ahead of antivirus software and are a form of prevention rather cure.

A good firewall will not allow you to browse the net unprotected if your antivirus is out of date, can block unwanted Internet content and thus prevent your connection from being abused.

Firewall protection

Firewalls range from firewall software through to physical hardware boxes which we can install inside your business premises.

Our team of Microsoft Certified Professionals (MCPs) keep up to date with all the latest firewall trends and technologies and can advise you on what kind of firewall protection will best suit your needs.

We can install, support and manage your firewall for you to ensure your IT network is doesn't encounter any problems from viruses, spyware, adware and malware.

If you already have a firewall or firewall software in place which is not meeting your requirements then we can review it for you and recommend or carry out any necessary work to bring it up to the required standard.

We also offer Antivirus, SPAM Blockres and Filters and Unified Threat Management (UTM) security measures which can work in conjunction with your firewall to protect your IT from even greater harm.

If you're worried about, or have suffered from a network failure, we offer a data recovery and backup solution which will restore your IT network within hours called Server Rescue.
