Email Security

You've probably heard of anti-virus software- it sits on your computer and protects against software attacks. We prefer security appliances; where protective software lives on its own piece of hardware.

Security Appliances have several benefits:

• All your own equipment is freed up to run your business with.
• Our dedicated machinery cannot itself be compromised- it's designed to do one job alone.
• Maintenance costs are low, as problems are easier to diagnose.

Our solutions will take care of spam and viral threats, leaving you to get on with running your business.

Viral attacks on computer systems now come in a range of shapes and sizes

"Hacking" into your workflow now accounts for only a small proportion of malicious attacks. "Denial of Service" attacks can block your e-commerce activity and cripple your business, "viral" activity can wipe essential records.

Before you get too scared, be assured that Principal's appliance-based firewall and anti-virus solutions are more than up to the job; and there are solutions for even the smallest business or branch office. Far too often, companies buy anti-virus solutions because they've just been attacked- so do the right thing now, and talk to us about protection. Our MXTreme and Firebox units are easy to set up fresh out of the box, and can be moved around if you need to change resources. The MXTreme series units take only 20 minutes to set up, and you won't need expert help- (although we can offer it- and plenty of advice and backup too). We’ll scale the service to your exact needs, and we can also ensure that your new security measures don't mean you lose out on benefits like web mail access, either.

If all this is confusing, give us a call. Before he recommends products or solutions for your business, you will find that your Principal consultant will ask plenty of questions. He takes full responsibility for getting your product recommendations right, backed up by a proper business case. We want you to get the right product for your money- and that includes ensuring you understand what you need and why!

Please do the right thing now- your Principal adviser can help you protect your most important data assets; and the cost of the service will invariably be less than the expense of a viral attack.
