Small Business Firewall and Password Security

Keep unauthorized people out of your IT network!

Firewalls

Choosing and installing the right firewall for your small business is more than relying on what you get with your Internet host. You must determine if you need hardware versus software, where it will be installed and how, and ensuring every machine on your network is protected.

It also means making sure that firewall passwords and security restrictions are correctly configured to keep out unwanted intruders. (Hackers get into networks because IT managers, who should know better, don’t change the default password!)

If you’re a small business in the greater Boston, southern New Hampshire or northern Rhode Island areas, and you don’t have a firewall, or you’re wondering if you need a more secure one, we can help you. Just give us a call at 1-800-574-4335 or send an email to info@geekofficesolutions.com and we’ll do an assessment of your system and give you our recommendations.

Comprehensive Password Strategy

You need passwords for everything these days – from server software to mobile devices. If you have five or more employees, this means that they all need passwords, too.

Remembering passwords is difficult, so many people use the same one for everything – or even worse, write them down and keep them near their computer! – making it easy for hackers and others to find their way into your network.

To help keep your systems safe, we’ll work with you to develop a comprehensive and secure password strategy as well as educate your employees on password security best practices.

Software patch management

Keep your servers, workstations and remote computers up-to-date and secure with GOS’ software patch management service. We’ll download and install all appropriate patches and make sure they’re working properly – often in a fraction of the time that it takes you or a “technical” employee to set up.
