What we manage

SD-WAN

Software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) chooses connections for different apps. Options include combining links, private connections between sites (VPNs) and backup routing.

Next-generation firewall

A firewall checks traffic using intrusion prevention, threat feeds and content filtering, with encrypted traffic inspection (TLS) where configured.

Secure Wi-Fi

Control Wi-Fi access by identity (802.1X), provide guest sign-in pages, tune wireless coverage and detect unauthorised access points.

Monitoring and maintenance

Alerts, equipment software updates, saved configurations and a record of changes.

Zero-Trust access

Give staff only the access they need, check devices, use single sign-on and multi-factor authentication (SSO/MFA), and separate access by app.

DNS-layer security

Cisco Umbrella checks website addresses through DNS to block known phishing and malware sites, in the office or remotely.

How we run it

  1. 1

    Assess and baseline

    Check your network layout, settings and risks. Agree service levels, times for changes and who handles urgent issues.

  2. 2

    Harden and deploy

    Apply agreed security settings site by site, with a plan to restore the previous setup if needed.

  3. 3

    Monitor and improve

    Review dashboards and monthly reports, then adjust settings based on how your network is used.

Plans

Final inclusions and service levels are confirmed during scoping. Options include Meraki licensing, 4G/5G failover, Umbrella DNS and Duo MFA. If you need a set response outside office hours, we can agree a paid after-hours support arrangement, with the response time set out in your agreement.
