Secure the People

Security is one of your biggest concerns.  Viruses, spam, worms can all wreak havoc on your network  - and dramatically impact the productivity of your team members.  There are penetration points throughout your network, including routers, servers, and even the team members themselves.  Having a secure and well managed infrastructure is critical to your success.  A security breach opens you to everything from lost productivity to compromised files to even potentially a lawsuit.   The right tools are only part of the answer.  Defense in depth starts with people  - education, policies, and training.  Process must be in place to provide governance and rules.  Finally, the right tools must be embedded within your network  - and your organization  - to fully address your security needs.
