Frequently Asked Questions

• What is network security?

  Network Security is a comprehensive data protection system that constantly monitors and manages all of the data that travels to and from any devices that are connected to, or attempting to connect to a network.

  With a comprehensive wireless network security system, all elements of network and device security are managed and automatic.

  • Email
    Printers
  • Scanners
  • Televisions
  • Credit card transaction and POS terminals
  • Media players
  • any internet-connected home devices

• What is a multi-layered cybersecurity system?

  Consider Network Security as a defensive system composed of multiple circles of well-armed and well-informed security officers surrounding the perimeter of your property. It’s a multi-layered system that secures your network from the innumerable attacks it’s being subjected to on a daily basis.
  
  Layer #1: Firewall

  • Your first layer of network security is a commercial-grade firewall. This is how traffic is controlled coming into and leaving your devices.
  • The firewall adds a layer of protection by preventing an unauthorized user from accessing a computer or network.

  
  Layer #2: Automatic Encryption

  • Requiring no additional action on the part of the user, all data traveling on the network will be automatically encrypted; jumbled and scrambled into unreadable code.
  • No one from the outside can read a password, username, account number, credit card number, or any other personal information traveling through the network.

  Layer #3: Web content filtering

  • This system is applied across your network to prevent malicious websites from accessing your computer with harmful or aggressive systems for information gathering.

  Layer #4: Advanced Threat Detection

  • Content moving through your network is monitored in real-time.
  • "Smart" software to detect suspicious and malicious incoming information.
  • Malicious information is blocked and quarantined, generating an advisory so that you can decide what to do next.
  • Everything is automatic and seamless so that you’re only made aware when necessary.

  The service is "set it and forget it" and there is nothing the user has to do. Warnings, alerts, and options activate when necessary.

  Comprehensive layered security allows you to enjoy peace of mind knowing your network is optimally protected from cyber risk at all times.
