Consulting Analysis Security VPN Internet Connectivity Wireless Implementation

Computer networks in a company are one of the major parts of a company’s information technology infrastructure. Any business needs fast, reliable and expandable network for uninterruptible communication and smooth workflow as well as future add-ons. To build an effective network is not easy but maintaining it is harder. An effective analysis and monitoring of a network can expose bottlenecks, probable problems and dead ends.

Basic network analysis is our first step before anything else when we arrive a location, as it is the most effective way to determine problems. We first begin identifying all computers and components including operating systems, software and hardware. Then we draw network diagrams of the company showing each node, active and passive components like hubs, switches and routers. The next step is determining the connectivity and latency between nodes. The information captured in this phase gives answers of the following questions:

Is your equipment compatible with your network?
Do you have defective or problematic devices?
Is your cabling is adequate?
If you need to add more nodes (like a new computer or network printer) to
your network, are there available ports and cabling?

Network traffic analysis another service that we are offering. It includes internal LAN and Internet connectivity monitoring and accounting. Depending on topology, complexity and information requested, new hardware and/or software may need to be installed for this analysis and usually takes more time than basic analysis. This analysis gives lots of valuable information like bandwidth usage, protocol statistics and server usage. This information leads to many questions like:

Is your LAN working efficiently? If not what kinds of modifications are necessary?
Is your Internet connection is adequate? If yes for how long? If no what is the proper speed and type?
What kinds of network resources are used at most? Is your servers are capable of handling such loads? Do you need additional servers?

Topology analysis is the key for optimization. A poorly organized network may lead to connectivity problems, slower speeds and harder problem solving. Usually networks created without planning future additions. As network grows in time new physical equipments added without logical planning or reorganizing. As a result a poor network that is slow, inefficient and error prone develops. Such networks need to be divided into logical partitions called subnets. Subnets lead easy management and maintenance, less traffic and partial downtime of a network in case of failure. The result of topology analysis shows what kinds of modifications should be done to network to solve problems as well as future improvements.

Security analysis is to find out security holes of the system as well as permissions of your network. If you have a network that is not connected to Internet then the only concern is internal security. For example you may not want your employees to see your accounting files or you don’t want somebody accidentally delete your files. This analysis assures you have proper permissions on your network. If you have an Internet connection then in addition you have to be sure your network is protected. The case is more complicated if you have public servers (like web servers) or branch offices and needs more detailed information to be sure your confidential information is protected and your servers are safe against attacks.

Our analysis services assure the smooth operation and reliability of your network and lets you make necessary modifications. Also analysis helps if you need different kinds of network services like wireless networks, IP telephony, VPN or web hosting. Even you have no future plans or problems analysis helps to find probable failures and helps to reduce downtime in case of failure.
