Employees now have constant access to IT to enable them to carry out their jobs. Consequently it is very difficult to prevent this same technology from being used for personal reasons. Whether it is prolonged and personal Internet browsing or dealing with private e-mails in work time, the consequences are the same – reduced productivity.
The ready availability of pornographic and other offensive material on the Internet has led to the deliberate and in some cases accidental, proliferation of such material on many work-based computer systems.
Inappropriate use of the Internet or the downloading of illegal and copyrighted material by staff can leave senior management of the organisation open to legal action.
As Internet use becomes more widespread and external attacks more sophisticated it is necessary to constantly monitor the network traffic entering and leaving your systems to reduce your exposure to infection and legal action.
Concise IT can provide solutions that offer real–time protection from the latest inappropriate content, viruses, Adware, Spyware and malware – for example, threats in Web page downloads – before they reach the local network.
Our fully managed service takes care of online security, leaving you free to run your business. It automatically updates its protection, so you are always protected from the latest viruses and offensive Web content. This happens at Internet level, so the updates do not slow network speeds or restrict Internet traffic.
The service features sophisticated line rate URL filtering that recognises obscure and embedded Web addresses, plus Web threat scanning. Combined, these security features ensure you can use the Internet in complete confidence.
