4 Reasons to Consider a
Managed Firewall
by Chase Moritz, HTS
 As
the first line of
defense in your business
network security, a
secure firewall is one
of the most important
pieces of your network's
infrastructure. Without
it, any hacker or
intruder could easily
access your critical and
confidential
information.
With more and more
sophisticated threats
developing every day, it
can be difficult to stay
ahead of the curve in
keeping your business
protected. It takes more
than just purchasing a
piece of hardware,
plugging it in, and
calling it good.
Whether you have a
dedicated IT person
within your company or
not, there are numerous

firewall. Here are a few

about security
used with permission from HP
Technology at Work
 Congratulations,
you've taken every step to
secure data on your networks and
PCs against increasingly
malicious worms, Trojans and
viruses. But don't rest easy.
All infrastructure elements,
including printers, servers,
storage, Wi-Fi networks and

security threats. Forget them

nothing but a dream.
Whether they're criminals
looking to blackmail your
business, technically savvy
vandals getting their kicks,
revenge-minded former employees
or even competitors, hackers all
have one thing in common: they
want to disrupt your business
operations for money, other
gain—or simply for fun.
So, what can you do?
Read on for
some valuable tips to bolster
your overall IT defense »

Business Continuity
Tip:
Stay Afloat
The Midwest was hammered with yet
another snow storm recently. And with
winter weather on everyone’s mind, it’s
hard to believe that it's officially
spring.
As the snow
melts and temperatures rise, flooding
becomes a major issue in many parts of
the country. According to FEMA, floods
are one of the most common and expensive
natural disasters. All it takes is a few
inches of water to cause thousands of
dollars of damage. So what can you do to
protect yourself, your family and your
business? Check out Agility Recovery's
Flood
Preparedness Checklist
and
