Descriptions of words/phrases used in technology:

Reporting/Alerting

Proactively respond & prevent the most commonly exploited vulnerabilities such as Ransomware, Remote Employees, Living of The Land (LoTL) exploits and Man in the Middle network attacks.

Virtual Private Networking

A VPN provides the ability for sites and end users (remote employees, contractors, sales people, etc.) to connect to the corporate network, without the risk of exposing sensitive information to non-corporate systems.

Automation

Automation comes in many forms in today's IT infrastructure. Auto configure a new WiFi AP. Set standard desktop icons on employee PCs. Setup file shares for departments. Lock out users after a certain amount of failed login attempts...

These are just a few of the near limitless benefits of automation.

Firewall / Network Security

A firewall protects your connected equipment from the threats that lurk out on the Internet. Firewalls can be configured with a large set of protective features, including scanning all incoming traffic for virus signatures, blocking connections from other countries, checking to make sure an employee isn't sending SSN info and much more...

Protecting a business starts with the Firewall, but reaches much further than just that.

C14G specializes in protecting businesses from the Internet, through the network, down to the end user's device, including WiFi and phones.

Security Operations Center (SOC)

'A SOC—usually pronounced "sock" and sometimes called an information security operations center, or ISOC—is an in-house or outsourced team of IT security professionals dedicated to monitoring an organization’s entire IT infrastructure. Its mission is to detect, analyze and respond to security incidents in real-time. This orchestration of cybersecurity functions allows the SOC team to maintain vigilance over the organization’s networks, systems and applications and ensures a proactive defense posture against cyber threats.' per IBM

C14G offers SOC services for our clients, w/ 24x7 support, if desired.

Endpoint Protection (EPDR)

Endpoint Prevention Detection & Response is more than just a "typical" antivirus solution. EDPR includes the ability to know when something on a users device is outside the "normal" operating parameters. Threats can be detected & prevented before they happen. Ransomware, Brute Force attacks and thousands of other non-typical attacks, aren't something to worry about with EPDR. While the threat evolves, EPDR is right here to protect from it.

Stop worrying about the changing landscape and let our EPDR solution do it for you, every second of every minute of every day.
