Security Policy Management

We help you establish policies, processes and procedures for managing your information infrastructure. Having these policies in place is required to meet security compliance requirements such as PCI/DSS and HIPAA. Permission based security is also essential to maintain your confidential data by only allowing privileged users to ability to view and edit specific files or folders.

Security Protection

Every company should have a security policy for many reasons- the need to comply with franchise security standards, or to adhere to recommended best practices, or the requirement to abide by regulatory compliance. Windows Server Active Directory (AD) is the primary security management tool of most businesses and organizations that enables administrators to push out security policies across any size environment in a fast and efficient way. Examples of Group Policy Objects (GPO) can include limited or full account access, time restrictions, software installation or removal, local file permissions, ability to lock down workstations, enforce password complexity policy, prevent unauthorized users from accessing shared folders and remote computers, and running startup or logon scripts to set custom configurations.

Targeted Systems

Firewall Computer Services can provide policy templates from the leading IT security organizations to secure your business. These templates form the basis of a comprehensive security policy and are customizable to any size organization. We take into consideration targeting based on each computers/users configuration, role, locations, organization group, and security level to push policies to the appropriate workstations and servers that need it. Whether the devices are onsite or offsite the policies can instantly be pushed to workstations, remote workstations, servers, netbooks, and laptops. As soon as these devices login to the network the security policy is applied and effective immediately.

Regulatory Compliance

Security is an ongoing process that Firewall Computer Services can help manage quickly and effectively. We can help implement a plan to keep your network system secure to ensure all regulatory compliance is met. There have been numerous regulatory commissions that have issued compliance requirements such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), and the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS). Recently, auditors have been requiring evidence of compliance policies so it’s important to maintain and verify the procedures are in place.

 

Case Study

Firewall Computer Services worked with a client who was concerned that their current security policy didn’t meet the PCI/DSS standards to accept credit card payments via their website and onsite payments. We were able to make the necessary changes and compliance regulations so that all credit card information was always encrypted and stored according the PCI/DSS regulations. We take care of I.T. so you can take care of your business!
