As employees become more mobile it’s essential they always have access to important data whether it’s on a smart phone, tablet, or laptop. We utilize technologies built-in to Windows in addition to third party software tools to provide your workforce all the resources they need in a fast, reliable and secure environment.
The Technology
Virtual Private Network (VPN) enables users to establish encrypted secure connections to a remote network. When the connection is active users have the ability to access shared folders and files, access internal applications, printers, network access server (NAS) devices, email system, and everything else normally available to onsite users directly connected to the servers and network. Typically businesses that can most benefit from VPN technology are ones with a remote workforce. Whether the users are in the same city, across country, or around the world this technology enables to access of all necessary data quickly and securely.
Implementation
Firewall Computer Services have successfully setup and maintained VPN services for our clients in Central Florida and around the country. Using enterprise-level Cisco devices we’ve configured VPN end-to-end systems for remote locations along with VPN dial-in technology for those employees on the road or away from the office. Typically remote or satellite offices implement a hardware based solution from location to location while individual users using any broadband Internet connection are able to establish an encrypted VPN session without the need for extra hardware.
Case Study
Our team worked with a service based business client with a mobile workforce of technicians that needed a fast, reliable and secure way to keep track of time worked, access to up-to-date customer information, and access to an internal Microsoft SharePoint database. Whether the mobile tech was using a WiFi connection or Cellular connection (AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint) data access card we were able to implement a VPN solution that met their requirements. We take care of I.T. so you can take care of your business!
