Advanced LAN Security
Despite the high-profile nature of external security attacks, internal security attacks pose a far bigger problem. Our Advanced LAN Security service identifies your network vulnerabilities and provides you with a remedy that ensures availability and security go hand in hand.
Networks First's Advanced LAN Security service protects both the network’s data and infrastructure from the many threats that exist within an organisation, but fall outside the scope of normal perimeter security mechanisms. We’ll protect the LAN from unauthorised network and management access and Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
Networks First will:
- Review security policy and document the existing LAN security configuration
- Understand technical drivers associated with internal security requirements
- Identify current hardware, software and configuration vulnerabilities
- Ascertain features and capabilities of the existing infrastructure to comply to industry standards and best practice, such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) 802.1X standard
- Identify systems that can be utilised for the Advanced LAN Security configuration
- Provide a gap analysis between what is currently deployed and what should be configured on the LAN to adhere to best practise for internal LAN security
- A list of recommended next actions leading to the configuration of an Advanced LAN Security solution; utilising existing infrastructure systems where possible
- An enhanced LAN configuration, documented and underwritten to an agreed specification will then be implemented by Networks First.
