Security is one of those topics that all customers want to subscribe to, but few are prepared to pay a premium for. We at Logical Solutions have many years of experience working with companies of all sizes helping them to secure their infrastructures. The biggest challenge is to get the "buy in" of the staff at all levels. We have found you can implement the most secure solution in the world, but if your staff are not prepared to follow the guidelines defined, many fundamental security breaches may follow.

 

When we talk about ICT security, we like to think of our internal networks as safe, and the Internet or public networks as unsafe. It has been proven SecurityTringlethat over 80% of network breaches originate from within the company network. We like to think about security in the terms of some "computer guru" using a magic formula or code to gain access to our corporate networks, in reality most breaches are caused by staff simply giving away their passwords.

 

 

Interesting Point - "Isn't it funny we tend to have the lowest paid employees protecting the most valuable corporate possessions"

 

With today's computing requirements of access "anywhere / anytime" designing a good security infrastructure is complex and generally requires a multi layered approach. The Logical Security audit will help you identify these layers and test to ensure they are all in place as required.

 

The Security Triangle is a metaphor that has been used in the industry for many years and still holds very true today. The basic concept being, out of the three elements (Low Cost, Secure and Functional) you can only ever expect to achieve two of these elements at any one time.
