Viruses. Hackers. Disgruntled employees. In the new world of Internet connectivity and e-commerce, network security is a hot new topic. But network security is not something new to Cohn Consulting Corporation.

We’ve been providing network security solutions since our founding in 1993. From properly defining security and auditing within network operating systems to developing secure virtual private networks, we’ve helped corporations create the secure environments that they need. All while providing ease of administration and ease of use. We understand the need for airtight security that doesn’t impede the flow of business.

And we understand that security is not just a box that sits on your network. It is properly crafted management policies, effectively communicated to employees, and thoroughly audited for compliance. It is implemented using state-of-the-art technologies, tempered with a deep understanding of the risks and a great deal of common sense.

Cohn Consulting Corporation can help you develop your network security systems and policies. We have strategic alliances with leading security vendors, top notch technical skills, and a wealth of experience to deliver the security environment that is right for your company.

Cohn Consulting Corporation’s Network Security services gives you complete control over your local and wide area networks. Using products from leading network security vendors, we can install and configure the systems to help you implement anti-virus technology, virtual private networking, file encryption, content management, directory management, and access control. From management awareness to policy creation and from risk assessment to system implementation, we have the products and expertise to keep your network secure.

Some of our services include:

Security Policies
The best security is a thorough management policy that is strictly adhered to and covers all the bases. From the physical security of hardware devices to proper risk assessment and classification of data, and from technology intercepts to proper communication of policies to employees, Cohn Consulting Corporation can help you develop and implement the policies you need to keep you secure.

Anti-Virus
Viruses, worms, and Trojan horses represent a very real danger to today’s business computing environment. They can be introduced through e-mails, web pages, program downloads, infected disks, and even shrink-wrapped software. They can infect programs, documents, and spreadsheets. Viruses can cause anything from mild aggravation and lost productivity to catastrophic data loss. Cohn Consulting Corporation can provide the tools, information, and procedures to implement a comprehensive automated anti-virus strategy to protect your resources and your business.

Encryption
In today’s mobile society, critical business data resides on all kinds of devices: Laptops, mobile phones, PDA’s, etc. Many of these devices are accessible to anyone in your office, are easily lost, and can literally “walk out the door”; this makes your data especially vulnerable, especially “on the road”. Cohn Consulting Corporation can provide the software, expertise, and methodologies to protect your data using encryption technologies. This way, your data is restricted to only those people you want and is secure no matter where it goes.

Firewalls / VPN
Telecommuting and the Internet are a boon to all businesses. Your employees can be set up to access the websites and systems of your clients and vendors. And, in turn, your employees, vendors, and clients can all be setup to access your systems remotely to increase productivity, reduce costs, and improve service. We have the tools and expertise to help you setup this communication securely using firewalls and virtual private networking, allowing only authorized users and traffic to access your systems while simultaneously preventing others from accessing those systems or viewing that traffic in transit.

Content And Site Management
Where are your employees going when surfing the ‘net? What information is being sent out in e-mails? And what’s coming in? Are you exposed legally or competitively by your employees’ actions on the Internet? We have the tools and services to help you track your employees Internet usage and block inappropriate sites and damaging e-mails.

Advanced Authentication, Integrity, and Non-Repudiation Solutions
As advanced security technologies become more affordable, more and more companies are implementing comprehensive security solutions that enhance the basic security technologies discussed above. These solutions ensure:

  • Authentication – you are who you say you are
  • Integrity – your data has not been tampered with
  • Non-repudiation – you can prove where the data came from

Examples of these solutions include biometrics, card key and token systems, smart cards, digital certificates and signatures, and other such technologies. Cohn Consulting Corporation can help you to integrate such advanced security systems into your IT environment, giving you greater peace of mind as to your own security and making you a more trusted partner for your vendors and clients.
