SERVERS
Your server is one of the core components of your IT Infrastructure so it is exceptionally important to guarantee its up time. Whether it’s a simple file/print server or hosting more complex roles such as SQL databases for a bespoke business application or Exchange for your companies E-mails it can be equally frustrating when business grinds to a halt.
“Our server is down” is something we at COMPUPORT hear all too often. Ensuring the resilience of our client’s server is one of the many important factors we incorporate into our IT Support Plans to keep your business running efficiently. When COMPUPORT is appointed to manage your IT we conduct a comprehensive infrastructure audit checking the server's performance and making the necessary tweaks to ensure it is optimally configured.
Using our state of the art tools we can maintain and manage your server’s health remotely from our office which enables us to detect issues before they escalate into more sinister matters which makes outsourcing server support and maintenance more appealing.
Furthermore, we implement the precautions to allow us to remotely diagnose your server outages even when it has crashed or not booted into the server operating system using.
Not every case can be resolved remotely, but with our proven track record and measures we implement when taking over your server support, the requirement for onsite visits are rare.

Network Security and LINUX FIREWALL
Today, access to the Internet and E-Mail is a necessity to almost every business. For this reason it is extremely important to make sure your network and IT infrastructure are secure from potential attacks.
Keeping your network safe
Good network security is not just about antivirus solutions, it is about user education and forward planning – COMPUPORT will carry out a detailed inspection and analysis of your network infrastructure, disaster recovery solution and user environment and recommend any adjustments to your configuration or user paterns that may offer a potential security weakness that could inversely impact your business.
Viruses and spyware
Lost productivity when a PC becomes infected with a virus is frustrating – work can grind to a halt and in extreme cases business critical data can be lost. Even if you have already purchased antivirus software, you may not be fully secured as the majority of antivirus software deployments within a business still leave various security holes which could be a threat to your network.
Spyware can also slow your network and computer(s) down but more importantly it can be used to gather private and confidential business sensitive information that may later be used for fraudulent purposes.
