Network Management The internetworking infrastructure - whether physical, wireless, or virtual - must adequately accommodate the landscape and communication needs of an organization. Selecting the right connectivity technology can not only impact uptime and throughput, but can actually reduce an organization’s costs. Businesses are exploring varying connectivity technologies, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPN), satellite, wireless, Frame Relay, and Voice Over IP (VoIP), to eliminate network downtime, data gridlock, and manageability challenges, thereby reducing costs. Nirico´s internetworking solutions help an organization determine the best infrastructure technologies to facilitate effective and efficient communication between applications and network services. We focus on designing the complex physical network - circuits, routers, cable plants, and switches - that optimizes the system’s performance and improves uptime, throughput, security, and manageability which include the following: Local Area Network Solutions A traditional LAN to support your critical business applications or to extend the boundaries of your LAN through the use of wireless communications. Wide Area Network Solutions Wide Area Network access technology, end-to-end quality of service, proactive network and application management, and network equipment integration. Remote Access / VPN Solutions Remote access and VPN solutions for secure and stable connectivity into the corporate network while working from home or on the road. Voice Over IP Solutions Applications requiring the convergence of voice, data, and video. These solutions drive potential costs savings by more fully utilizing the existing internetworking infrastructure, lowering transport costs, and simplifying management. Security Management Extending an organization via e-business involves opening its internal networks, systems, and software to the public. It is a challenge to ensure that these business systems are secure, reliable, available, and properly managed. Many organizations still are not properly protected from viruses and hacker attacks that could erode their customers’ trust and impact their bottom lines. Because the Internet and mobile/wireless technologies continue to change the way business is conducted, security is a matter of letting the right people in (securely) and keeping the wrong people out. Nirico understand that an effective security solution must address the network, systems, and applications. Effective security is a long-term process that requires planning, monitoring, and commitment. By developing a comprehensive security strategy, Nirico helps organizations determine the best way to secure their systems without compromising performance.
