With today’s networks becoming more complex Computer Systems Support & Design helps Fairfield County, Connecticut businesses determine where and why network are causing problems, and illustrate how to get your network ready to support your business at peak efficiency.
A network assessment will measure and analyze performance of the following:
- Computer Network devices – switches, routers, hubs, etc. Includes capacity issues related to CPU, memory, buffer management, link/media utilization, and throughput.
- Applications – e-mail, VoIP, FTP, Telnet, etc. Information consists mostly of bandwidth used by applications or devices.

We recommend to take a top down approach to network security, developing a policy that defines what it is you need to protect and from what.
Understanding why protecting those assets are important enables you to communicate the need to your employees so that they understand their role in helping to secure the environment.
To begin developing your organization's network security best practices, you need a three step approach: preparation, organization and execution.
Preparation includes understanding what levels of security are appropriate to your organization and defining acceptable use policies of systems and data by category of users; conducting a risk analysis to identify possible security exposures in the network and assigning a risk level based on what could occur if that system was compromised.
Equipped with your security policies and risk analysis, you can now address the issues that need to be resolved based on risk to the organization, beginning with the highest risk category and working down the list.
Computer Systems Support & Design can help you execute the policies by defining your organization's security best practices, leveraging our extensive knowledge in vulnerability and risk assessment to develop a plan, conduct a risk analysis, and provide you the tools to find and fix security issues.
