The office is expanding. No longer are computer resources tied to the desk, but roaming and home based connectivity is becoming a standard requirement. As the perimeter of the network expands, so do the potential threats. Netstore enables the business to achieve secure and authenticated remote connectivity to required applications and services, whether from trusted or un-trusted remote devices.
Employees located at branch and regional offices, at home or on the road, need the same access to corporate information and applications as staff based at HQ. Netstore can help you to identify the right solution for connecting remote workers to valuable corporate resources with secure authentication and the encryption of data to protect the network integrity.
Regional/Branch Offices
Traditionally, organisations have installed expensive direct connections between remote locations to enable secure remote access. Advances in security technology mean that internet-based VPN can be combined with less expensive broadband connections to provide a much more cost-effective option for connecting locations.
Home Working
Equip your employees in home offices with robust access to enterprise applications to help maximise productivity while also reducing IT support burdens, keeping costs low, and ensuring secure information exchange, via their broadband connections
Mobile Working
Unsurprisingly, Wi-Fi has grown rapidly in popularity and mobile users now expect to be access the internet and corporate networks at any time, from any where. But while this connectivity comes without wires, it does come with security concerns over protecting user credentials, data stored on mobile devices and session data. Controlling costs can also be an issue, as mobile workers can incur expensive connection rates.
Netstore can provide solutions which let mobile users obtain the productivity benefits of using public Wi-Fi hotspots while protecting corporate assets with strong authentication and data encryption technologies. Our solutions also enable you to maintain policy-based control over access such as forcing the use of VPNs, personal firewalls and anti-virus programs and ensuring the latest operating system patches are in place before enabling access to your corporate networks.
