Worry Free Firewall in Small Business
Small Business Challenges
Small businesses have enough pressure in the current recessionary climate just to stay afloat. Growing sales, keeping customers and cutting costs are all that really count. Given these priorities, having to deal with other less obvious business risks has taken a back seat for many small business owners. Like having staff wasting time on the Internet whilst you’re out closing deals. Like facing a “hostile environment” lawsuit from an employee who’s been offended by another surfing porn sites in your office. Like having your customer records exposed on the Internet.
Unfortunately running a small business means having to take care of these risks, too, whilst maintaining your focus on the core business. You need to protect customer records, control what employees can and cannot do on the Internet, and monitor what’s going on whilst you’re out of the office, without it becoming a full-time job of its own.
Protect your business
Worry Free Firewall provides a secure Internet Gateway that acts as your first line of defense against all of these risks. The Worry Free Firewall Gateway puts you back in control. Our web filtering solutions ensure that employees can only see what you want them to see online, avoiding the risk of one of your staff being offended by a colleague’s web browsing. These same web filters ensure that your staff stay focused on work-related matters, too, especially whilst you’re out of the office meeting with clients. At the same time, Worry Free Firewall protects the computers in your business from outside attacks. By preventing unwanted intrusions into your network and protecting against Trojans entering your systems, you protect against loss of customer data.
