SS Networks offer a free no obligation IT infrastructure audit. Our engineer will visit onsite to create an easy to understand no jargon report.

We feel that it is necessary to have as much documentation and information of your IT infrastructure to provide faster and proactive IT support to your business. Our audits are in plain English, we will not blind you with science and our audits will explain all the required technical concepts in understandable terms.

SS Networks will audit all of your network equipment such as Servers, Laptops, Desktops, firewalls, switches and routers. Once we have audited your network infrastructure we will provide you with a report containing our recommendations.

DOCUMENTATION:

Documentation is the most important part of any network. If your business has any kind of network problem, without up to date documentation, problems take a lot longer to fix. SS Networks will document your current network configuration and give advice on how the network can be made more resilient and efficient.

BACKUP CONFIGURATIONS:

All of your network devices have configurations that need to be backed up so that they can be restored in case of equipment failure. SS Networks will back-up your configurations and provide them to you as part of our infrastructure report.

FIRMWARE:

It is important to keep your network equipment at the latest firmware levels, failure to do so may mean that your network is open to known vulnerabilities and can be easily exploited.SS Networks will update all your network equipment to the latest firmware revisions.

REDUNDANCY:

Is your business reliant on one network device? How long would it take your business to recover if this device fails? SS Networks will advise on how to build redundancy into your network to reduce or eliminate the amount of downtime if any hardware fails.

SECURITY:

Your business network needs to be highly secure to protect your critical business data. SS Networkswill make recommendations on how to improve the security of your network from malicious attacks.

NETWORK DIAGRAM OF YOUR IT INFRASTRUCTURE:

Once we have completed our audit we will present you with a fully documented network diagram which will provide you with all the critical information you require to respond instantly in case of any problems with your network. We will use this diagram in our presentation to explain where potential bottlenecks and resiliency issues may currently be affecting your network performance.

SERVERS AND COMPUTERS:

Your servers, desktops and laptops are the core of your business and need to have your equipment available 100% of the time. SS Networks can ensure your computers are in prime condition and as part of our audit provide the following services.

We will document your current server hardware and create a report that shows where all of your essential network services are currently located. We will also provide a data map so that you can see where your data is currently stored.

HARDWARE:

SS Networks will document the vendor, model and serials of all computer equipment to provide instant support for any issue. Using this information we can advise you regarding the warranty status of any machine and provide you with an upgrade plan as hardware comes out of vendor support or to the end of serviceable life.

OPERATING SYSTEMS:

We will upgrade the operating systems to the latest windows security standards and harden your servers against any exploits.

SOFTWARE:

We will audit your business software and look into the software licensing models that you employ. We can advise you if you can make cost savings using a different licensing model.

SERVER AND DESKTOP SECURITY SOFTWARE:

When a PC or server becomes infected with a Virus or Spyware you will discover just how vital it is to have some kind of protection. In these stressful situations you may find your work grinding to a halt. Furthermore it can be extremely upsetting to know that you have a current anti-virus solution which has not been discovered or resolved the problem.

SS Networks will check your current Anti-Virus and Spyware solutions to make sure that your equipment is protected from attack. SS Networks will ensure that each piece of equipment is covered by an Anti-Virus product that is up to date and working as it should.
