Check
Hardware Router or Firewall for proper settings
and Security Best Practices:
A hardware
router/firewall provides necessary protection
for your network when you have an "always-on"
connection to the internet, but only if it has
been correctly configured.
We will check if any upgrades are available
for your router/firewall to provide additional security
features or correct any vulnerabilities. (Some
feature upgrades may require purchase of an
upgrade kit or a software unlock key from the
manufacturer and are not covered by this special
pricing.)
We
will attempt to configure the router/firewall to
incorporate as many security best practices as
it is capable of supporting (a process known as
"hardening"), and will advise you if we believe
that continued use of that particular
router/firewall poses an unacceptably high security risk to your
company.
We will
check to see if the router/firewall system login
account is still using the factory default
account name and password. We will work
with you to choose more a secure password and to
change the login account name, if supported by
your device, to a name that is not as easily
guessed by an intruder.
We will verify that the software
firewall settings on your desktop systems are providing
a second layer of
protection against both external attacks and
attacks that could be launched from other
computers on your internal network.
