Why Review your Network?
Is your business network and its security keeping up with cloud technology?
Is it keeping pace with changing requirements and enabling your digital evolution?
A network assessment can help. Many businesses skip regular network technology reviews – which can lead to failed cloud adoption projects. Problems occur mainly because the foundations to support cloud technology has not been able to evolve from the legacy network equipment that has been in place for many years (decades, in a lot of cases). The other side of this is businesses’ cyber attack surfaces are increasing and this is leaving huge gaps in security.
The Wide Area Network that a Business has today is often the result of years of changes, additions, and modifications. IT and Network Managers often find themselves repeatedly having to make adjustments to maintain performance and reliability, with changes becoming increasingly burdensome. Security improvements can also be difficult to keep on top of, and changing business requirements might be stretching or be limited by the existing network design.
An Independent Network Assessment Can Identify Gaps and Solutions
Blaze can help by performing an in-depth review of your business’ IT network. In our network assessment we will look for opportunities to improve your business’ IT network and also suggest how you could make the network easier to manage and how to address any gaps in your cyber security.
Blaze is a private network provider, who specialises in designing, delivering, and managing Software Defined network solutions with security built in from the ground-up. When performing a network assessment, we examine and report on:
- Existing network infrastructure
- The potential (or otherwise) for a network update or refresh to match anticipated business needs.
- Broadband availability and performance
- Compliance to PCI DSS and other relevant standards
- Network security, including a Vulnerability Scan of the network
- An assessment of existing hardware, covering such aspects as end-of-life and end-user support
- Future potential of any existing MPLS network.
- Feasibility of moving to a Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN)
We are offering this Network Assessment at no-charge (free) up to a value of £5,000 of consulting time (most Assessments would be completed within this).
The offer is available to businesses with an existing Wide Area Network.
Taking advantage of Blaze Networks’ assessment will determine if your infrastructure is capable of scaling with modern day cloud technologies whilst protecting your attack surface from cyber threats.
Please do get in touch – We’d love to discuss your network and to speak with you soon!
