Network and Security Assessment
The first step in securing your digital footprint is to assess your vulnerabilities. Our experts examine your entire system to identify server, endpoint, and network weak points, then give you a detailed report that includes our strategies for reducing or eliminating areas of concern. From OS patches to password policies to dark web monitoring, Summit IT Solutions has you covered.
Firewalls
Just as a fence and locked doors keep would-be thieves out of your house, firewalls deter hackers and malicious software from infiltrating your network. The experts at Summit IT Solutions can help you decide whether a packet filtering, stateful inspection or proxy firewall is best for your company.
Security Operations Center (SOC)
Make Summit IT Solutions your first line of defense online. Our cybersecurity consulting services include dedicated 24/7 monitoring of your entire infrastructure with real-time threat detection and lightning-fast responses. As your SOC, we’ll deliver unified and coordinated security that’s efficient and cost-effective. Elevate customer confidence and make industry privacy compliance a breeze with Summit’s SOC power.
Antivirus Packages
Don’t rely on one-size-fits-all “free” antivirus software or waste money on packages that include elements you don’t need or won’t use – or worse, install multiple third-party antivirus programs that end up crashing your system. Let Summit IT Solutions develop a targeted antivirus strategy that suits your company’s size and system needs.
EDR / MDR / XDR Options
Staying ahead of cyber threats is tough. Summit IT offers detection and response solutions that go beyond antivirus software to detect zero-day threats – those that have not been identified yet. From Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) – an integrated endpoint security solution combining real-time continuous monitoring and collection of endpoint data with rules-based automated response and analysis capabilities – to managed detection services (MDR) and extended platforms (XDR) that consolidate threat detection across your entire company’s infrastructure, real-time monitoring and automated responses provide serious peace of mind.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)
- Real-time threat detection
- AI-driven speed and accuracy
- Improved organizational efficiency
- Detection of both advanced and unknown threats
- Meaningful post-incident forensics
- Streamlined auditing and compliance reporting
- Remote workforce transparency
Password Protection
Is your team mired in passwords that are out of date, easily guessed or tracked on sticky notes all over the office? The Summit IT experts can make everyone’s life a little easier with password management solutions that store all usernames and passwords in a secure digital vault. Plus we’ll help your team understand what makes some passwords riskier, and we’ll monitor the dark web for alerts on items from your vault. We can also create Multi-Factor Authentication systems that help keep your data even safer.
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security system that requires more than one method of authentication from independent categories of credentials to verify the user’s identity for a login or other transaction. These categories can include something the user knows (like a password), something the user has (like a security token), or something the user is (like a fingerprint). MFA adds an extra layer of security to help ensure that unauthorized users are not able to access sensitive information or perform malicious activities. Implementing MFA is important because it significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, data breaches, and identity theft by making it much harder for attackers to compromise user accounts. This is especially crucial in today’s digital landscape where cyber threats are prevalent and constantly evolving.
