Keeping a Close Watch
The physical security of your onsite IT equipment—and of notebooks, projectors and gear that employees take out of the office—is as important as network and data security. Theft, fire, overheating or water damage are as much realities as computer viruses, spyware and network intrusions, and can be as or more disruptive to operations and your company’s bottom line.

A Job Well Done
Small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with distributed environments can use many of today’s products to consolidate their remote office backup, thereby economizing and gaining control for legal and corporate governance compliance while adding a level of disaster protection.

A Tiered Approach to Data Management
To address the ever-increasing need for data storage, companies must begin establishing a tiered storage strategy. By using higher-end disk devices for the most regularly accessed data and archiving unused data in a lower tier, businesses can reap the benefits of greater efficiency.

An Introduction to Networking and Unified Communications
Network infrastructures must provide dynamic and scalable services that not only deploy easily, but also allow businesses to add functionality as required. And IT managers have an obligation to decrease the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and increase ROI while still meeting the functional challenges of the data center. With unified communications IT departments can offer streamlined communication solutions and advanced productivity applications throughout the network.

At Your Service
To deliver optimal service, your e-mail servers, database servers, Web servers and other server based applications need the proper software. Servers, like desktop and notebook computers, need management — even when they’re working perfectly. This is especially true if there are problems, ranging from increased service demands to security updates that need to be applied.

Case Studies

Aligning Network Security with Business Goals
If your IT staff is busy plugging holes to keep the gateway secure, you may want to take a step back. Now is a good time to assess your potential risk, and that includes involving the entire team. No doubt, a layered approach with firewalls at the perimeter, intrusion detection and role-based access are all significant pieces of the security puzzle. Still current wisdom suggests that securing the network should work from the inside out and involve IT as well as business managers.
The trend is moving to a more holistic approach to security, reflecting the ongoing need for IT professionals to work closely with business managers to effectively advance a security strategy throughout the organization.

Allied Solutions Moves IP Telephony System to CDW Data Center
As part of a larger outsourcing project, Allied Solutions decided to outsource their IP Telephony infrastructure to take advantage of the stability, security, and redundancy that a data center could offer.
