Vulnerability Assessments
Do you know how secure your computer and networks really are? Software updates, Anti Virus definitions, firmware patches, and insecure settings can open you up to many different types of attacks. Hackers and sophisticated users alike can use your computer systems as zombies to spread spam and distribute illegal software and music, opening you up to potential lawsuits, Internet disruptions and even RCMP investigations. Having WSL Technologies assess your systems can easily identify any issues for you before they cause you real problems.

Firewalls
Adding hardware or software firewalls to your networks greatly increases control and security. Safeguards can be added to control traffic from both inside and outside your company, preventing misuse, lost productivity and keeping unwanted elements at bay. Firewalls do not have to be expensive, but they do need to be set up correctly to be effective at protecting your information.

Antivirus
In the first half of 2004, 70% of all the viral damage done to connected computers across the world can be pinned down to one individual. Computer viruses attacking unprotected machines can have devastating effects on the systems they prey on. Viruses commonly steal company contacts to spam your clients, upload private information such as credit card information to foreign servers, install keystroke loggers to record passwords and bank numbers as they are typed and can even activate your web cam to indulge in voyeuristic activities at your expense. WSL Technologies can help you stop viruses in their tracks by using the correct software to protect you without loss in productivity. Viruses can be removed from your E-mails and software without damaging files or information, all in the blink of an eye.

Anti-SPAM
In the last year we have seen an enormous outbreak of unwanted e-mail. The better anti-SPAM software on the market uses multi-layered filtering engines and state-of-the-art technology to keep inboxes clean and free of spam. These will address offensive content and potentially dangerous identity theft scams to keep you and your computer safe.

System Lockdown
Workstation Lockdowns can be used to finely control user access and actions on a system. Lockdowns can increase employee productivity, reduce liability and protect your assets and information. Lockdowns can be combined with Access Control systems, encryption and network controls such as IPSEC to create a bulletproof system.

Palm & PDA Security
Lost or stolen PDAs are liabilities. They often contain sales contacts or company information that can be used against you. Secure your PDA with software that autodestructs the information in your PDA if the password is incorrectly entered a pre-determined number of times. Even locking down your PDA so only your staff can use them, and only for work purposes, can greatly increase productivity and peace of mind.

Encryption
Encryption services can be used to secure sensitive data from prying eyes, protect network backup media, and even protect data transfers over wired and wireless networks.
