Managed security
A secure infrastructure is key to a successful organization. With the rapidly changing world of network security and the ever-increasing incidents of hackers, worms, viruses, employee sabotage and more, you need the best security possible to protect your organization.

It takes more than a firewall. Organizations need experts who are certified and highly trained in the latest network security products and services. Experts who know how to build a solution that best protects networks, and who are available 24-hours a day, seven days a week. HITN provides a team that is focused and highly skilled at delivering unsurpassed service and first-class security to its organization. Additionally, the HITN team has expert knowledge on the latest equipment available to meet your organizations needs.

A Solid Foundation
An effective and reliable firewall is an essential part of any network security program. HITN's managed firewall service is built upon a foundation of industry-leading hardware and software platforms from Cisco and Check Point/Nokia. Cisco and Check Point/Nokia were selected specifically for their proven track record, performance history and overall reliability. This solid security platform allows HITN's managed security team to deliver the best available security management.

Each of HITN's managed firewall services offers stateful inspection technology, the industry standard in network security. With stateful inspection, the firewall scans all Web traffic attempting to cross your Internet gateway. Traffic that fails to comply with your defined policy is immediately blocked and discarded. This traffic filtering can be applied in both directions, effectively eliminating unauthorized use of the internet by people within your organization.

Dedicated Staff Around the Clock
Hardware and software are only part of the solution. Effective firewalls require sophisticated management. However, it is challenging and expensive to find, train and retain IT professionals with advanced security management expertise. HITN provides a staff of Cisco and Check Point security technicians dedicated to maintaining your network security in our state of the art Security Operations Center .
