NETWORK SETUP
Offices and home businesses depend on increasingly networked PCs - we optimize your systems and properly deploy your resources, maintain servers and add security patches and update anti-virus. On-going server monitoring and server updating with timely backup verification is our business.

CRITICAL >>  BACKUP
Many customers are not sure if the backup they setup is working!
Worse yet are those that have no backup at all, and are winging it - hoping that they won't get "caught". We can setup multi-layered backups and plan for disaster recovery the correct and professional way. This can even be done remotely. Windows 7 users can use the included backup software or add a complete backup system with detailed reports and options, SQL support etc.

COMPETENT SUPPORT
What's the one thing the big guys want to do? Minimize support costs - any way they can. Our customers prefer local support from technicians who are familiar with your systems &  goals. Our Master Technicians have  over 20 years experience - and they handle your tech calls promptly.

SECURE YOUR WIRELESS
Numerous wireless installations are left in the default WEP or unsecured state - not good!  We implement the proper WPA2 security features & passwords then print you a hard copy. If using WEP you should note it is considered easily cracked and not secure. Many cable and dsl providers will wimp out and use the WEP mode as default. It must be changed to WPA2 keep the hackers & kids out.

ANTI-SPAM
Kill spam dead with FIRETUST'S
MAILWASHER PRO
for Outlook and many other popular email clients including Thunderbird, YAHOO, AOL, ANDROID mail!

BLOCKS SPAM BEFORE it gets to your INBOX. Over 8 million users, Mailwasher Pro is a separate, intelligent spam filter that's cheap to own, highly adjustable and will cleanup your web or email client based inbox!
