Completed CompTIA Security Trustmark+

I am very happy to announce that, we successfully completed our annual review for the CompTIA Security+ Trustmark. We view this as a big differentiator between us and our competitors. While many organizations claim that they have good security practices in place, it is impossible for them to prove it. We submit Quanexus to an annual review of our security practices, where a third party, independent auditor reviews our polices, controls and practices. Our practices are based on the CompTIA Security+ Trustmark, which is based on NIST’s (National Institute of Science and Technology) Cybersecurity Framework.

This is important for several reasons. The first is, some of our clients operate in regulated industries, such as finance and medical. These organizations that operate in regulated industries are required to perform vendor due diligence; they need to prove that they are working with “trustworthy” vendors. By having a third party, independent auditor review our controls, it makes it easier for our clients to work with us.

The second reason we do this is, if we are going to consult and perform services in these industries, we have to understand and meet the same or very similar requirements that our clients have to meet. This provides us a much deeper understanding of the process and controls needed to operate.

Thirdly and most importantly, we take security very seriously! We need to be continually learning and adopting to the changes in the world that affect us. The CompTIA Security Trustmark+ helps us keep a keen focus on the evolving security landscape and helps us continually improve.

How to better plan for 2019 in two hours

How can you better plan for 2019 in just two hours?

The end of the year is quickly approaching. Have you started planning for 2019? Every business owner knows that planning for a yearly budget is much easier when you know what IT projects are upcoming, or what equipment needs to be replaced. A good place to start is with a free network assessment.

Utilizing this complimentary service can give you a look into where vulnerabilities and problems may exist on your network and its equipment. Regularly reviewing your network is vital in ensuring it is running at peak performance and is protected from data loss, downtime, viruses and breaches.

If your system is not regularly monitored, assessing your infrastructure is critical. Businesses often fall behind in upgrades and compliance simply because they are busy running their business. Having a third party evaluate your network can give you a peace of mind and can catch issues you may not know exist.

The process is conducted on site at your office and generally takes anywhere from one to two hours to complete. Based on our findings we will compile a list of suggestions and concerns and present them to you at a later date. There is absolutely no obligation to move forward with our recommendations, or to purchase any services or equipment from us.

The benefits of a network assessment can give you an excellent snapshot of where your business is technologically and can help you to develop an action plan to keep your systems up to date and running optimally.

Request your free network assessment today. There is no hassle, or obligation.

MSP stands for Managed Services Provider. What are the benefits of having an MSP?

  1. Predictable IT support costs
  2. Improved network security
  3. Less downtime, leading to more productivity

  5. Up to date and protected technology
  6. Access to highly trained IT professionals

  8. Peace of mind

A managed service provider is a company that provides IT services from servers, networks and specialized applications to companies and organization.

Rather than relying on a break/fix or on-demand method of restoring IT functions, managed service providers offer ongoing monitoring of a company’s networks and systems. Some examples of what an MSP may manage are data backup and recovery, network monitoring, managed firewalls, voice IP, and virtual private networks (VPN).

For many companies, entering into an MSP agreement with an IT company creates predictable IT support costs, and is an efficient way for companies to stay up to date on technology, as well as have access to highly trained IT professionals.

Quanexus offers our own MSP program – Q-Works. Q-Works is a complete managed services package, which means you will see increased performance, security and reliability immediately and at an affordable price.
