How will Total Sentry protect me?
Total Sentry is a proactive managed security service. By monitoring your network on a 24/7 basis, we can evaluate and stop attacks on your digital resources. The combination of cutting edge technology and the knowledge of our security experts create a seamless solution.

Am I really at risk today?
Yes, viruses, malicious attacks, and hijacking of your resources should be major concerns for any organization with an always-on Internet connection. Viruses, by their very nature, propagate and affect anyone using the Internet. Malicious attacks may not seem like a major threat to the small to midsize business, but former disgruntled employees and competitive organizations are the leading perpetrators of such attacks. Resource hijacking is the least talked about of the three major categories, but is often the most dangerous. Hackers break into host networks looking for bandwidth and computing power to steal for their own purposes, often wrecking your system and at the very least, tying up your connections for hours or days.

Isn’t a firewall better?
Firewalls are only one part of a healthy network. They are extremely expensive to install, configure and maintain. Their biggest flaw is their inflexibility. Due to their complexity, expensive security experts are needed for the most minor change in configuration. Conversely, Total Sentry constantly combs the Internet for emerging threats and quickly updates all of our clients’ systems to head off such issues, creating a seamless, proactive solution.

Doesn’t anti-virus software protect me?
No, software virus protection is an important part of a healthy network, but it is, by no means, and end all solution. First, it is only concerned with reacting to viruses, just one threat facing businesses that rely on the Internet. Second, it only focuses on one machine, not the network as a whole. Third, and most importantly, it is only updated to new threats at the user’s prompt. Usually by then, there is only time for reactive damage control.
