  • Our security experts remotely administrate all features.
  • Never has to be rebooted.
  • Saves money over other server solutions

Strong Firewall capability:

Our Firewall uses the packet filtering process. Every packet that is coming or going (out of the customers network, or arriving on the network) is examined and compared against a set of rules. The rules can be anything but by UIA convention, if a packet does not match a rule then it is ignored or discarded. Both Network translation and DHCP are included.

BENEFITS:
IP Addressing is handled by the server (DHCP). All the users have to do is hook up to LAN and they are surfing. Both servers and end users are completely protected from outside hackers.

Monitoring:

We monitor all basic features and all installed features. Things like disk space and cpu utilization are monitored every 5 minutes. These types of things might seem insignificant, but they are important to the overall health of the server. Once a disk fills up, then email will stop working. For example, If anything looks even the slightest bit out of place then our administrators are paged and notified. In many cases we are looking into any problem within minutes of the trouble.

BENEFITS:
Basic problems such as disk space, cpu utilization and network connectivity of the server are all handled remotely by UIA. In many cases UIA staff is addressing problems with the server within minutes. No more waiting for the consultant, and no fees for on-site visits!

Intrusion detection:

Our intrusion detection system automatically creates blocking rules for hack attempts. If a hacker even scans the network, he is cut off before they can cause any damage, automatically.

BENEFITS:
Whether they are old or new hacking methods, they are stopped at the Firewall before they reach the LAN or the customers servers. UIA automatically installs new anti-hacking rules within minutes of the new hacking method. All the servers behind the Firewall are protected.

Firewall Accounting:

Reports are sent each week of all activity on the Firewall. Get hack attempts and what was blocked, emailed every week automatically.

BENEFITS:
Customers can see all hack attempts that were blocked. Usually this is a weekly report but this can be set to any frequency.

IPSec/VPN:

All of our Firewall products have the ability to use IPSec/VPN. VPN just means that all packets that move between each side of the VPN are encrypted. For example; imagine that our Firewall (either the SOHO or the Full box) is at some corporate headquarters. Call this the HOST side. Then imagine that we have an IPSedc/VPN box installed at a home office. Whenever traffic goes between those two links then the traffic is automatically encrypted. Encrypted really just means that it is unreadable. If for some reason the traffic could be intercepted along the way, it cannot be read.

VPN is not a standard. Providers of other VPN solutions will not necessarily connect to ours or the other way around. Encrypted tunnels are important when two different locations are NOT on the same network. One could be on PacBell DSL and the other location may be on our DSL for instance. This would be ideal for a VPN solution.

BENEFITS:
Customers can connect to the home office from anywhere without fear of being "eavesdropped" by a hacker.

Web activity Tracking:

Web tracking reports of all the activity of company personnel.

BENEFITS:
Audit all employee web activity.


Mail Server:

Customers can manage all mail accounts with a web interface. Adding, deleting and changing account names and passwords are pretty straightforward. Our mail server has virus protection and spam prevention systems "out of the box". Standard Exchange installs do not have either of these features in place.

BENEFITS:
Easily control all mail accounts. Scans for viruses and has a built in spam prevention system. Every email leaving or arriving can be copied to an audit account for later examination by mangement.

IM Server:

IM is becoming more and more important. Our server comes with it's own Jabber server in place. It is more secure, since only the company personnel and associates can connect. The customer has full control of the chat server.

BENEFITS:
Get all the benefits of Instant Messaging while keeping all information secure. Limit or open up IM with vendors, off-site employees or customers.


Calendar and Contact:

Web based calendar and contact manager. Get the whole company on a web based calendar and contact manager no matter where they are located. Since it is on the web it can be accessed from home, office or really anywhere.

BENEFITS:
Set appointments, keep all company wide contacts in an easy to use Web interface. Access can be granted to any location the customer sees fit.
