How ASG Structures Their IT Support Contracts

IT Security

Safeguarding information systems is crucial to running a successful organisation today. A company’s capacity to function securely in the digital age depends on the integrity, privacy and availability of its information technology systems.

The effects of a cyberattack or data breach can be disastrous, from monetary loss and reputational harm to legal trouble. Firewalls, encryption, and multi-factor authentication are all crucial forms of information technology security that can be used to protect against these dangers.

A security plan is a vital part of every business strategy since the expenses of a breach might far surpass the investment in security measures. The importance of IT security goes far beyond the bottom line since it safeguards the confidence and loyalty of the business’s clientele. Consumers need assurance that their private data will be protected when they transact business with your organisation.

Our support contract includes:

• Upkeep of Patches
• Anti-virus and Anti-Ransomware Management
• Email Security and Firewall Management in the Cloud
• Filtering of the Online and Controlled Access to the Internet

Backup, Disaster Recovery and Security

Constantly checked backups are stored on a nearby NAS device. Your important data is backed up elsewhere and replicated to our data centre under constant surveillance. We alert and monitor for server backups. In the event of a disaster, not only are individual files and folders backed up, but entire servers and operating systems can be restored to completely different hardware.

All customers can make use of our free, constantly-monitored backup solution, which includes offsite replication of your crucial data.

As a result, you won’t have to worry about licensing for your backup solutions every year.

This will save you at least R20,750 a year if you use it on five high-priority personal computers and a couple of servers. The price of data storage in the cloud is in addition.

In order to protect your computers and servers from viruses and spyware, ASG will install antivirus and anti-spyware software at no cost to you, while subscribed to our IT maintenance programs.

This eliminates the yearly expense of updating your antivirus and anti-spyware software. There will be an annual savings of at least R7,000 if you have 20 desktop computers and a number of servers.
