Security First

You can’t know your network is as secure as it can be unless an independent, third party has audited it. It is also impossible to know whether your backups would work when needed unless they have been tested.

Centrend can conduct an audit of your firewall, security policies, and backup systems to give invaluable feedback as to how your current system stacks up vs. generally accepted best practices. By the time your audit is complete, you will be able to sleep better at night knowing your systems are reasonably secure and safe; or you’ll have a definitive action plan in front of you that will make them so!

PCI COMPLIANCE

If your organization accepts credit cards, there are specific standards you must follow. If you are not in compliance with these standards, the penalties can be severe, not to mention the risk of a lawsuit from affected parties. Centrend can help you perform a thorough, independent audit of your PCI Compliance to make sure you are operating within the standards.

Centrend can you prepare for and minimize the damage caused by any disaster:
Why plan for disaster? There is only one reason: To minimize the interruption to your business.
