Network Infrastructure & Security

Network infrastructure refers to the hardware and software resources of an entire network that enable network connectivity, communication, operations and management of an enterprise network.

AYC&T provides professional communication path and services between users, processes, applications, services and external networks/the Internet.

AYC&T Network infrastructure is typically part of the IT infrastructure found in most enterprise IT environments. The entire network infrastructure is interconnected, and can be used for internal communications, external communications or both. A typical network infrastructure includes:

  • Networking Hardware:
    • Routers
    • Switches
    • LAN cards
    • Wireless routers
    • Cables
  • Networking Software:
    • Network operations and management
    • Operating systems
  • Network Services:
    • T-1 Line
    • DSL
    • Satellite
    • Wireless protocols
    • IP addressing

AYC&T also helps overcome the risk on the services provided.

As increasingly more personal, financial, health-related, and other sensitive data is collected, processed and disseminated, protection of the infrastructure and the perimeters would demand more depth and breadth in knowledge, toolsets and other resources. Mostly organizations lack the expertise or the internal resources required to assess and enhance the security of their organization’s dynamic IT infrastructure and networks.
