Internet Security Tips for Businesses
Now, when Internet dependence has reached new heights, are we able to answer the most critical question – Is Internet Secure?
Instructions

Internet has become a lifeline for today’s businesses. Whether you are running an e-Commerce portal or a traditional business, you need Internet to run day-to-day operations. You may need to check the bank account information online or want to book air tickets without thinking twice that information can be viewed by others and misused. Now, when Internet dependence has reached new heights, are we able to answer the most critical question – Is Internet Secure?
A fragile network security can ruin the operations of your business. A world without internet security services would be very much similar to the living in a stone age. Without a proper plan against security threats you and your company are exposed to productivity distractions, liability risks and security problems. Seeing the phenomenal rise in Internet dependence, you cannot tame the Internet usage in your organization. Instead, you should opt for strategically devised Internet security plans. To develop an intrinsic and robust security system, you can start with the following pointers:
Draft a Strong Content Policy: Educate your employees about malware and virus hidden in content or web codes and which can damage the computing resources. Content policy should not hinder the work of your employees but should help to create a more productive environment while they choose to use Internet usage in office duration.
Central Anti-virus Software: Install anti-virus software that can be managed from a single point or server, and receive security updates. This centrally managed software will scan the entire network of PCs for Trojans, malware, worms, bugs and other security threats. Businesses can go for the software program that is either recommended by vendors or choose anyone that can be managed without much technical expertise. A service provider would though, take the time to study the organization and try to understand the internet usage. He would also handle the upgrades and maintenance of it. Some Internet service providers also provide corporate antivirus packages for Internet security with broadband connections.
Intrusion Detection Capable Firewall: Hackers have evolved with the times. Hacking has become more of an art form where they keep inventing codes to match up with the advancements in the network security. Worms such as Sasser and Code Red can sail through the ordinary firewall appearing as innocent as normal Internet traffic. So, firewall with Intrusion Detection Capability is able to detect, recognize and fend off the malicious disguised threats on your network.
Host-Based Intrusion Detection: While your Intrusion detection firewall will handle the external threats; the host based firewall will detect the accidental or intentional security threats arising within the network.
Digital Signatures: Digital signatures increase the reputation and credibility of web encrypted documents. If your business need to meet government regulations, digital signature becomes even more mandatory. For instance, an outsourcing service provider can secure the confidential documents with digital signature making sure that only the intended sender and recipient can access it. You can also take the help of third party internet security services provider for digital signature.
By adopting these reliable security measures into practice, any company ranging from a start up to Fortune 500 can secure its computing resources, information and data from malware, worms, viruses and hacking threats.

CCTV for the home? Logitech announces a new three camera security system they reckon can be set up on your PC in just 15 minutes. Katie Scott went to check it out.
Video Rating: 4 / 5
I didn’t catch a damn thing he said…
what happens if they steal the computer the software is on?
@384now.
Yes another computer can get to he streams and memory stored clips. The outdoor camera is visible color in the day and the IR turns on and it becomes night vision when the sun goes down.
No, the motion triggered video will stay on the micro SD card until the card is full. Then the oldest clips get overwritten. Usually about 3 days of video depending on sensitivity and zone settings. The computer downloads the video periodically when on
I need my computer turn on all time?
Question? my computer need turn on all time?
Lol
i have this cam set up it’s a JOKE it is such a POS. not a joke the only good cam is the outdoor one.
PLEASE HELP ME, SOMEONE INSTALLED A MEDICAL ALERT IN MY HOME ORBIT, ITS COSTANSTLY BEEPS LOUD WHAT IS WRONG., IT IS A DIRECT LINE TO THE 911 CENTER IN ATHENS ALA……CANDY PITTS 21789PINEY CHAPEL RD, ATHENS AL 35614 256-233-8574
What a cutie that interviewer!
What if they steal your computer? I would like to see the motion detector, storage drive, and camera all contained within the digital clock. Another great feature would be to send a still shot mms to your cell phone when triggered. Being able to tap into the system from your smart phone is another good idea. I see more refinement in the product offering on the horizon.
The outdoor cameras have a known defect (caps melting). They fail in about a year. This is due to the following four 1000uF capacitors: C26, C27, C31 and C32. The caps that were in the original release were 10 volt caps. The next release they were 16 volt. I had 7 dead cameras. I replaced them with a 25 volt high quality cap and they have worked ever since.

Sorry To Hear About That.
Great insight.
Hey some more amazing Ideas on home security at ESecureWorld(dat)Blogspot(dat)Com
Can we live stream and store on another pc outside of the home? If we can, we could stream and store at a friends house and they could store at ours or we could store online. That would solve the problem of the thief stealing the storage unit.
Also, is it infer red and do you have color cams available.
does it work on iMac???
I see! You mean that the PC based security system captures the perpetrator on one of the 6 cameras and when they break into your business or home, they take the computer with them. By the way is one of the most stolen pieces of equipment taken in a burglary. Makes sense to me. Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
dum. simmer dowm
yes you would have to have your comp on all the time. You should just get a stand alone unit which is designed specifically to be used for continuous use. the problem with having your security system linked to your PC is that your using online as well. youll need to enable active X which leads to many virus’s. i feel bad for the retail market, because they get sucked into stuff that not that good.
As wickedweekend asked previously, does the computer/laptop need to be on all the time?
Wouldn’t want to be leaving it on all day.
cool vid
