Network Infrastructure
|
|
|
|
An organization's ability to deliver results is strongly determined by its backbone,
i.e. IT Infrastructure. Rapid technological developments have made IT-related decisions
simply 'complex'. Today building a converged network infrastructure that is reliable,
scalable and cost-effective involves integrating multi-vendor solutions, products
and technologies.
|
|
|
|
US Technology Network infrastructure group has in-house talent which has deployed: |
|
|
 |
Structured Cabling solutions.
|
|
|
|
|
Converged Local Area networking solutions. |
|
|
|
|
Converged Wide Area networking solutions. |
|
|
|
The entire Infrastructure has been designed and built using the expertise of our
own Engineers who are skilled in deploying an entire range of networking products
like Cisco, Nortel, Foundry and Enterasys to name a few.
|
|
|
|
Designing the network involves an assessment of the current infrastructure, anticipating
the future requirements, designing an optimal solution and finally deployment of
the solution. We use world-class quality standards such as SEI CMMi and PMI to deploy
these complex projects.
|
|
|
|
Convergence
|
|
|
|
Technology today enables convergence of data, voice and video in a single network
enabled by IP as opposed to traditional networks which carry data, voice and video
separately. US Technology has used its expertise & experience in the convergence
practice to implement it internally across the enterprise spanning continents.
|
|
|
|
Some of the advantages of converged network are:
|
|
|
|
|
Simplified network layout and easily deployable.
|
|
|
|
|
Increased agility and higher productivity. |
|
|
|
|
Reduced capital and operating expenditure
|
|
|
|
|
Higher ROI and reduced TCO
|

|
Wireless |
|
|
|
Wireless technology enables a higher degree of mobility and network access - "Stay
connected anytime, anywhere". As more unique applications of wireless technology
appear, enterprises are migrating towards 'unwired' connectivity. Some of the key
benefits include:
|
|
|
|
|
Mobility: Anywhere, Anytime access to real-time information. |
|
|
|
|
Easy Deployment: A wireless system is easy to deploy without the hassles of wiring
an entire office. |
|
|
|
|
|
The pre-deployment assessment includes: |
|
|
|
|
Discovery workshop: a study is undertaken to understand the functional, technical
and security requirements. |
|
|
|
|
Feasibility assessment : feasibility of implementing a wireless solution is determined
and an appropriate solution is deployed
|
|
|
|
|
Network Design: Network Design and Topology is determined after taking into consideration
security issues.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Security
|
|
|
|
Unauthorized access, Denial of Service, Confidentiality breaches and Data destruction
are some of the common problems faced by organizations worldwide. Security assumes
paramount importance in today's enterprise business context because as technologies
advance, so do threats and breaches It is therefore imperative for enterprises to
consider and address the risks associated with technology enabled workplaces.
|
|
|
|
It requires best-in-the-class technology and specialist engineers to assess, design,
develop and implement a comprehensive enterprise security framework that will safeguard
the company's information assets.
|
|
|
|
Our comprehensive expertise in a range of solutions has enabled the organization
to fortify itself from the risks that are associated with security. Our security
solution is based on the BS 7799 framework. We have implemented solutions from key
security vendors like Cisco, Checkpoint, Trend Micro and various open source technologies
for securing our infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
We have defined a security policy that would strictly adhere to various standards
and guidelines such as COBIT, HIPAA, Sarbanes Oxley (SOX), RBI Guidelines, and Indian
IT act 2000 etc. Our capability also extends to auditing, designing and deploying
security solutions that would create a risk-free environment for our enterprise.
Some areas where we demonstrate expertise under the ambit of security solutions
are:
|
|
|
|
|
Physical, logical and perimeter security. |
|
|
|
|
Risk Assessment.
|
|
|
|
|
Audit to assess current and required security levels. |
|
|
|
|
Audit to assess technology requirements for security purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
BS 7799 audit and pre-certification services. |
|
|
|
|
Continuous assessment and audits of security technology and process. |
|

Infrastructure Management |
|
|
|
Organizations today face the challenge of managing the complexity of IT infrastructure
and trying to reduce costs. Another significant challenge is to unlock the value
and leverage the existing investments made in IT infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
We have been striving to bring new perspective to IT infrastructure management that
would alleviate the complexity of effectively managing the assets by monitoring
and managing key metrics such as availability and performance. We have implemented
solutions to proactively manage our critical assets and ensure that our business
is up and running.
|
|
|
|
Our daily activities cover the entire spectrum of IT infrastructure such as: |
|
|
|
|
Desktop management. |
|
|
|
|
Network management.
|
|
|
|
|
Systems and Application management. |
|
|
|
|
Data center management.
|
|
|
|
|
