FARMINGTON, Conn., March 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- What do iPhones, malware and public Wi-Fi areas have in common?  They can all pose significant threats to the safety and security of your computer network.  New threats such as these are emerging regularly and old ones continue to evolve.  In response, Walker Systems Support, a leader in network management, security and computer support services, announces the launch of their enhanced IT Security Service offerings.

Scot Smailes, CISSP and IT Security Manager at Walker defines the design of our P(3)ET IT Security offerings as a combination of services incorporating the People, Policy, Process, Education & Technology that will mitigate the risks to your network.  "Technology is always going to play an important part in the security of corporate networks, but today's new and emerging threats are also taking advantage of the weaknesses in the human element of network security." Smailes says. "As a result, all information security programs should include components that address the human vulnerability in addition to the technical vulnerabilities in code and configurations."  

Walker's IT Security offerings include:

IT Security Assessments provide an in-depth analysis of all the components that play a part in the overall security of your business, from an IT perspective.  

Vulnerability Scans identify known vulnerabilities in software or hardware configurations within select systems on your network.  This service is ideally situated as an interim measure between full security assessments to identify any issues that may have surfaced since the last full assessment.

IT Security Awareness Training is designed to educate users on the appropriate use, protection and security of information.  The long-term benefits to your organization of a successful security awareness program include enhanced awareness, increased security and improved productivity for employees and the company as a whole.

IT Security Policy Development provides the framework for the policies which are essential in any environment; without them your employees have no reference for accepted practices or processes and can therefore not be held accountable.  

At Walker, we offer a total solution that addresses the ever changing IT Security landscape.  Our CISSP certified staff will work with you and provide recommendations to help ensure compliance with your organization's IT Security goals
