Pierce
Technologies
works with
clients to best
provide the
security level
they need.
Security is
dictated by type
of data you are
protecting, the
network
landscape and
government
requirements.
Every client is
unique but here
are some general
tools we use to
protect our
clients.
We recommend
Grisoft AVG Anti
Virus software
to our clients.
This software
works as well at
virus control as
any but it works
better with
industry
specific
applications
that many
clients run. For
more
information:

We use a tool
from Spybot to
help eliminate
pests. This is a
shareware
program that can
be found at:
http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=home
For pop up
protection from
a shareware
provider,
ZoneAlarm is a
current
solution:

There are many
firewall
solutions we
employ. One
popular,
business
solution is
Black Ice –

Please employ
all the standard
security
measures. Do not
open email from
people you don’t
know. Reboot if
you think you
have an
intruder. Don’t
install upgrades
or say “yes” to
any internet pop
up from a source
you don’t
recognize.
For employers,
revisit your
employer manual.

for articles on
how employers
can word
employee manuals
to protect their
systems from
employee
surfing.
