Improving smart working

The recent emergency has impacted our lives in the most diverse aspects, for example changing the way of keeping in touch with friends and relatives thanks to video chats, that of studying with teleducation, and of course that of working. In the latter case, there was a real run-up to teleworking by companies and public administrations that were forced to use this solution that had not been properly addressed for years in Italy. The situation has then greatly increased access to online services of companies and PAs, which are frequently put under pressure and require perfect optimization to function properly.

Question of phases

The so-called phase 2 of the emergency with the partial loosening of the restrictive measures currently in place will see the reopening for certain categories of factories and artisans but obviously all entities that can work in smart working will have to continue to do so in order to maintain as much social distance as possible. As things stand, telework, which has now been cleared through customs and entered the lives of many of us, will remain of fundamental importance even in phase 3, the one that will finally take us out of the emergency. It is therefore necessary for companies and public administrations to equip themselves with the best infrastructure to manage teleworking practices in the best and most secure way possible.

Experts at work

The run-up to smart working, in most cases has been met with contingency solutions, and it is evident how the following steps will need to be better planned and organized. In addition to having to ensure high security standards for data protection and access certification, corporate and government networks will need to be “optimized” so that they can manage the proper allocation of resources to each user engaged in telecommuting. Again, Hypergrid’s team of experts can come to your aid by providing the ideal solution, designed according to the real needs and requirements of the company. We have already talked about HyperVPN, it is the service that allows access to the corporate network with maximum security and ease of use. With two-factor authentication it offers real control over who accesses the network, while data travels encrypted so it cannot be compromised or stolen. If HyperVPN can provide a high-performance network, what is needed to improve infrastructure management is HyperCut an effective modulator that can be integrated with enterprise VPN management. Its job is to provide the correct resources to those who work in addition to providing a Firewall management service to block intrusions and dangers from Internet traffic.

Defining roles

Thanks to HyperCut, it is possible to define the “role” of who logs in, at what times they can operate, and which areas of the server they can use. Of course, the service is fully configurable to the needs of administrators. Thanks to the so called Endpoint security it will also be possible to define which software and applications the user will be able to use. More importantly, the system is able to check from which computer access is occurring, if there is any unpermitted software or if the system is infected with malware. If this situation occurs HyperCut will temporarily block access so that the user is notified and the situation is resolved. In addition to correctly assigning resources to those working in the network, HyperCut allows you to manage and configure access to any online services offered by the company or government. This is an essential service for improving the performance and security of networks and telecommuting sessions. To achieve these results, Hypergrid makes use of state-of-the-art technologies, such as always-up-to-date firewalls and IDPS (intrusion detection and prevention systems) software designed to detect and prevent possible intrusions, as well as SIEM technologies that provide real-time system monitoring and management and usage data collection.
