At Lucid IT Services we focus on providing IT Security solutions that address the biggest challenges organisations face from modern security risks. We have identified a range of enterprise-class solutions that are extremely scalable and cost effective for organisations of all sizes.
Having the flexibility to offer solutions to organisations with five to many thousands of users, has allowed us to help small businesses, schools, colleges, universities and councils across the UK.
Listed below are some of the common IT security problems organisations face and the solutions we offer:
“Many of our users access the network remotely. What if someone guessed their passwords?”
The Solution – Strong authentication solutions from VASCO
Strong authentication refers to a method of authenticating users using multiple factors. Lucid recommends VASCO’s strong authentication solution that uses small physical devices to generate a one-time password, which is virtually impossible to hack or break. |
“Many users have laptops. How can we protect our data if they are lost or stolen?”
The Solution – Data encryption solutions from UTIMACO
In a world where laptops, PCs and memory sticks are lost every day, the need to protect data has become a necessity. Lucid has found that UTIMACO’s proven range of security solutions provide advanced protection of data stored on hard disks and removable media preventing any unauthorised access. |
“We need to allow the use of Instant Messenger. How can we monitor its usage?”
The Solution – IM management solutions from BARRACUDA and FACETIME
Lucid offers hardware and software solutions from Barracuda and Facetime that monitor inbound and outbound IM traffic and prevent viruses and restricted file types from being transmitted. |
“Our users are still getting nuisance emails and Viagra offers.”
The Solution – Anti-Spam solutions from BARRACUDA
Lucid recommends Barracuda anti-spam appliances which offer twelve layers of defence from spam and viruses. These appliances filter email before it reaches your email servers, are virtually maintenance free, compatible with all email servers and have no per user licence fee. This makes them extremely cost effective for organisations with ten to hundreds of thousands of users. |
“How can I protect our workstations from spyware? We have installed Windows Defender!”
The Solution – Web filtering solutions from BARRACUDA and FINJAN
The need to protect workstations from web based threats and to monitor Internet usage has become a necessity for most organisations. Lucid recommends appliances from Barracuda and Finjan that filter threats at the gateway before they reach the internal network. These solutions use advanced techniques to identify potential threats and Finjans’ solution is one of the few available to provide true “day zero” protection from malicious code. |
