• Providing Fibre to the Premises and Fibre to the Cabinet, 4G and 5G connectivity options, MPLS networks, and SASE/SD‑WAN solutions are all completely plausible choices for an SME. These technologies — once considered the preserve of large enterprises — have become widely available and more affordable, enabling businesses of any size to realise the potential of securely and reliably powering a distributed, remote, or hybrid workforce.

  • SASE and SD-WAN are modern, integrated solutions designed to secure and optimise multiple aspects of your business network. They combine network and security functions to deliver consistent performance, simplify management, and reduce complexity across locations and cloud environments. Creating networks and policies based on Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) means adopting a “nothing is trusted until all criteria have been satisfied” approach. This ensures your workforce can connect from anywhere while keeping corporate data protected, and it provides continual authentication and posture assessments to verify that both the user and the device remain compliant.

  • Providing support for Switching and Wireless is essential for any modern business. Implementing effective network segmentation restricts devices’ ability to communicate across the network, thereby reducing the potential security exposure from an attack. Secure Wireless solutions now enable SMBs to enforce NAC policies (Network Access Control) — ensuring your wireless network is accessible only to approved corporate devices removes the risk posed by weak or shared wireless passwords or by staff members inadvertently adding guests to the corporate LAN to provide internet access. Offering a dedicated Guest Wireless service for visitors and customers both enhances your professional image and maintains stronger overall network security.

Networking

Providing network support to SMBs is a vital requirement. Gone are the days of “plug and play” when it comes to security — modern networks need deliberate design, careful monitoring, and ongoing maintenance. Don’t let your business fall foul of improper password sharing on your WiFi, staff connecting to the corporate network with personal devices, or the risk of corporate data being copied onto non‑compliant machines and sensitive documents slipping out of your control.
