Network Security

Data is one of your most important business assets. Keeping your data secure is a vital aspect of preserving the heath of your business. Internet and social network sites can be important tools for your business, but they can also be the tools that cyber criminals and malicious people use to infiltrate your precious data. That’s why you need a security strategy that prevents the loss of information and productivity.

Don’t wait until you have serious issues. By the time a virus reaches your computer, it may be too late. Call Vertex Computer today and schedule one of our specialists to analyze your network, computers, onsite systems and server. We will resolve current issues with scare-ware, spy-ware and viruses, and we will make sure you have the necessary firewalls to keep your network and your personal data secure. A firewall with built in anti-virus, anti-spyware, and web blocking protects your computer and network by blocking unauthorized connections from the outside world. Your Vertex technician can also design a program that makes sure you stay secure with our offsite monitoring using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). The VPN will allow us to ensure your security systems are kept updated and active.

You need to focus on what you are good at: your business, not your computer security.

Potter Park Zoo

Thanks to Vertex Computer, tens of thousands of Potter Park Zoo visitors had a chance, this fall, to see our three Amur tiger cubs while they were in our nursery. The camera and computer system, donated by Vertex, allowed us to monitor the late stages of the mother tiger’s pregnancy and the birth of the cubs. Dr. Tara Harrison, the zoo’s veterinarian, was able to access the video feed from home which made it much easier to keep an eye on things. Having the Vertex video surveillance system helped save the life of the cubs. After the cubs were born, we used the Vertex system to monitor the cubs and mom. By the second day, it was obvious from the video feed that there was a problem. Closer examination by zookeepers and lab reports confirmed that the cubs had been born with pneumonia. They had to be pulled from their mom, given emergency medical treatment for several weeks and had to be hand-raised. All of us at the Potter Park Zoo are extremely grateful to the owner and staff of Vertex Computer. With their generous assistance and technical expertise, three highly endangered Amur tiger cubs are healthy, happy and give us hope that this species will survive.
