Networking and Security

What is Digital Security?
Digital Security is the precautionary protection of your online identity. This means not providing your information online where others can see it. This can include your full name, address, passwords, bank information, etc.

What is its importance?
Digital security seems to hold much importance, and you must be wondering why that is the case. It is worth noting that this being the information age; people rely so much on digital technology for most of the things. Businesses, schools, and hospitals to mention a few have employed these technologies in their operations. This means that there is so much data that is available on the platforms.

That fact alone poses a threat to individual and business data. Here are the reasons why cybersecurity needs to be taken seriously.

Data is valuable
Without data, there is no continuity in business. The cost of data breaches is exceptionally high. There is so much that a company can lose. Financial loss is not the only thing that a business will suffer. There is also the risk of a ruined reputation. In fact, most small companies do not survive data breaches: 60 percent of them close only six months after an attack.

Our security services protect you against external attacks and misuse of your digital assets and intellectual property. This is provided by a combination of leading tools and technology, years of expertise in the field, and strong investments in innovation and research.

The Digital Environment, riding on the wave of digital transformation, faces challenges and threat scenarios that need to be assessed and understood with a fresh acumen.

Cloud, Mobile, Big Data and IoT offer an integrated & complex environment, and are exposed to new types of threats e.g. the unauthorized data leakage to cloud, lack of device governance in IoT, fake applications on mobile environment, file-system security, among others. Cyber Analytics integrates with all other services, includes historical analytics, machine learning & near-real time correlation, and generates valuable insights for deeper understanding.

Enterprises, irrespective of their size, face a range of information security vulnerabilities ranging from malware such as Trojans to sophisticated attacks that compromise day-to-day operations. The threat is more so for companies that handle large amounts of customer data. IT security is also of paramount importance to comply with various government and regulatory requirements.

Disaster Planning

Does Your Organization Have a Digital Disaster Recovery Plan?

It is, in part, human nature to expect that worst-case scenarios never actually materialize. And because we carry our human natures with us when we head into the office, our expectation that truly devastating negative scenarios are rare come with us. Unfortunately, bad things do sometimes happen – and when they do, it’s important that your business be prepared to deal with and recover from whatever comes its way.

In the pre-Internet era, disaster recovery plans concerned themselves in large part with things like fire, flood, earthquakes, and other physical calamities. But in today’s connected environment, disasters of a digital nature can be every bit as devastating as physical disasters, and potentially even more so. That’s why digital disaster recovery plans are vital to any business, and should be developed alongside of and in conjunction with more traditional business continuity plans. Such plans will be invaluable to your IT team, and will help you prepare a coordinated response that helps your company recover after a devastating cyberattack, data breach, or other digital disaster.

Installing Data Backup Methods
In a disaster, data is liable to be stolen, corrupted, compromised, or lost. The implications for this data loss can vary from one company to the next, but for many businesses, lost data can cripple operations even after systems are back online.

Data backup solutions should be identified ahead of time to properly store and protect data, and a backup recovery plan should be included in your larger disaster recovery plan.

Identify what data is saved and where, and organize a process for restoring this data as systems return to normal. Use your mobile device management solution to review devices within the network and re-install updates and software patches that were lost along with the data breach.

Identifying Where You Can Turn For Support
Disaster recovery efforts will place great strain on your organization, especially within your IT department. A little support can go a long way, and it helps to know which organizations can offer assistance.

In the aftermath of a security disaster, make sure you know which software vendors offer IT support for disaster recovery, and find out whether they have stored copies of data that can be used to replace data you may have lost.

Cyberattacks and security breaches put your entire company at risk, and can take down your mobile device management system, website, services, and everything connected to the company’s information technology. It will take time to recover, but a disaster recovery plan will be instrumental in helping you find your way back while prioritizing your focus on the most critical systems at risk.

You may mirror SAP, landscapes, and other applications with time delays with our Hellointech.com disaster recovery plan and high availability in time. Therefore, your firm is not only secured from hardware and application error effects but also the repercussions of elementary damage, sabotage, or loss of data due to human mistakes.

DEFEND YOUR BUSSINESS WITH DISASTER RECOVERY PLANNING
Disaster don’t happen to us every day. However, we all do know they happen. And when they do occur, having strong emergency plan to place can sometimes make all the difference. Disasters can be especially detrimental for businesses whenever they occur in the realm of IT. By Planning ahead for the worst case scenario business are exponentially more likely to express resiliency and to bounce back quickly when the unexpected occurs. Having an in-depth backup and disaster recovery plan for your business is an advantageous first step to take for your tech security initiatives.

Managed Web Application

What is Application Management?


Application Management (AM) is the lifecycle process for software applications, covering how an application operates, its maintenance, version control, and upgrades from cradle to grave. Application management services are an enterprise-wide endeavor providing governance designed to ensure applications run at peak performance and as efficiently as possible, from the end-user experience to integration with enterprise back office functions such as database, ERP, and SaaS cloud functions such as CRM.

Why is application management important for the business?

Application management is a key factor in a business’ ability to innovate. By ensuring that business functions are being properly addressed with modern applications, business process solutions can be brought to market more efficiently, quickly, and at a lower total cost. When applications are efficiently managed, more IT resources are available to focus on new business challenges and competitive issues.

Additionally, effectively managed applications are more reliable and less prone to failure that could lead to loss of functionality. Thus, application management can reduce the risk of downtime and improve overall business continuity.

By incorporating new capabilities and monitoring user issues, application management can provide an enhanced end-user experience, which not only increases productivity but also helps accelerate the adoption of new applications or features.

The importance of application management to the bottom line is manifold. Efficient management strategies reduce person-hours spent in meetings, yielding higher productivity. Solid application management practices can reduce the need to retain expensive outside consultants, and lower overall operating costs as the number and frequency of application problems decrease.

Managed Web Application

Security of Web applications is a technique to safeguard websites and online services from various security threats which exploit weaknesses in an application code. Content management systems, database management tools, and SaaS services are common goals for attacks against web applications. At Hellointech.com, we provide firewalls for web applications to monitor incoming traffic to prevent attempts of attack and to offset any flaws in code sanitation.

Building a gorgeous web site is only the first step, maintaining the underlying code for system updates and future changes in search engine optimization techniques is an ever-evolving process. eVAL technicians can perform uptime monitoring, plugin updates, and search engine optimization scanning to ensure your web presence remains top-notch!

Hellointech.com can support a variety of web frameworks and technologies, but the two common applications we support are Core Plus and Word press.

The core responsibility of today’s enterprise IT department is to ensure that business critical applications are delivered to end users reliably, securely, and with minimal latency. Typically IT’s focus in optimizing application delivery is on how applications are architected and managed within the four walls of the data center. While necessary and valuable, this origin infrastructure oriented approach to application performance management is insufficient when—as is increasingly the case—applications are delivered to end users over the public Internet. For many of today’s business applications, application delivery performance inevitably depends on the quality of the Internet connection between the user’s device and the origin data center.

 

In a digital transformation world, your applications ARE your business. That’s where you interact with your customers, where you deliver value, and where your experiences differentiate your business. The problem is, the bad guys know that too. That’s why we are seeing an escalating war on web and mobile apps across every vertical in every market.

We defend EVERY app from attack, with a comprehensive application security portfolio, powered by a proven AI/ML engine, to slash fraud and abuse, prevents reputational damage, and eliminate business disruptions.

Services

Our Application Management Services (AMS) services go beyond the traditional AMS model by focusing on business optimization and innovation, not just point in time metrics, support, and Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

Deployment and Migration

Deployment and Migration

by | Sep 7, 2021 | Web Security, Web Management

Deployment and Migration

The tool-driven framework of Hellointech.com.com speeds up your business transformation processes with a sophisticated agile approach to planning and execution and provides more value to your cloud-enabled business transformation initiatives.

Take Your Success to the Next Level
with Migration and Deployment as a Service

Moving data from one location – whether it is a database, virtual machine or data center – to another can seem simple, but differences in functionality, architecture, workload management or other factors can make migration a huge challenge. Whether you’re looking to increase security, upgrade systems for better performance or migrate to the cloud, GEM Technologies provides migration and deployment as a service to make your transition as fast and seamless as possible, with little to no downtime.

Migration and deployment phases

The migration and deployment process can be divided into five major phases: planning, migrating, analyzing, backing up the system, and deploying.

Planning

During the planning phase, you review information such as assets, objects, hardware and software requirements, system and asset configuration, and other aspects of the source and destination environments. As you complete this review, you document this information. You also begin creating instructions for the migration and deployment process that can be refined over time.

Planning, in the form of developing and documenting each migration and deployment process, is a critical phase in the development of repeatable migration and deployment processes across the entire FileNet® P8 system. As the number of environments that must be maintained increases, this phase becomes increasingly more important o the efficiency of your organization. Documenting each process achieves the following goals:

  • Saves time
  • Reduces errors
  • Reduces risks
  • Ensures similarity among environments
  • Leverages experiences and configurations from testing environments when an application is migrated and deployed to production
  • Reproduces problems reliably for troubleshooting and resolution

For more information about the types of information to gather during planning, see Deployment planning.

Migrating

During the migration phase, you use information from the planning phase to prepare an application package for migration. To ensure that a consistent version of the application is packaged, stop all development activities for the application to be migrated while the assets are exported. This work stoppage is accomplished by coordination between the users in the development environment and the solution administrator who completes the export. Ideally, the documentation that you develop during the planning phase includes both information about communicating the work stoppage to the correct teams and the steps for implementing it.

Application components can be moved by using a variety of methods. These methods can be summarized as follows:

  • Replicating the asset by using programs, scripts, or manual instructions developed within your organization
  • Using available tools to complete the export and import processes
  • Using third-party products that are integrated with the system to repeat a documented process to install and configure an application component

Generally, assets that are managed by FileNet P8 are migrated by using the export and import operations of FileNet Deployment Manager. Other products include tools that are capable of exporting and importing other application assets, such as the use of the IBM® Content Navigator administration feature of the web client to move desktop configurations or team space definitions.

The migration phase includes the capture of information from the source environment to include in the application package. The source information is needed to transform environment-specific values into values that are valid for the destination. This transformation can be accomplished through operations in the migration tools that map and convert the values. For assets that cannot use the migration tools, the information might be documented manual steps for editing the asset after it is migrated into or deployed to the destination environment.

Analyzing

During the analysis phase, you analyze the impact of the deployment on the destination environment. This analysis enables identification and mediation of issues that might cause errors. In some tools, this analysis is known as a change analysis impact report. If this report is generated, it can be archived and used for review or audit activities. The archived reports can be used iteratively, to improve the migration and deployment process.

Assessing the impact on the destination environment might be of little concern when the destination is a test environment that is easily reconfigured. However, when data is imported into a destination that is an in-use, production environment, performing this analysis is crucial to the integrity of the production environment.

Some tools that are used to perform the migration and deployment tasks provide analysis capability. For example, from FileNet Deployment Manager, you can generate a change impact analysis report. See the documentation for each tool to understand the available features. For more information about the analysis capabilities of FileNet Deployment Manager, see Change impact analysis.

Backing up the system

During the backup phase, you suspend activity on the system for the destination environment and create a backup for that system. Before any system modification, it is always prudent to back up the portions of the system that are affected by the changes. For the best possible backup, activity on that system should be temporarily suspended. This best practice allows a consistent snapshot of all related data to be captured.

Before you create a backup in a production environment, validate the backup and recovery process. This validation can detect any data consistency issues and helps to ensure that the backup and recovery processes meet your business needs.

As part of the planning for the backup operation, create a plan to suspend the system with locally defined procedures. Also, create a set of rules to define which personnel can access the system after the suspension and backup. After the system is suspended and backed up, access to the system must be minimized to avoid further changes that would make the system inconsistent with the backup. In the documentation that you create during the planning phase, include information about how the system administrators and FileNet P8 administrators must access the system while it is suspended to complete the necessary application deployment and system configuration tasks.

Deploying

During the deployment phase, the sequence of individual tasks that are required to deploy an application into the destination environment can vary widely. The needs of your organization, the architecture of your system, and requirements of the application itself all determine the number and order of these tasks. The specific plan and procedures for the deployment are created as part of the migration and deployment instructions that you develop during the planning phase.

Deployment can include placing the application the on system as an active application. In some cases, the deployment phase requires both a staging step and commitment step to activate the new application version. In other cases, for example, with a FileNet Deployment Manager deployment, the import process includes both the staging step and the commitment step.

After an application is migrated and deployed, additional system configuration steps might be required. The nature of the deployment and features of the application can determine the need for this additional configuration. For example, when an application is deployed to a system for the first time, one-time-only steps might be required to configure it into the new environment. When an application is redeployed, system configuration information might be overwritten during the redeployment process, resulting in the need to prespecify this information. However, most configuration steps should not need to be repeated.

Some of the additional configuration is done directly on the server for the destination system, by using system tools. Other configuration tasks are required for objects in the Content Platform Engine that are migrated as a part of the application package. The migration and deployment documentation that you create in the planning phase would provide the information about the additional configuration that might be needed. Various configuration scenarios in this documentation would supply required information about the first-time deployment of an application or a subsequent redeployment.

Verify

During the verification phase, test the deployed application in the destination environment to verify that all of its components are working correctly. The tests that you need to complete vary according to the features and expected behaviors of the deployed application. The migration and deployment instructions that you document during the planning phase should include a plan for verifying the deployment, with specific tests to probe areas of change.

Benefits of Migration & Deployment for Business:

  • Impartial evaluation of your existing data infrastructure
  • Professionally developed timeline for full migration and deployment
  • Expert management of data migration and associated troubleshooting
  • Minimized server cutover time
  • Thorough testing of new technology for performance and stability
  • Major savings of time, money and manpower

We help customers to keep ahead of cyber vulnerabilities through the newest strategies and tools. At Hellointech.com.com we provide you the best cloud computing solution to guarantee the security you require, whether you have the ability to turn up or down.

What Is Cloud Managed Services?

Managed cloud services refers to outsourcing daily IT management for cloud-based services and technical support to automate and enhance your business operations.

Often, internal IT departments don’t possess the skills to effectively monitor and maintain a cloud environment. In these situations, a company hires a third-party cloud managed services provider to manage cloud security, computing, storage, network operations, application stacks, vendors and more.

Depending on your IT needs, cloud MSPs can also handle monitoring and reporting, performance testing, backup and recovery and more. With fixed monthly pricing, hiring a cloud managed services provider is often less expensive than an in-house team.

Why Cloud Managed Services?

Effective management continues to be the key priority for most organizations, as cloud adoption continues to rise in the US. To address this challenge, the American-based organizations choose different ways to manage their cloud infrastructure. Some manage it themselves, and some bring in a Cloud MSP to ease their immediate complexities, while some choose to have a managed cloud service provider who can handle broader mission with a clear vision on managing hybrid environments and resources.

10 Benefits of Cloud Managed Services Providers

Thinking of outsourcing IT management to a cloud managed services provider? Here are some advantages of choosing a cloud expert:

1. Cost savings

By outsourcing your cloud managed services, you control and reduce costly network maintenance costs. Staffing a full-time IT department is expensive and often unnecessary for small to medium-sized businesses with simple networks. Outsourcing to a cloud-first managed services provider like Agile IT can save you thousands each year on the cost of an in-house IT department.

2. Predictable, recurring monthly costs

With the flexibility of cloud managed services, you decide how much you’re willing to pay for IT services and have a consistent monthly bill.

For example, a tax service has a spike in customers during tax season and will need more support during the first quarter of the year and less during the second through fourth quarters. A privatized learning institute for working adults will need the most support in the evenings when students are online after work.

With a fixed monthly service plan that’s customized to fit your needs or budget, you optimize the amount you pay for IT support.

3. Future-proofed technology

Migrating to a cloud environment is the first step in future-proofing your data center. Next, you’ll need make the latest technology and services available to your business.

By hiring an in-house IT staff, your IT personnel will have to spend company time training when a new technology or required upgrade gets released. Cloud technicians are already prepared to manage the latest technology.

4. Custom and integrated service

Cloud managed service providers are flexible. Some providers offer pay-per-service or payment plans, enabling your business to focus funds on growth.

Other cloud managed service providers offer a converged solution, which produces even more cost savings. These converged solutions may include security protection, network monitoring or the setup of a new service area.

5. Robust infrastructure

Cloud MSPs like Agile IT offer a robust network infrastructure with 24/7 management. Depending on the service agreement, a cloud managed service provider can monitor and scan the network for patch requirements security, and more.

Managed service providers can also integrate existing business practices and policies to manage your network to coincide with your organizational goals.

6. Centralized network services and applications

With a managed cloud network, the provider manages all applications and servers in a central data center.

This increased network availability also raises employee production. Your remote network users can access centralized data within the same network including virtual services, and you can build storage and backup into a centralized network.

7. Coverage on all service levels

Cloud service providers offer better control over service levels, performance and maintenance. With a comprehensive service-level agreement, your business gains service continuity. The longer you work with a cloud managed services provider like Agile IT, the more familiar they become with your network, leading to faster issue response times.

8. Disaster recovery

Services are the lifeline of a cloud managed service provider. Agile IT has designed countless networks and data centers with proven redundancy and resiliency to maintain business continuity.

With cloud managed services, your data will be safe and secured across all cloud services and applications. In the event of a disaster, your business and operations can continue with minimal downtime.

9. Fast response times

Your businesses can expect quick response times through enterprise-level monitoring and remote cloud services. Agile IT can access, monitor and repair virtually any network issue remotely. If you must resolve an issue locally, a technician should be dispatched within the same business day.

10. Vendor interfacing

When vendor-specific service issues arise, cloud managed service providers take care of contacting third-party vendors to resolve them.

As a certified Microsoft consulting partner and 4-time Microsoft Cloud Partner of the Year, Agile IT understands the technical questions to ask when communicating issues with cloud vendors including Microsoft and Amazon.

At Agile IT, we are committed to helping businesses leverage custom cloud solutions to control costs and automate critical processes. As a cloud managed services provider, we set up, manage and protect your cloud environment so you can focus on growing your business.

Services

Simplify your possible with managed cloud operations

Faster innovation. Smarter, more flexible operations. New ways of connecting with customers, disrupting markets, and creating business value. A move to cloud can make all of this possible. But if it doesn’t ultimately streamline your critical IT processes and simplify management of key business applications, you may never capture cloud’s full benefits. With Deloitte’s Cloud Managed Services (CMS), you can leave the complexities of managing workloads to us.
