Netwirx Managed Services
Secure Networks. Expansive Connectivity
Why we prioritize security
Your intellectual property and hardware are high-value assets that require proactive defense. Cyber security is not just a buzz phrase, it is a business requirement and more personally, a social investment. Protecting your internal "grid" from active threats while securing outbound connections to your externally located servers, cloud gateways and edge devices provides a resilient foundation that is ready for the unexpected by reducing the attack surface and authorizing how your end-users access the internet, rather than just reacting to it
Why we prioritize networking
We recognize the boundaries of each service layer and work within our expertise to optimize how they interface with your workspace and domain-specific integrations. We service the architecture of the network system, and will proactively coordinate with your ISPs, VoIP providers, and 3rd-party vendors to ensure seamless end-to-end connectivity
How will you be prioritized
With our strategic partnership led by Sophos and Duxbury Networking, we bring enterprise-grade security architecture to the SME and startup market and welcome all interested buyers who need to securitise their digital presence. Netwirx Managed Services upgrades your network from "passive" to "resilient." We don't wait for a bandwidth choke or an unauthorized access event to happen. We provide continuous oversight of your network health via the Sophos ecosystem, with a dedicated team of experts leading your security posture, keeping you informed and your resource integrity secured
