Protect Your Network Devices

✅So Tough, Hackers Look Elsewhere.

✅ Firewalls, Switches and Wireless Access Points

Sleep Easier—Your Network Devices Aren’t Forgotten

Most businesses think once their firewall is installed, it’s “job done.” But here’s the truth: firewalls, switches, and access points don’t protect you by default—they just sit there, waiting to be configured, updated, and secured.

If a hacker finds an old vulnerability, if default settings are still active, or if no one’s watching for gaps—your entire network could be exposed without you knowing. And your broadband provider won’t fix that. That’s your responsibility.

That’s where Systems Secure steps in.

We treat your network devices like mission-critical assets—because they are. We don’t leave your infrastructure to chance. We lock it down before someone else finds the door.

The Questions Every Business Owner Should Be Asking

Cybersecurity Assessment Questions

▼

When was the last time our firewall was updated?

And no, your broadband provider doesn't do this for you.

Firewalls need regular updates to protect against new threats and vulnerabilities. Your ISP's basic router protection isn't enough for business security. Regular firmware updates, rule reviews, and configuration checks are essential for maintaining effective network protection.

▼

Are we using default settings that hackers can easily guess?

Most attacks start with what's easy—and default is very easy.

Default passwords, standard port configurations, and out-of-the-box security settings are the first things cybercriminals try. Proper security hardening means changing default credentials, closing unnecessary ports, and customizing configurations to make your systems less predictable.

▼

Has anyone ever scanned our firewall from the outside like a hacker would?

If the answer is "no," that's a red flag.

External vulnerability scanning reveals what attackers can see when they target your network. Regular penetration testing and security assessments help identify weaknesses before criminals exploit them. Without this outside-in perspective, you're flying blind.

▼

Could someone walk through our network like an open-plan office?

Weak encryption, misconfigured access points, and open ports make it easier than you think.

Network segmentation, strong encryption, and proper access controls prevent lateral movement once attackers breach your perimeter. Without these barriers, one compromised device can lead to complete network infiltration and data theft.

▼

If something went wrong, could we prove we took reasonable steps to secure our infrastructure?

That's not just a security question—it's a legal one.

GDPR, Cyber Essentials, and industry regulations require documented security measures. In the event of a breach, you need evidence of due diligence: security policies, audit logs, training records, and incident response procedures. Poor documentation can mean legal liability and massive fines.

▼

When did we last backup our firewall, and why does it matter?

Firewall configurations can take hours to rebuild from scratch.

Your firewall configuration contains years of fine-tuned rules, security policies, and network settings. Without recent backups, a hardware failure or configuration error could leave you rebuilding everything from memory—exposing your network for hours or days while you recreate complex security rules and access controls.

The Framework We Follow to Deliver the Service

Who We Help - Network Security

Who Is This For

▼

You've installed a firewall, but don't know if it's configured correctly

Default settings are not security settings.

Most firewalls come with basic configurations that prioritize ease of setup over security. Without proper hardening, rule optimization, and regular audits, your firewall might be providing a false sense of security while leaving critical vulnerabilities exposed.

▼

You're not sure when your network devices were last updated

Outdated firmware is a welcome mat for hackers.

Network devices with outdated firmware contain known vulnerabilities that cybercriminals actively exploit. Regular updates patch these security holes, but without a managed approach, your infrastructure becomes an easy target for attackers looking for the path of least resistance.

▼

You've never had an external scan done on your firewall

If attackers are testing your defences, shouldn't you be?

External vulnerability scans reveal what attackers see when they target your network. Without this outside perspective, you're defending blind against threats that may already have identified weaknesses in your perimeter security that you don't even know exist.

▼

You rely on cloud apps, remote access, or multiple locations

Every extra connection point increases risk.

Modern business operations create complex network architectures with multiple entry points, cloud integrations, and remote access requirements. Each connection expands your attack surface, requiring sophisticated security measures to protect against threats from every direction.

▼

You want peace of mind that your infrastructure is being managed properly

No more crossing your fingers and hoping for the best.

Running a business shouldn't require constant worry about network security. You need professional assurance that your infrastructure is monitored, maintained, and protected by experts who understand the evolving threat landscape and can respond immediately when issues arise.

▼

You can't afford downtime if a device fails or gets misconfigured

One broken firewall can bring your whole business to a halt—we make sure it doesn't.

Critical network infrastructure failures can shut down your entire operation within minutes. When firewalls crash, switches fail, or configurations get corrupted, every second of downtime costs money and damages customer trust. Professional backup and recovery systems ensure rapid restoration and business continuity.

Scshdule Call

Don’t we already have a firewall? Isn’t that enough?

es, having a firewall is a good start. But unless it’s regularly updated, correctly configured, and monitored, it’s not doing its job. A default firewall is like a lock with the key still in it.

Isn’t this something our IT provider should already be doing?

Maybe—but most general IT providers focus on keeping things running, not keeping them secure. We specialise in cybersecurity. We dig deeper, scan like hackers, and harden your devices with one goal: make your business harder to breach.

We’ve never had a problem before. Why change now?

That’s exactly what attackers count on. Most breaches happen because a business assumed they were fine—until they weren’t. Our job is to keep it that way by making sure the vulnerabilities don’t exist in the first place.

What happens if our firewall crashes or gets wiped?

We’ve got your back. We create secure configuration backups for every critical network device. If something fails, we restore it fast—without starting from scratch or leaving you offline.

Can’t we just rely on antivirus and email filters?

Those tools protect your endpoints. This protects your network infrastructure—the roads everything else runs on. A blind spot in your firewall or router can undo everything else you’ve built.

How often do you check our devices?

We perform proactive reviews monthly, apply updates as needed, and continuously monitor for changes, threats, or anomalies. And if something looks off, we act—fast.

Is the price in the calculator the price we’ll pay?

The calculator gives you a real-world estimate based on what most of our clients pay. After your scheduled call with us, we’ll fine-tune the price to match your exact needs—every business is a little different, so the final number might be slightly higher or lower. But don’t worry: if we can’t match the estimate exactly, we’ll get as close as possible, and you’ll always get a clear, upfront price before anything starts. No surprises, no hidden fees.

Why do you charge per site?

Because every site increases your risk—and the work required to secure it properly.

Each location has its own firewall, network devices, internet connection, and sometimes even different staff behaviours or risks. It’s not just a copy-paste setup.

We don’t just secure one server—we secure the physical and digital perimeter of each site. That means extra device audits, more scanning, more policy enforcement, and more time keeping it all aligned.

We price per site so we can give each location the tailored protection it deserves—without cutting corners.
