Implementation is one part of the process but having a resource that is keenly aware of technical trends and new products from leading suppliers is a differentiator. Computer World works with your organization to develop a scalable solution for today and tomorrow.
Wireless
Wireless LANs are increasingly being used to provide flexible network connectivity. These are typically deployed internally, within an office or campus, but they can also provide short-range connectivity to mobile-users.
Computer World provides organizations with high-performance broadband wireless solutions specifically designed for building-to-building LAN connectivity and wireless Internet distribution. Our wireless capabilities include a, b and g radios as well as Bluetooth technologies.
Our consultants perform a comprehensive site-survey of your environment and design a plan to ensure continued wireless support throughout your environment.
WLAN benefits include: |
|
Increased mobility |
|
Effective bandwidth distribution |
|
Network access |
|
Connections of previously separate networks without the cost of cabling |
|
Create temporary workstations |
|
| |
Remote Connectivity
The demand for remote connectivity has never been higher. Mobile workers have become the norm in business today. Access to company resources needs to be reliable, secure and seamless.
Computer World remote connectivity solutions enable mobile employees to be more productive, any time, any place. |

Firewall and Virtual Private Network (VPN)
All organization needs a firewall these days, large or small. Depending on the size of your organization and how much you are willing to spend on securing your information, there are different types of firewalls that come packaged with various features and functions.
Firewalls act as a perimeter access-control device. Firewalls are classified into four different levels: packet-level firewalls that don’t keep a history of who’s talking to whom; stateful inspection firewalls that keep low-protocol records (at the IP level); proxy firewalls that do take history into account; and application firewalls that work at the application-level using an in-depth knowledge of the Web services, service requesters, and message content.
In a distributed business model, branch offices and POS locations extend a company’s reach into key markets, but that communication link must be available 24x7 and be able to support the business’ applications. Integrated VPN and Firewall solutions help companies establish centralized control over remote access points and provide the robust security and performance needed for business continuance.
Computer World designs Firewall and VPN’s for companies who are looking to use public IP networks to enable mobile workers to tap into corporate data networks.
By collaborating with industry leading vendors like Cisco, Juniper Networks, 3COM and Microsoft, Computer World can design and implement a VPN for your organizations unique requirements. |
|
Secure Sockets Layer Protocol (SSL)
SSL protocols are encrypted links or private keys between two sites over the internet. The protocol allows client/server applications to communicate without the possibility of eavesdropping or tampering.
Computer World offers SSK via firewall, VPN and other security solutions in partnership with Juniper Networks and Cisco Systems. |
|
Virtual LANs
Computer World can design a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) within your organization in order to reduce broadcast traffic and allow more control in implementing security policies. |

WAN Application Traffic Management Solutions - PacketShaper
The rapid proliferation of Internet computing has given rise to the "distributed enterprise" - with offices and users often separated by hundreds or thousands of miles. This, in turn, has created new demands and challenges for the wide-area network (WAN) as a strategically important resource to connect all users across the distributed enterprise, and provide them with fast, reliable access to the applications and information they need to conduct business. As the corporate WAN continues to evolve, it will support not only critical data applications, but also voice and video traffic. Comprehensive application traffic management solutions will be increasingly deployed in conjunction with MPLS-based WANs to support converged voice/video/data traffic, improve WAN QoS, and ensure optimal return on WAN service investments.
Computer World provides WAN application performance solutions from Packeteer. The Packeteer solutions combine a family of scalable appliances with patented software capabilities to deliver unmatched visibility, control, acceleration, and management of application traffic across WAN and Internet links. These solutions help align network and application resources with the priorities of the business, optimizing performance and reducing operational costs in the process.
Packeteer monitoring solutions begin by automatically classifying more than 450 specific types of application traffic that consume costly WAN bandwidth. Packeteer can also reveal how these apps perform, who is using them, and which ones are causing performance problems. From there, IT managers can use Packeteer to assign customized QoS and bandwidth policies for business-critical applications to ensure optimal control and performance, while limiting or blocking bandwidth used by recreational or potentially malicious applications.
Performance can be further accelerated through Packeteer's intelligent compression technology that yields up to 10X compression gains on certain traffic types, thus relieving congestion and creating more available bandwidth for other applications. Finally, Packeteer offers system-wide reporting and policy management applications to simplify administration of large-scale deployments. No other solution on the market offers this comprehensive set of integrated capabilities that help make Packeteer the global market leader in Application Traffic Management. |
