For small and midsize business owners, every minute of uptime counts. A slow or vulnerable network isn’t just frustrating—it costs productivity, damages customer trust, and drains revenue. Network Infrastructure Management, guided by CIS (Center for Internet Security) standards, is the key to keeping your technology reliable, secure, and scalable.
Practical Action Steps
- Audit Your Current Network: Compare your systems to CIS-recommended controls to uncover risks.
- Secure Data Flows: Implement firewalls, intrusion detection, and CIS baseline configurations.
- Plan for Growth: Ensure your infrastructure supports cloud, remote work, and future expansion.
- Continuous Monitoring: Use real-time alerts to prevent disruption before it happens.
- Employee Awareness: Provide staff training on cybersecurity aligned with CIS best practices.
Client Q&A
- “Do CIS standards apply to smaller companies?” – Absolutely; they’re designed to scale to all business sizes.
- “Will I need to overhaul my whole network?” – Not necessarily. Often, a phased approach is more cost-effective.
- “What if I already have an IT person?” – Farmhouse Networking’s role is to extend their expertise, not replace it.
