The Top Ten

It’s all about network security at Clear Concepts. Our proactive approach and well defined security policies insures the integrity of all data on client networks we manage, limiting risk and providing piece of mind.  Security and permissions are often ignored by IT deployment organizations, however with a 24/7 connection to the internet and the confidential nature of your business, it’s a critical requirement.

#1 The Administrator Account & Brut Force Attacks

Brut force attacks on networks are common place. Hackers focus their attention on cracking the “Administrator” account by using scripts that run various password combinations of words and letters until a successful match is made.

At Clear Concepts, its our policy to disable the default “Administrator” account on workstations and servers and replace it with an “Unknown User” account with full administrative privileges to thwart any attempts by outside or inside sources to gain unauthorized access.

#2 Local Administrative Rights [ Next ]
