Because it already knew the work. The repeat choice confirms the company's trust on three fronts: corporate networking, IT security and high-performance infrastructure. ## Who is Boost Portugal? The national benchmark in tourism activities, urban mobility and technology-driven experiences. It operates in Lisbon, Porto and Madrid and, through the GoCar Network, in Barcelona, San Francisco, Miami and San Diego. Tours run on two-, three- or four-wheeled vehicles. Its portfolio includes brands such as GoCar Tours, Lisbon by Segway, Eco Tuk Tours, Porto Rent-a-Bike, Lisbon by Beetle, Red Tours GPS, Bikes & Company, Blue Dragon City Tours, Scooter Solution and Lisbon Escape Hunt. ## What was replaced, from the outlet to the firewall? - **Cabling** The network was rebuilt in full and every point was certified. - **Core** 48-port Layer 3 PoE switches, ready for heavy traffic. Routing between segments happens on the switch, and the access points draw power through their own cable. - **Wireless** Wi-Fi 6 access points managed and monitored from a single console. - **Perimeter** A corporate firewall configured from scratch. - **Oversight** Proactive monitoring with alerting to anticipate failures. ## What does the company gain from the new network? - **Speed** More throughput for office and operations. - **Stability** Enterprise-grade equipment, with problems flagged by alerts before they become outages. - **Scale** A foundation ready for the technological evolution of the years ahead. - **Security** Traffic filtered and controlled at the perimeter. ## Who looks after the network after the rebuild?
