We offer a range of IT security solutions and services for businesses
We analyse and propose solutions tailored to ensure optimal performance, as well as to meet the specific requirements of each business and every particular situation in the field of IT security.
Our services guarantee the security of your information.
We have a team with the business experience and expertise required to design solutions tailored exclusively to your organisation, thereby ensuring an efficient outcome for every new project we undertake.
Cyber vulnerabilities significantly increase the security risks facing your business. Destructive attacks or data loss on multiple fronts are difficult to prevent without a proactive strategy.
These services are useful to businesses of all sizes, regardless of their sector, thereby ensuring the protection of their information and the smooth operation of their IT systems. Network security begins with ensuring that workstations and servers are properly protected and with the installation of firewalls to control all internal and external (internet) data.
A cyberattack strikes without warning — and the cost is rarely just technical: it means hours of downtime, customer data at risk and your reputation on the line. DataRoad protects your business from start to finish: we design the security solution, install certified firewalls, secure your email and remote access, and keep a watchful eye — every day, so it doesn’t have to be your problem.
Results that a decision-maker can understand: lower risk, zero avoidable downtime and a predictable monthly cost.
Managed firewall, VPN and remote access
A misconfigured firewall gives you the exact same feeling of security as a properly configured one — until the day it doesn't. The difference isn't in the hardware: it's in the person who reviews the rules, updates the signatures and looks at the alerts.
It is not the operator's router
It is a dedicated system that inspects incoming and outgoing traffic, and logs everything.
Revised rules
Rules age. Without revision, doors are left open that nobody remembers opening.
Remote access with control
VPN with MFA and per-person permissions, not a shared password.
Handled alerts
An alert that nobody reads is the same as not existing.
What does the firewall do
Traffic inspection
Analysis of the actual content of what is circulating, not just the origin and destination.
Segmentation
Anyone who enters one part of the network does not automatically reach the rest — visits, operation and servers are separate.
Content filtering
Blocking of malicious destinations and categories defined with the company.
Registration and auditing
Login attempt history — the basis of any investigation following an incident.
site-to-site VPN
Offices linked together as if they were the same local area network.
Internet redundancy
Second call that automatically answers when the main one drops.
Remote access: who accesses, what and when
Working outside the office is no longer the exception, and the way this access takes place is nowadays the most exploited point in an attack. We configure user-by-user VPNs, with multi-factor authentication, permissions limited to what each person needs, and session logging. When someone leaves the company, access ends on the very same day — and that is verifiable.
Monitoring and alarm systems
The firewall generates alerts all the time. What distinguishes a protected network from a network with protective equipment is having someone separate the noise from what matters, and take action. In IT Unlimited contracts, the alerts enter our 24/7 monitoring and are treated as incidents, with the same SLA as the rest.
Frequently Asked Questions
Isn’t the operator’s router enough?
It just forwards and little more besides. It doesn't inspect traffic content, it doesn't segment the network, and it doesn't keep a log that's of any use after an incident.
Which brands do you work with?
We are certified Fortinet and Sophos partners, and we also work with whatever hardware the company already has, provided it allows for management and updates.
Is the firewall included in the monthly fee?
The managed firewall is included in Premium plans. On the Essential plan, it is contracted separately.
Who deals with the alerts?
We. They enter monitoring and are treated as incidents, with a response time defined in the contract.
Is this related to NIS2?
Network segmentation, access logging and control over who accesses remotely are direct requirements — see the page on NIS2.
