As part of every proposal we will deliver a careful analysis of the likely payback period and anticipated return on investment for any project we undertake.
- Network Security Assessment
Data and network security is an ever-changing landscape. Every day new exploits are designed creating new threats, so proper diligence and vigilance requires innovation and constant adaptation. Our security experts understand this and are constantly developing new ways to secure client computing environments against these new threats. Our network security assessments are a “point-in-time” examination of your current strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats designed to give us a baseline understanding from which we can develop a constantly adapting methodology to truly protect your data assets whether in storage or in transit.
- Compliance Planning
With today’s regulatory requirements it is not enough to simply install and deploy protective security measures, one must constantly demonstrate that they are working effectively. BCS Legal Solutions provides this regular reporting capability to assure that your enterprise always remains in compliance.
- Contingency Planning
With well more than half of all companies that suffer catastrophic data loss never recovering and returning to business, planning for all possible contingencies becomes mandatory to corporate survival. Our experts help you design in the redundant systems and backup measures needed to protect your operation.
- Continuance of Business
By carefully designing redundant server & storage facilities, and providing flexible secure alternative access facilities we’re able to keep your business running in the aftermath of unanticipated occurrences.
- Disaster Mitigation & Recovery
By continuously replicating critical business data at a separate facility we can assure your enterprise of full data availability should your primary site become unavailable. Your business data is the most valuable asset you own. We make sure it’s properly and thoroughly protected.
- Data Integrity
On-line and near-line data backup facilities maintain consistency and integrity of your critical business data.
- Vendor Selection
Selecting the vendors whose products will be integrated into your information management infrastructure is more than simply a comparison of features and benefits. It is a thorough examination of the support, responsiveness and performance not only of the products but also of the vendors themselves.
- Prototyping & Benchmarking
Perhaps the most common error our clients have made prior to engaging BCS Legal Solutions to help them is the rush to production. Without prototyping and piloting solutions in a reduced and controlled environment it is impossible to determine if a specific solution will work in a particular environment and it is just as difficult to gauge the performance that can be anticipated. A key component to our methodology is the prototyping, piloting, and benchmarking of all proposed enhancements prior to full production implementation.
- Proof of Concept
Our proven methodology requires that we demonstrate the efficiency and performance of each proposed solution. By providing this proof of concept we assure production satisfaction in advance of full implementation.
