Elevate Your Connectivity
The Power of Secure IT Networking
Attracting Solutions understands the importance of networking. IT networks are the backbone of any organization or business IT infrastructure. Networking has revolutionized the world we live in, interconnecting devices in our home and office to resources around the world, and networking has made the internet possible. Without a network, computers and other IT devices are isolated and virtually useless. Whether running applications that share data and other resources, to printing, telecom and VoIP, remote access and remote office, or access to edge devices and visual security cameras, or simple, critical internet access or access to Artificial Intelligence (AI), the network is key.
Efficient, secure and well-planned IT networks, wired and wireless (WiFi), are key for operational continuity, communications and collaboration, and resource sharing.
While IT networks provide the vehicle for intercommunication and access to critical resources, networks can also become an attack vector for cybercriminals to access and attempt to hack and compromise a device, and for viruses, ransomware and other malware to spread across the network and infect an organization.
Properly configured, secure networks, establish a Secure Access Surface Edge (SASE) using Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and other methods, leveraging devices such as Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW) and Unified Threat Management (UTM), routers, and layer 3 switches to monitor network traffic to protect against security risks, shutting down compromised traffic, and isolating insecure devices.
SD-WAN, load balancing, failover, traffic shaping and Quality of Service (QoS), help ensure that networked resources work correctly, reliably, and that public resources and the internet are available at all times.

Comprehensive Network Security
In an era of evolving cyber threats, securing your network is not just a priority— it’s a necessity. At Attracting Solutions, we take a cutting-edge, comprehensive approach to network security. Network security not only requires robust defense of the perimeter.
Network Security also requires integrating various security defenses such as:
- Endpoint Protection (EPP)
- Email Security and filtering
- Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
- Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW)
- Unified Threat Management (UTM)
All these are necessary to create a security fabric and Secure Access Surface Edge (SASE) that encompasses and protects your entire network, locally, hybrid, in the cloud, and across disparate geographic locations and environments.
Attracting Solutions understands that to protect your digital assets from unauthorized access, data breaches, and cyberattacks, a comprehensive security approach is required throughout the network infrastructure and service edge. Because Network security is only as strong as the weakest point, and when an attack occurs, a coordinated response across your network infrastructure is required.
Software Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN)
Networking today can require connecting various resources, applications, and geographies into a unified network platform. SD-WAN addresses these needs through algorithm based artificial intelligence (AI) that centralizes management and provides zero-touch provisioning. SD-WAN leverages technologies such as dynamic path selection, application awareness, traffic optimization, and security integration, combining local and cloud hybrid WAN infrastructures, to improve network agility, performance, security, and cost-effectiveness.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) provides a single secure access platform for accessing hybrid systems across dispirit topologies and geographies. Security and networking capabilities such as Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Secure Web Gateways (SWG), Firewall as a Service (FWaaS), on premise Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW) and SD-WAN can be combined to establish a comprehensive environment that is scalable and easily managed, and provides a single, secure user experience, whether from the office, remote work, cloud, or hybrid.
Secure Remote Access: Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) has become the industry standard for secure remote access because of its improved security compared to Virtual Private Networking (VPN). ZTNA not only allows remote users access to network resources through a secure perimeter, it also enforces a zero trust model throughout the network session, constantly making access decisions based on user and device identity, enforcing least privileged access, so access to a resource or application is only granted as needed. Granular controls and packet analysis constantly monitor the network to verify that the application and traffic are authorized for the user, device, or use case. Network Segmentation and isolation is used to protect sensitive network locations and limit traffic to authorized network locations and subnets. ZTNA implementation with a Next Generation Firewalls allow inspection of traffic for viruses and other malware, Sandboxing of attachments and URL’s and integration with a Security Operations Center (SOC).
Traffic Shaping and Quality of Service
Control and prioritize network traffic to ensure that network resources are properly utilized and optimized for mission critical uses, favoring services that are vulnerable to latency and jitter, or applications that critical to business operations. Give precedence to VoIP, Video Conferencing, and streaming media, or business critical applications ERP, CRM, and financial applications, or remote access and mission critical protocols like DNS (Domain Name System) and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Load Balancing and Failover
Distribute network traffic over multiple servers, network resources or internet connections to ensure optimal resource utilization, maximized throughput, and avoic server overloads. Prevent bottlenecks, reduce response times, and enhance the overall network performance. Use redundancies and triggered transparent failover strategies to automatically redirect traffic or services to a backup or redundant system, including down internet connections, switches, firewalls, and power sources.
Switching and VLANS
Configuration of Layer 3 Switches. Segment a single physical (Layer 2) network into multiple virtual networks using Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANS). Create different VLANS for network segmentation, security, resource allocation, broadcast control, and resource allocation.
