Data Network Services

Design and installation

PRP Telecom design and install network solutions for organisations of all sizes, covering network upgrades, server upgrades, installation of new technology and the redesign of network and server infrastructures.

Network security

Integrated network security is the key to peace of mind in today’s world of ‘maximum uptime’. Anti-virus solutions are only effective if kept up-to-date and a Firewall is only effective if programmed correctly. 90% of employees visit non-work related internet sites in office hours, and many organisations are unsure if their essential business data is backed-up correctly.

We use a combination of ‘best-of-breed’ software and hardware solutions to ensure that customers’ receive the very highest security service.

Anti-spam solutions

Fraudulent, inappropriate and offensive emails are delivered in vast quantities to businesses every day. Spam wastes network users’ time and network resources, and can also be dangerous. Trident can protect companies at the server level:

Eliminating the need to install, update and administer anti-spam software on each desktop
Significantly reduce the risk of virus infection
Safeguarding against decreased network resources
Reducing exposure to legal liability

Broadband and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)

Installing Broadband connections and maintaining VPNs is one of PRP Telecom's fastest growing areas of business.

Broadband is faster, cheaper and more immediate than conventional dial-up connection services and also enables the creation of a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

A VPN allows an organisation to connect one or more networks together, securely over the Internet. An organisation with offices in Brighton, Crawley, Edinburgh and Manchester for example, can link each site’s network together with a VPN. This provides speedy and secure access to data, as well as applications - no matter where they reside – saving time and money and providing enterprise-wide access to knowledge.

PRP Telecom's proactive approach to network support will ensure maximum ‘up time’ and available network resource whilst minimising failures. Using NetMonitor - a real time, remote network monitoring service, Trident teams will often fix a problem before clients are aware that there is one. Implementation of NetMonitor can:

Increase the reliability of your network
Improve your business productivity
Prevent network problems affecting your business and users
Provide you with knowledge about your network to enable you to plan for the future
PRP also offers NetPlan. NetPlan provides complete business reassurance, protecting against viruses, hackers, crackers and major failures and offering access to expertise and consultant skills.
