The Problem
Few companies can afford the depth of resources required to meet all the demands placed on today's IT infrastructures. At the same time, only peak performance can assure maximum return on a company's IT dollars. For IT managers, this dilemma grows daily. How do you build in staff redundancy, maintain a fully updated core of expertise, and secure your network, your business processes and your data? How do you do all this in a high-demand environment 24/7 and control costs?
The ServiceAssist Solution
Corporate growth pains, rapid deployment of services and advancing technologies are just some of the events that can weaken an infrastructure and add to the cost of operation. Other concerns include security breaks that go unnoticed, mobile employees and branch offices that may lose touch, and data stored in legacy systems that becomes stuck in time.
At MFX we have the expertise and experience to help you meet these challenges with strength and vision in the IT outsourcing arena. We can support you in designing, developing and implementing managed infrastructure solutions that are widely scalable, easily overseen, secure and stable regardless of how far reaching. In fact, we've proven ourselves in some of the world's most highly regulated industries where we've met and exceeded industry and government standards for securing financial transactions and information.

Security defense and redundancy services
Using the tools and tricks of both the "white hat" and "black hat" community, we're able to thoroughly analyze your defense and isolate problems to provide you with a managed IT solution. We will design, install and maintain a secure network using industry standard firewalls (Velociraptor, PIX, and Firewall-1) and monitor your external segment for nefarious activities, while establishing secure, remote access points using state-of-the-art VPN solutions. In the case of application administration, we can monitor and administer both the user access and the data for even the most proprietary solutions.
Should you need a backup/restore procedure, we can also implement one following industry best practices. If disaster recovery is your concern, MFX will work with your team to define what downtime you can afford, and will put in place the processes required. As you can readily see, our wide range of experience and expertise makes us an ideal partner for those companies that need to move at the speed of opportunity.
Security you can count on
In the unlikely event that the MFX processing facility is impaired, our disaster recovery plan targets having all clients back in process within 48-hours. Daily backup and recovery is provided, along with a weekly full-system backup with all tapes sent offsite to MFX's storage facility.
