- “Cloud computing is often far more secure than traditional computing, because companies like Google and Amazon can attract and retain cyber-security personnel of a higher quality than many governmental agencies.”
- The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency. The second is that automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.
- Technology... is a queer thing. It brings you great gifts with one hand, and it stabs you in the back with the other.
- Enterprises need to rapidly redesign themselves to be more responsive to changing customer needs.

Structured Cabling
Cabling is the lifeline of your IT network, transmitting the voice, data, and video signals you depend on each day for your critical business activities. Your cabling system may be the first and the smallest part of your network investment, but as the network component with the longest life-cycle, it can deliver significant long-lasting advantages.
How fast is Your Internet Really?
With internet access popping up in almost every home and business, it is important to stay informed and up to date about different connection types and internet speeds. It depends on how your internet is cabled, but most people today receive their connection either via a telecommunications phone line or a television or fiber optic line. Depending on how it is run, projected and received, your internet will run at different speeds. Internet speed is measured both for uploading and downloading in Mbps. Mbps translates to megabits per second. You can visit to check your downloading and uploading speed which you are provided by your service provider – locally
Structured Cabling and WiFi
LANs (Local Area Networks) are built with physical connections. Cables capable of carrying images and information connect a group of computers in one office, on one floor or in one building. As technology has advanced, the functioning definition has shifted. Particularly with the onset and mainstream use of wireless technology, the way we deal with computer networks has changed, both at home and on the job. Some networks will always need to be wired physically, mainly for the degree of security this lends to delicate and important information. However, as more business is done online, and greater scope and bandwidth are required in the corporate world, more folks are turning to wireless solutions to power their work and their lives.

Structured Cabling
Structured cabling is building telecommunications cabling infrastructure that consists of a number of standardized smaller elements (hence structured) called subsystems.
Structured cabling falls into six subsystems:
- The demarcation point is the point where the service provider’s network ends and connects with the on-premises wiring at the client premises. Its normally knows as a DP box.
- Equipment or Telecommunications Rooms/Data Centers house equipment and wiring consolidation points that serve the users inside the building.
- Vertical or Riser Cabling connects between the equipment/telecommunications rooms, typically on different floors.
- Horizontal wiring can be IW (inside wiring) or Plenum Cabling and connects telecommunications rooms to individual outlets or work areas on the floor, usually through the cable trays, conduits, or ceiling spacing of each floor.
- Work-Area Components connect end-user equipment to outlets of the horizontal structured cabling system.

Today’s business enterprises face unprecedented security threats. As organizations embrace new technologies, newer threats continue to proliferate. Smart-phones, cloud computing and virtualization have each made enterprise security all the more complex and difficult and never more essential.
When you diagnose security breach incidents such as identity thefts, attacks and other security breaches, you typically find that basic security measures were carelessly handled. And the damage goes beyond the jeopardy to IT infrastructure and corporation information — with today’s social networks, bad news travels faster, to threaten your business and perhaps even scar your brand name forever.
There are many options available for wireless security cameras that can be monitored by your PC directly or remotely by any Internet accessible PC in the world. Once you have purchased the proper wireless security camera, it becomes important to know how to install it and make sure it is able to effectively do its job.
The Right equipment for the right place
In order to install your online security camera, you will need to determine where you want it to go so that you can purchase the right equipment. If you will be mounting it outside, then you will need to purchase a camera designed to be used outdoors. Choose a camera that comes with a mounting kit, and then follow the manufacturer’s instructions on installing the camera on the kit properly. If you do not have a wireless connection to your Internet at your home, then you will need to purchase a wireless router as well. Any brand will do as they are all compatible with Wi-Fi.
Positioning
Placing it in the right position makes it more efficient. When you place your camera, be aware of the range that the camera has for capturing images. The sharper your downward angle, the less area of activity the camera will be able to pick up. The range of the camera is printed clearly on the box, so it is a good idea to measure the size of the area that you want to monitor and choose an appropriate camera. It is always advisable to purchase two or more cameras to effectively monitor the area that you would like to keep secured.
Steps and procedures for installing a surveillance security system:
- Determine requirements and need
In this phase we work with the basic customer’s goals and needs. We focus on why does our customer need a security system? Most businesses and home owner would want to protect their assets and belongings. - Study location and Site Survey
Analysis the location that requires a surveillance system installed. We first determine the need, we usually ask the customer what do you want to monitor? What do you want to protect? Etc. - Study the area and environment to determine the location and type of each camera used based on zooming requirements, clarity requirements, range, budget and sensitivity (motion vs continuous).
- In step 4 we propose all types of cameras based on 1, 2 and 3 above. For example we might propose a weather proof camera that runs day and night with motion detect and zooming or tracking (camera moves continuously). (LICE24SL -Weatherproof IR camera). Another example of such choices: say we need to monitor a door, now we can put the camera inside or outside! Such a decision could be determined based on sun, shade and general environmental characteristics.
- Based on this needs and requirements we determine the location of:
a. The DVR System
b. The Monitor
c. The Cameras
d. The brackets and cables
