Servers

Server maintenance
This involves “de-fragmenting” the server’s storage and cleaning all the log files, removing any loads that are “over working” the server. In short, this will result in the server running more smoothly and also more reliably.

Backup of Server held data
This refers to the identity of the “user files” such as word docs, excel, etc… and also any server “core” files that will be needed in the event of a server restore.

Increased Server Security
1. Installing client logging (Informs you who is using the server and when)

2. Eliminating security loopholes (Closing any security holes to stop unauthorised access to the server by internal and external means)

3. Installing management systems (This automates many basic maintenance tasks)

4. File system report (Access Control List – a list of users who are authorised and allowed access to certain non critical files on your system)


Identifying network configuration errors
Any errors or misconfigurations discovered will be resolved where possible.
