Enterasys recognizes that the business of government is changing. Forces driving the change include globalization, homeland security, the need for collaborative decisionmaking and the increasingly important role of “nontraditional employees” such as consultants and contractors. Today’s workers are geographically dispersed, yet demand seamless 24-7 access to up-to-date intelligence. The network infrastructure is the backbone that ties all of this together, connecting users to the required IT resources and enabling instant sharing of information.

Infrastructure connectivity and capacity challenges of the past have been addressed for the most part. Security is now the crucial concern, with a growing range of IT security challenges coming to the forefront:

  • Applications and operating systems are under attack
  • Theft of critical information is on the rise
  • Government regulations and compliance grow in complexity
  • And new technologies are blurring the distinction between protected and unprotected perimeters.

The stakes have also become much higher as organizations are now dependent on their high-performance information infrastructure. Disruption to that infrastructure significantly impairs revenue and ongoing operations.

Secure and reliable data networking is the lifeblood of government business. It is the insurance system providing granular control of new applications, detection of the never-ending onslaught of viruses, worms, Trojan Horses and unauthorized intrusions and adherence to government compliance.

For more than a decade Enterasys Networks has met federal and provincial agency needs ranging from transportation to defense, providing reliable and secure networking solutions to the Canadian Federal Government and crown corporations. Enterasys also serves Canadian public sector customers overseeing centralized national health care and education needs and the needs of municipal and provincial governments.

All Enterasys products are available from our two authorized Canadian distributors, Techdata Canada, Ingram Canada and Westcon Canada.
