Linux Programming
Although Windows still dominate in the personal computer industry, there is no doubt that the advances offered byLinux programming are fast ensuring popularity of Linux programmingsolutions to small and medium size businesses.
Areas where Linux programming is making inroads are that of firewall security and protection against email viruses. As a leading provider of custom solutions against external and internal threats to company networks, Wireless Dimensions is on the foreground once again with advanced solutions made possible in this field.
Protection against the following threats is provided:
- Email threats such as viruses transmitted through emails and attachments to the emails. Once activated data can be erased, security of the company network compromised, and even total hard disk failure of the particular computer can also be a result of the virus attack. This virus can quickly spread to recipients in the address book of the employee, causing severe embarrassment to the company.
- Attacks directly from the web are ever present and as such specific sites need to be blocked including many of the social network sites. Banners placed on websites often contain spyware codes and once a page is downloaded to the recipient computer, keystroke logging can start. This can seriously affect the confidentiality of company data.
- The same applies for instant messaging services available on the web. As such companies need to block access to instant messaging services to protect their network.
- One last area not to be overlooked is that of devices plugged into the computers at the company. Mp3 players, memory sticks, and iPods as well PDAs can also ensure virus distribution.
