Advanced Security, Experienced Service

Network hardware, identity engines, wireless networking products, and any network hardware/software products related to network security require extensive knowledge and expert service for proper deployment. Next generation and advanced network security products are essential technology for many government and education agencies, but without proper security services they may go under-utilized or perform sub-optimally. These products require expert related services to ensure the agency attains the desired business outcome and value for their investment.

Mosaic451 recognizes that while adoption of advanced and emerging technology is an important part of sound security strategy, no amount of technology can secure an environment without a strong foundation of smart, experienced, operationally minded humans to design, operate, and optimize the technology. Mosaic451's Hybrid™ solution combines 24/7 off-site monitoring with dedicated on-site personnel that act as a full security operations team to provide the most comprehensive level of information security.
