Other ServicesVirtual Office Hosted Solution Services (VOHSS) <AKA Cloud Computing or SAAS>
Atlanta Technology Force, Inc. (ATF)is proud to announce our Unified Systems Management service, “Virtual Office
Hosted Services Solution (VOHSS)”.
Productivity is no longer measured by the time spent in the confines of a
brick and mortar office. Your
small business can take advantage of technology advancements which allow you
to work virtually from anywhere at any time while your competition is stuck
in traffic in route to the office.
With VOHSS, you can gain access to your programs, applications, and
company data from any computer with web accessibility.
Additionally, you can be confident that your information is secure,
backed up daily, and easy to access for those with the proper
credentials. ATF has developed ways to help small businesses compete at the enterprise level. Until recently, a business had to invest a major portion of capital in equipment and licensing such as: servers, workstations, laptops, firewalls, routers, backups, Microsoft Office licensing, and phone systems. After much research, development, and continuous collaboration with partners such as Microsoft, Dell, Cisco, SwitchVox & Cbeyond, ATF has developed an affordable total virtual office solution which allows small businesses to work more efficiently. With the use of enterprise solutions, businesses no longer have to pay the upfront costs normally associated with purchasing and maintaining the enterprise equipment and licensing. Now you no longer need to have a central brick and mortar office to house your servers, workstations, firewalls, and telephone systems! Do more with less avoid upfront capital expenditures, enjoy costs that fluctuate according to use, and take a step into the 'Cloud' with the implementation of VOHSS.

Server Migrations (Physical to Physical or Physical to Virtual servers)
ATF has the technology to make replacing your old server quick and easy with minimal down time without having to redeploy all your domain members. We can easily replicate all the policies, securities and group memberships in Active Directory from your old server to your new server. Whether it is a physical server replacement or a virtual server replacement we can ensure it is quick and easy and most of all painless!
Here are a few reasons why you should migrate your old server from physical to a virtual server environment:
1. Reduced Infrastructure Cost & Increase Efficiency: Simply consolidate multiple servers onto one or more hardware platforms which are used in the virtual environment. For every physical virtual server box you can run 20+/- servers (based on resources allocated) that would otherwise be separate servers in the rack. By doing this you:
2. Reduced Administration Burden: The burden of administrating your servers will be reduced significantly. You can reduce the administrator to server ratio from 1:10 to 1:30. This means that you can either save time in your daily server admin tasks or be able to administer more servers. 3. Faster Server Deployments: Because every virtual server is simply a file on the disk, you can quickly clone an existing system or create a new system from a sysprepped image. You can deploy a new server in a virtual environment within minutes rather than the standard 60-90 days from planning, approval, shipping and implementation as it relates to a physical server. 4. Power/Cooling Cost Savings: By consolidating multiple servers into a virtual environment you consume less energy and require less cooling in the room which the servers are housed. Just think about the average Dell 2800 Power Edge utilizes two 700 watt power supplies per server whereas one virtual server that hosts 20 server has the same two 700 watt power supplies and thus consumes less energy. Also when you consolidate 20 servers into one or two (for high availability) physical servers the room temperature is easier to regulate in comparison to 20 servers in the same room. 5. No More Interruptions for Maintenance or Hardware Replacement: Lets say you need to add RAM or replace a processor. Typically, if it was a production server you would have to schedule the down time during off peak hours to address the issue and pray it came back up! In a high availability virtual environment you can migrate one or several servers to another virtual box within minutes. There is no interruption to the end user and you can add/replace hardware as needed on the virtual server which was decommissioned for the maintenance. Once put back into place you simply migrate the virtual servers back to where they were....again with no interruption to the end user. 5. Testing: Would it be great if you could have a server or servers dedicated for testing new applications or patches before introducing them into a production environment? Well now you can! In a Virtualized server environment it is as simple as implementing an image of a existing server. Within minutes, you can have your test server up and running without you requiring additional licensing or hardware. Test to your hearts content!
In conclusion, virtualizing your servers pays for itself when you factor in the reduced costs as it relates to infrastructure, power, cooling, and reduced administration time. In addition, your company will be able to avoid down time related to basic hardware maintenance as well as the benefit of shorter planning and implementation times for new servers, applications or updates.
So the questions remains......WHY HAVEN'T YOU VIRTUALIZED YOUR BUSINESS? There is no better ROI in technology today!

CanIt® Spam/Virus Trapping
· Perimeter
Protection:
CanIt®™ intercepts messages before they reach the clients infrastructure
to prevent high impact attacks such as Denial of Service (DOS) and Directory
Harvesting programs from stealing email processing resources.
· Redundant
Server Set :
CanIt®™ uses an array of redundant servers to ensure that at least one
server will always be available to deliver mail. Each server set is equipped
with ATF's proprietary Spam detection system that utilizes more than 60
types of filtering techniques. All servers also contain multiple anti-virus
engines and proprietary detection systems that rid incoming email of worms,
viruses, phishing attempts and other protocol-based vulnerabilities.
· Virus
Scanning :
In today's world, viruses are the favorite tool used by spammers to enable
the mass delivery of spam. ATF uses three anti-virus engines which are
updated every 10 minutes to ensure the signature databases are current.
ATF's own wave-front detection system is used to identify and block
unknown viruses providing an extra layer of virus protection. Emails that
fail any of the anti-virus tests are routed to the Virus Quarantine for
review by the system administrators.
· SpamTrap™
:
The ATF Spam Filtering system uses the results from a blend of leading
spam identification techniques to determine whether a message is legit or
belongs in the Spam Quarantine. Some of these tests include internal and
external RBL checks, routing analysis, signature and heuristic content
inspection and reputation review. Drawing on our worldwide spam traps the
system is updated between 500 and 2500 times per day providing consistent
spam capture rates of up to 99%.
· User
Quarantine:
Messages that are identified as spam or containing a virus are parked in
ATF's offsite Spam or Virus Quarantine. The detained emails can be
viewed and/or released by administrators or individuals users depending on
the configuration selected by the administrator. User-level logins as well
as email reports eliminate anxiety over potential false positives and
optionally allow tracked message releases.

email server for their “dirty work” of relaying spam and viruses, and
enables clients to utilize email as the communication tool for which it was
created.
Corporate Employee Tracking Software
Spector 360
is SpectorSoft’s flagship solution for monitoring your employees
company-wide. Spector 360
records your employees’ web sites visited, emails sent and received, chats
and instant messages, keystrokes typed, files transferred, documents printed
and applications run. In addition, through a first of its kind
surveillance-like camera recording tool, Spector 360 shows you in exact
visual detail what an employee does every step of the way. Spector 360
takes the recorded Internet and computer activities from each of your
employees, feeds that information into a database and provides you with more
than 50 built-in reports and unlimited customization to answer questions
like:
Beyond
reporting, Spector 360 retains the user-level investigative tools our
customers have grown to rely on. If you detect a problem or suspect a
specific employee is the main culprit of abuse, you can dig deeper and
review every detail of the computer and Internet activity to gather the
evidence you need. The level of detail is so precise that you can see what
an employee does each and every second. With
high-level reports and charts that help you quickly identify those employees
who are most likely engaging in activities that are harmful to your company,
you’ll be able to focus any detailed investigations on those specific
individuals, and be assured that Spector 360 will provide you with all the
details you need to conduct the most thorough analysis possible. In
addition, Spector 360 allows you to proactively control how your employees
use the web by integrating Internet Filtering with world-class monitoring.
Block access to specific web sites or to categories deemed inappropriate
for your workplace. Restrict access by individual, group, department or the
entire company. With more than thirty pre-defined web filtering categories,
Spector 360 gives you the power to eliminate excessive and explicit Internet
surfing while keeping your employees focused and on task. Our
customers use SpectorSoft products primarily to uncover Internet abuse, lost
productivity, leaking of confidential information and other inappropriate
activities by their employees that expose them to financial, legal and other
preventable risks. As a simple example, finding just one employee who spends
an hour a day surfing non-work-related web sites and reducing that to just a
few minutes a day can save a company more than 200 hours a year in lost
productivity. Multiply that by 10 employees and you gain back 2000 hours in
one year.
