Through a comprehensive and systematic analysis, we can identify deficiencies and long standing problems that have gone unnoticed and overtime deteriorated the system stability and performance.

Assessments provide a vital overview of your systems and IT operations looking at the technology from the ground up. They help identify any early signs problems and long standing issues which may be impeding your systems and operations.

Through a comprehensive analysis of your IT operations and not just the technology, we identify any holes in existing operations and procedures which can further lead to unnecessary risks and exposures. You take your car in for a regular check-up, can you really afford to skip on something as important as your technology?

The assessment process compares the existing environment and operational plans against Microsoft’s and other vendor best practices. In addition, the assessment includes recommendations that provide a clear roadmap to remediate any deficiencies and risks identified within the system. Let us help you put your mind at ease while also identifying any potential threats developing within the system before they have a chance to develop into actual problems.

Backend infrastructure which provides the foundation on which the platform (operating system) and SQL is built on.

Windows platform:

SQL Server:

SQL specific performance counters.
Backup procedures and policies.
Maintenance Solution.
Index fragmentation and effectiveness.
Configuration and how it stands relevant to best practices.
Security and Auditing.
SQL specific metrics used to identify and isolate any potential problems.
High-Availability, replication and database mirroring.

SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

SQL Injection is one of the most common web attack mechanisms used by hackers to steal data from organizations. Even the least likely candidates like VISA, Yahoo and world banks have been hacked using this attack method. It essentially allows an attacker to inject SQL commands by inserting rouge commands into a filed like a login or contact form on your site in order to allow them to gain access to the data held within the database. Using these rouge commands attacker can cause the SQL backend to return data such as client information and other confidential data. In some cases attacker can gain unrestricted access to the entire system.

Let us help ensure your organization is protected against vulnerabilities that could cause exposure and damage your firms reputation, possibly leading to legal action.

Stress
Testing

One of the leading causes in performance degradation can be attributed to storage problems. Over the past years, processors and memory has made giant leaps forward while the storage remained relatively same. Drives are still 15K with same performance attributes, they only got bigger. Recently Solid State Disks started to change this however, unfortunately they are far too expensive for most organizations.

One of the most common mistakes we see is organizations buying storage based on size. Marketing campaigns target the weakness points for most organizations providing most space for the lowest cost. The real question is, “what good is all that space if you can’t use it?”.

By overloading your SAN, the systems become unstable resulting in system wide delays and degraded operations. SiRON’s Storage Health Check pinpoints and identifies any bottlenecks that may exist within the existing storage system. Whether you are buying a new storage unit and need expert advice or looking to resolve the problems with your existing storage unit, SiRON can help you achieve your goals.

Storage Services

SiRON provides number of invaluable services to help guide you through your storage challenges. From basic advice to operational health checks, we can help you overcome any storage related challenge.
