Steve Guthrie presents at ISSA chapter meeting

As more and more businesses adopt IP phone and network systems, more and more networks need to be adequately prepared and safeguarded. Recently, Blue Ocean's Steve Guthrie presented to the central Alabama chapter of the ISSA (Information Systems Security Association) about the issues facing the industry.

One issue Steve related was the importance of connectivity on networks. Users are finding that their systems and firewalls are not SIP capable. Resolving these network issues can go a long way in smoothing the transition to a VoIP future.

The Central Alabama chapter was recently awarded "Chapter of the Year" in the category of 100 members or less at the 2011 ISSA Interntational Conference. For more information, you can visit their website at http://centralalabama.issa.org/

Testimonials

The unified communications in Outlook has increased productivity in allowing us to respond to clients more efficiently and speed up access to voicemails and faxes. The call history has enabled us to ensure that we are capturing all client call time and has also made it more efficient in returning calls. The caller ID functionality has allowed some individuals who were using assistants to screen calls to be able to do this themselves and better manage time. The presence management has helped in allowing us to locate employees and know when they will be available.
