Flexible Working

Flexible Working

The way in which business is conducted has been changing in recent years. Today's working ethos is moving away from staff being permanently based at office locations, to mobile work forces that conduct business on the move. This allows for more flexible business, placing staff where they can deliver the best results and greatest efficiencies. At Astute Technologies we understand that to enable this change, technology platforms need to be just as flexible, allowing access to key information and systems from remote locations in a secure manner. We can help advise, design and implement secure remote working solutions that will enable your work force to access what they require, when they require it and from wherever they need to access it from.

Secure Remote Access

It is vital that in any remote working solution that the security of the system is maintained. This can be difficult as many of the users of the technology platform will be remote and will be accessing the system over unprotected networks such as the Internet. We understand the importance of information security, and the important role that security plays in enabling remote working solutions. We can help advise on the best ways to protect sensitive data when it resides on remote devices, and also how to protect this data in transit as it passes across unprotected networks that are outside of your control.

Business Applications

A key element of providing a remote working solution is to enable access to key business applications to remote users, in the same manner as they would access these systems if they were in the office. At Astute Technologies we understand the importance of having access to these key systems, and can help to advise on the optimum way to deliver these to remote working devices, such as laptops and handhelds.

E-Mail

In recent years e-mail has become the backbone of all business communication, providing a reliable, cost effective mechanism for businesses to transfer information and communicate between staff. Because of this it is vital that any remote working solution provides effective access to this communication medium, to enable remote working staff to remain part of this important network. We can help you decide on the best way to deliver this functionality, with years of experience in e-mail technology and remote working solutions.

Data

In addition to business applications and e-mail, remote workers need access to raw data that may exist on your technology platforms. This can include spreadsheets, documents, databases, images and video media. Access to this data can be network intensive, requiring large amounts of network bandwidth, and can be cost prohibitive to provide to remote workers. Solutions to this can be sought to alter the way in which data is presented to remote workers and as such limit the amount of information that is transmitted across network links.
