We do not just provide service,
we also enable our clients better understand their network by
providing them with necessary tools to monitor their traffic.
One such tool is the Protocol Discovery which enables one to view
network traffic as it passes through the modem.
In this way we are able to advice a client should their network
be experiencing attacks or sending compromising traffic. |
