Infrastructure Services

1Link Solution believes that organizations will be more responsive to the marketplace and have a more open environment for innovation and transformation when they have an agile infrastructure that is enabled by cloud computing and new outsourcing models.

The ultimate objectives are to enable a business or government to quickly take control of its IT costs, enhance its system security, improve its ability to support its business and operating strategy, and self-fund longer-term, IT-enabled improvements that drive additional value and high performance. Consideration of sourcing strategies—whether to co-source or outsource—should also form part of the overall plan. 1Link Solution takes a three-phased approach to create an agile infrastructure that is manageable, cost-effective, and minimally disruptive to ongoing business operations.

3-Phased

Phase One: Start with a comprehensive consolidation and standardization program to reduce complexity, expense, and operations and management challenges.

Phase Two: Extend the benefits of phase one activities by superimposing a virtual layer on the newly standardized IT environment.

Phase Three: Allow the organization to fully exploit utility-style computing capabilities as they are realized. Organizations will be able to tap into IT capacity from third-party vendors and pay for only the capacity or type of service or resources they use. These early adopters will be the leaders that help to shape how this “utility-style” model works.

IT Security Services

High-performance organizations know that secure data, applications, infrastructures—and protected identities—are crucial foundations for success.

With the rapid technological advances, increased market pressures, and growing sophistication in security threats, IT organizations must move from pure compliance to proactive defense and value creation. IT leaders have to perform a delicate balancing act between mitigating risks and driving growth. Incorrect emphasis can render an organization vulnerable, or unable to move with the necessary agility to compete in the competitive global marketplace.1LS’sSecurity Solutions professionals leverage decades of experience, deep industry knowledge, and business-process know-how to create pragmatic, flexible approaches that can help protect against threats, minimize risks and adopt new technologies needed to grow.

Security Strategy & Risk Management

Security Strategy and Risk Management High-performance businesses and governments understand the important role that IT plays in their ongoing success—and take care to safeguard this vital capability. The stakes are high in this era of viruses, hackers, and other threats, 1LS Security Strategy and Risk Management offers a customized innovative approach to address these threats.

The first step is to evaluate your current security arrangements against comprehensive baseline criteria to identify potential IT risks. If your security standards do not meet the baseline, you are facing a potentially serious IT security risk.

Security Risk Management

The continual process of identifying and managing risks through three main elements: a comprehensive baseline, cross-enterprise risk assessments, and metrics reporting.

Comprehensive Baseline:

A target baseline to assess current security arrangements.

Risk Assessment:

The process of assessing current security against a comprehensive baseline to identify risks and determine the following:

Threats to assets and the likelihood of occurrence.

Vulnerabilities and weaknesses in security procedures, design, implementation, or controls.

Business impacts, including financial loss, exposure of confidential data, loss of reputation and so on.

Business risk, including the potential damage or loss of an asset, including value, impact, and likelihood of occurrence.

Information Protection Services

It’s one of the most important assets organizations must safeguard in today’s business environment. The amount of information and its strategic value has been growing to staggering levels, as has executive management’s awareness of the ability to exploit it. Data has become a distinct competitive advantage and must be kept safe from loss, corruption and unauthorized disclosure.

Significant security trends affecting information include:

Rising cybercrime
Pervasive mobility and IT Consumerization
Globally interconnected businesses
A steady increase in reported security breaches (In the US alone, more than 263 million records containing sensitive personal information have been involved in security breaches since January 2005.)
Increasing rigor in global regulations

1Link Solution Information Protection Services offer scalable and adaptable frameworks to help organizations meet their privacy requirements and address regulatory and policy compliance issues. Our solutions merge technical controls and governance processes to appropriately protect sensitive information within the enterprise

Infrastructure Outsourcing Services

Infrastructure Outsourcing Services1LS’s approach to infrastructure outsourcing enables companies to achieve high performance, including cutting costs and sustaining profitability during these economic times. The ongoing 1Link Solution High-Performance Business research initiative has revealed that top companies invest their time, talent, and capital to develop those competencies that will set them apart from their competitors.

For them, outsourcing activities that are not core to their mission is an appealing option.IT infrastructure management is typically not considered a distinctive or differentiating capability. 1LS research has repeatedly shown, however, that it is a critical enabler of business success.

High-performance businesses understand that a cost-efficient, highly flexible, and scalable infrastructure model allows them to respond to market changes, improve operational efficiencies, elevate performance, and jump-start new growth. It is easy to understand why there has been a surge in IT infrastructure outsourcing. Today’s highly competitive business environment, coupled with a volatile economic climate, demands that organizations do more with less.

In addition to reducing costs, IT infrastructure outsourcing provides a management model whereby organizations can move away from complex and inefficient IT environments and instead build IT capabilities that are more scalable, agile, reliable, and responsive to business needs.1LS is uniquely positioned to help organizations maximize the business value of their IT investments and lay a foundation for high performance with infrastructure outsourcing.
