More often than not when Cornell Enterprise performs a network checkup for a new client we find serious issues in six different but distinct areas:

• No Backups - Over 40% of the time either the backups are not running, forgotten or simply miss-configured and backing-up the wrong data!



• Anti-Virus/Anti-Spyware - Usually installed, but more often (about 65% of the time) disabled or out of date and thus largely ineffective.



• Security - frequently not in place at all and leading to anyone with modest computer knowledge full access. Just under 90% of the time we find serious security flaws.



• No Restore Software - it is extremely common (a bit over 90%) that we don't find all the software that would be required to perform a system recovery after a disaster.



• No Documentation of Crucial Information - while this extremely easy to rectify more than 85% of our audits yield no usable documentation of network configuration, administrative accounts and passwords or key vendors providing crucial services.



• No Health Monitoring - time and time again (almost 99%) Cornell Enterprise performs a Technology Checkup only to discover serious hardware or configuration issues that were previously unknown because no one was looking for the problem.
