Modern infrastructure has at its foundation an intelligent, automated, software-driven network. IT organizations that lack an adaptable network simply can’t keep pace with today’s business demand. But modernization comes at a price, including new devices, remote workforces, vendor lock-in, outdated documentation, and multi-cloud adoption, each of which widens your attack surface and requires a continuum of updated security processes.
Further, the modernization process itself presents obstacles, including poor system integration, misalignment with business needs, and executive opposition. Anexinet’s Network Modernization Assessment analyses your network’s strengths and weaknesses in technology, security, tools, management, and architecture to guide your strategic direction with a plan and business justification to boost performance by modernizing your network. Further, we assess your LAN, WAN, Wireless, and Remote Access architecture to enable support of technical and business goals while accommodating future initiatives.
Additional Network Modernization Assessment benefits include:
Assumption validation for existing topology
Reduced administrative costs and complexities
A plan to ensure disaster survival by optimizing reliability, uptime, integrity, and fault tolerance.
Remediation steps to alleviate critical concerns
Insight into undocumented devices and areas of misalignment
Alignment of network strategy with business goals
Preparedness for secure Hybrid IT adoption
Our proven approach assesses the maturity of your network infrastructure, typically over a 4-week period:
Current State Analysis
We begin our network assessment by reviewing our scope, identifying key Business and Technical stakeholders, and analyzing your network landscape.
Technology Review
Next, we conduct onsite workshops, interview stakeholders, and review key systems, business processes, and documentation. This enables us to fully understand your network infrastructure, including process dependencies, pain points and opportunities for both the Business and Technology teams. Additionally, we assess how the network must support your technical and business goals while accommodating future initiatives and growth.
Findings, Roadmap & Recommendations
Here, we review our findings, discuss any issues, and describe how they impact your business goals along with any ongoing/future projects. Finally, we devise a plan and business justification to transform and modernize your network.
