Firewall Setup.
We configure a firewall at your office network perimeter so only the traffic your business needs gets in or out. The work covers rule design, separate network zones for guests and devices, secure Wi-Fi settings, firmware updates, administrator access, logging and time synchronisation, in line with CERT-In's baseline controls and directions.
Typically 2–5 working days per site once the hardware is in place. The number of network zones, sites and services to publish drive the time.

Firewall Setup, step by step.
Typically 2–5 working days per site once the hardware is in place. The number of network zones, sites and services to publish drive the time.
- 1
Network review
We map internet links, devices, servers, Wi-Fi and the services that must be reachable.
- 2
Zone design
We design zones such as staff, servers, guests and CCTV, and the traffic allowed between them.
- 3
Firewall configuration
The firewall is configured with least-privilege rules, default credentials changed, unused services disabled and firmware updated.
- 4
Logging and time
Logs are enabled and retained, and the device clock is synchronised with NIC or NPL time servers or sources traceable to them.
- 5
Testing and handover
We test access from each zone and hand over the rule base and admin credentials securely.
What we need from you.
Don't have everything yet? We send a short checklist after the first call and work with what you have.
- Firewall make and model, or a decision on which to buy
- Internet service details and public IP addresses
- List of servers, devices and services that need access
- Remote access requirements
- An admin contact for change approvals
The fee depends on your situation. After a short call, the partner who will do the work tells you what's involved and gives you a fixed fee in writing — before any work begins.
- Government fees and statutory charges are billed at actuals.
- When you pay — upfront, in stages or on completion — is agreed in writing with the fee.
