Access control

Firewall rules, VPN access, and exposure are reviewed so the network is easier to understand and safer to operate.

Segmentation

Guest, staff, servers, and remote access paths are separated where the business risk justifies it.

Supportable deployment

Deployments are documented and handed over so future troubleshooting starts from a clear baseline, not from assumptions.

Firewall and network work should leave the business with a cleaner, easier-to-support environment, not a black box that nobody wants to touch later. When access rules, VPN paths, or segmentation have grown ad hoc, a review usually pays for itself by reducing risk and confusion.

HandleTec Solutions reviews, redesigns, and deploys practical network and firewall changes for SMEs that need stronger control over access, exposure, and supportability.

The work should make the network easier to explain, safer to operate, and less dependent on undocumented exceptions or inherited assumptions.

What this work can include

  • Firewall rule review
  • VPN and secure remote access setup
  • Basic network segmentation
  • Guest and corporate network separation
  • Exposure and access-path review
  • Firewall deployment and handover
  • Post-deployment management for HandleTec-deployed firewalls

Best when

  • Firewall rules have accumulated without clear structure
  • Remote access has grown ad hoc and nobody fully trusts it
  • Guest, staff, server, and admin traffic need clearer separation
  • The current network is difficult to support, audit, or hand over

Service options

Starting prices provide a useful entry point. Final pricing is confirmed after reviewing the environment, requirements, timeline, support needs, and any third-party costs.

Network & Firewall Review

Review firewall rules, VPN access, segmentation, exposure, and operational network risk. This is a review-only engagement.

Starting scope

  • Remote review of one firewall or router setup
  • Basic rule and access review
  • Identify guest and corporate network overlap
  • Recommend a segmentation approach
  • Short findings summary
  • No implementation included

Remediation, deployment, hardware, site visits, and redesign work are quoted separately.

Firewall / VPN / Network Deployment

Includes HandleTec-supplied firewall hardware where deployment is part of the scope, initial configuration, firewall rules, VPN setup where required, remote management setup, testing, and handover notes.

Starting scope

  • One small business location
  • HandleTec-supplied firewall hardware where firewall deployment is included
  • Initial firewall configuration and rule setup
  • Basic network segmentation
  • Guest and corporate access separation
  • VPN setup where required
  • Remote management setup
  • Testing and handover notes

Final pricing depends on site requirements, number of users, network complexity, VPN needs, and any additional switching, cabling, or wireless work.

Post-Deployment Firewall Management

Available only for firewalls deployed by HandleTec. Includes uptime monitoring, configuration backup, basic health checks, update review, and minor administrative changes.

Excludes major rule redesign, VLAN redesign, VPN redesign, site visits, after-hours emergency response, troubleshooting caused by unsupported devices, and unrelated network issues. These are quoted separately.

Firewall deployments use HandleTec-supplied hardware so the environment can be tested, documented, maintained, and supported predictably. Client-supplied firewall hardware is not used for standard deployments.

What the first engagement should give you

  • A clearer view of exposure, access paths, and support risks
  • A recommendation on whether cleanup, replacement, redesign, or deployment is the right next move
  • Better confidence that the network can be documented and maintained properly

Common question

Can you manage our existing firewall?

For standard monthly firewall management, HandleTec only manages firewalls it has deployed. Existing third-party or client-supplied firewalls can still be reviewed first, then any cleanup, replacement, or ongoing support is quoted separately.

Good fit for

  • Businesses with messy firewall rules or unclear remote access paths
  • SMEs that need guest and corporate network separation
  • Teams that want a cleaner VPN and secure access setup
  • Environments where the current network is difficult to explain, audit, or hand over

Next step

If firewall rules, VPN access, or segmentation need attention, start with a Systems Check or a Network & Firewall Review.
