Network installation, security, and ongoing support

Cedar Networking installs and configures switches, routers, firewalls, and related network equipment to carry out an engineer’s design. Frank typically works alongside the system integrator and project team to get the equipment operating in the field, including at remote facilities and pump stations.

When conditions differ from the drawings, he helps identify the issue and coordinate a practical resolution with the team.

Frank gets to know the equipment, connections, and configuration already in place, including how remote sites communicate with the main facility. He documents what he finds, identifies weak points, and works with the client and project team to prioritize practical improvements.

Industrial communication problems can cross equipment, cabling, configuration, and system boundaries. Cedar Networking investigates unreliable connections, isolates faults, and implements approved improvements. Ongoing work can include equipment upgrades, network documentation, and support as the system evolves.

Cedar Networking reviews and configures firewall rules, network access, and remote connections with the operational needs of the SCADA system in mind. Frank helps separate SCADA networks from business IT networks and control access between them, with the system’s operating requirements in mind.

Cedar Networking configures and monitors backup protection for SCADA servers and workstations, including solutions such as Acronis Cyber Protect. Ongoing support can include reviewing backup results, managing storage and media rotation, and testing restores so recovery capability is demonstrated rather than assumed.

Ongoing support includes maintenance and security checks matched to the agreed scope, with a monthly report of completed work, findings, and recommended follow-up.

Where useful, Frank automates routine information gathering to make checks more consistent and reduce manual work.

Cedar Networking also supports small-business networks, firewalls, servers, and backup systems. Contact Frank about troubleshooting, equipment upgrades, security improvements, or ongoing IT support.
