Frontier is dedicated to utilizing the most current technology to provide the greatest quality of service to its clients.
 
Connected
Each Frontier location is connected to the Internet via at least one synchronous, high-speed data line. These lines are leveraged to provide a secured VPN, which supports reliable inter-site communication.
 
Frontier also maintains reliable connectivity to its clients and vendors via location-specific SAP interfaces and online access to enable rapid information sharing and to reduce overhead and human error.
 
Secured
Frontier employs a multi-layered hardware and software approach to security at the perimeter, point-of-access gateways, servers, and desktops. All of Frontier’s locations are secured via state-of-the-art firewalls, VPN encryption, multi-site VLANs, intrusion detection, and anti-virus technologies. All of these measures are constantly monitored and updated to ensure that Frontier’s network and client information is kept secured and protected.
 
Reliable & Scalable
Frontier’s systems were built from the ground-up with reliability, flexibility, and scalability as their foundation. Frontier pursues a multi-layered, proactive approach to provide adaptive, fault-tolerant systems. Prior to purchase and deployment, all network devices are thoroughly researched and tested. Monitoring solutions provide day-to-day post-deployment support. Periodic evaluations are also performed to ensure the integrity of each network device as well as the network performance as a whole. As a last line-of-defense to ensure reliability, all data is backed up regularly to protect against hardware failure. Data from internal mission-critical systems is also encrypted and then distributed across all network sites to provide rapid disaster recovery response.
 
All of Frontier’s hardware and software solutions are designed and deployed to enable near-effortless adaptation to changes in the industry as well as our client’s needs. Although each device is configured to operate in its current configuration, strict adherence to industry standards and development procedures allows for the possibility of radical changes to network topology and/or functionality with little or no impact to service levels.
 
Innovative
Frontier prides itself in constantly developing and evaluating its infrastructure to incorporate the latest technologies to reduce cost and increase the quality of its services.
