Firewall and cybersecurity for SMBs
Most SMB incidents come through doors left open: poorly protected remote access, a flat network where a camera can reach the server, a firewall never updated. Altea installs and configures Fortinet firewalls and UniFi gateways, segments the network, sets up secure remote access and filtering, then verifies the result.

Frequently asked questions
Fortinet or UniFi?
Fortinet for advanced needs (complex VPNs, compliance, high inspected throughput); UniFi for SMBs and simple multi-site setups. See our comparison.
Can you audit an existing firewall?
Yes: rules, remote access and updates are reviewed, with a prioritized report.
Do we still need antivirus?
Yes — the firewall protects the network, not each computer. They complement each other.
