Networking and Cybersecurity Solutions

At Gensystems we advise organizations on selecting and supplying enterprise networking and cybersecurity solutions, organized into three lines: firewall, switching and networking.

Firewall

The firewall is the main control point between your company's network and the internet: it inspects traffic, enforces security policies, controls applications and provides encrypted VPNs to connect sites and remote staff. An enterprise firewall in Ecuador is sized by users, sites and remote access, and needs an active license to keep receiving updated protections.

Switching

Switches connect the company's devices within the network: computers, servers, phones, cameras and access points. Managed switches let you segment the network with VLANs, power devices over PoE and manage everything centrally.

Compliance and the Cybersecurity Law (LOPFC)

Ecuador's Organic Law for the Strengthening of Cybersecurity (LOPFC) sets out risk management and incident response obligations. In practice, compliance in Ecuador relies on technical controls such as firewalls, network segmentation, endpoint protection, backup and monitoring. This is not legal advice: the scope should be validated with a lawyer.

Cybersecurity for the public sector

According to the published guidance, the LOPFC applies mainly to the public sector. For a public institution in Ecuador, compliance translates into risk management, technical controls, incident response capability and documentation; the best starting point is an assessment.

Where should you start securing your company's network?

The recommended order is: first know what is connected, then protect the perimeter with a manageable firewall, segment the network, protect endpoints and, finally, monitor and back up. A network assessment lets you define that order based on your company's size and budget.

If your operation cannot sustain continuous monitoring with its own team, you can outsource it: managed services and IT outsourcing. And if you are unsure between EDR, XDR and MDR, we have a guide to help you choose the right one (in Spanish).

Frequently asked questions about networking and cybersecurity

What does an enterprise networking and cybersecurity solution include?

We work across three lines: firewall, to protect the perimeter and connect sites and remote staff over VPN; switching, to connect and segment the internal network; and networking, for connectivity across offices, plants and branches. These are complemented by enterprise Wi-Fi and network monitoring and, where appropriate, a security audit to define policies, network segmentation and access controls.

Which networking and cybersecurity brands does Gensystems work with?

For firewalls we work with Sophos and Fortinet; for switching, with HPE Aruba Networking and Cisco; and for networking, with Huawei. The solution is chosen based on company size, budget and the team's capacity to manage it.

Do you serve companies in Quito and Guayaquil?

Yes. Gensystems has offices in Guayaquil and Quito and serves companies in both cities with its own technical team.

How much does a networking and cybersecurity solution cost?

It depends on the number of users and sites, the equipment and licenses required and the level of monitoring needed. That is why we start with a no-obligation assessment and then deliver a proposal with defined scope and costs.

My company is new or small in Ecuador. Does it need a firewall and cybersecurity?

Yes. Any company with devices connected to the internet, corporate email or customer information is exposed. The recommended approach is to start with a segmented network, a manageable firewall, endpoint protection and backup, and grow from there.

How does this relate to Ecuador's new cybersecurity law?

The law sets out risk management and incident response obligations, which in practice rely on technical controls such as firewalls, endpoint protection, backup and monitoring. We explain that link in our guide to the Cybersecurity Law. This is not legal advice: the scope should be validated with a lawyer.

What does a public sector institution in Ecuador need for its cybersecurity?

According to the published guidance on the new law, for a public institution compliance translates into risk management, technical controls, incident response capability and documentation. The best starting point is an assessment: what you have, what is exposed and what is missing.

What is the difference between enterprise Wi-Fi and a home router?

Enterprise Wi-Fi uses access points managed from a console, with roaming, security and monitoring, designed for many devices connected at the same time in offices, plants or branches.
