Nova operates a 24/7/365 Network Operations Centre (NOC) that uses a combination of
Incident/Problem Management
Sophisticated monitoring tools automatically generate incident tickets that the NOC responds to immediately by troubleshooting, notifying the appropriate contact, resolving the incident or escalating to the appropriate group as required.
Engineers carry out root cause analysis to find a permanent solution. This will prevent the problem from recurring.
Change Management
Nova performs all changes as required, including standard maintenance changes, problem fixes, capacity planning changes, etc.
Nova’s rigorous change processes mean that accuracy and careful planning are key to achieving an almost 100% change success rate.
Service-Level Agreement (SLA) Management
Meeting monthly SLA targets, such as Time to Restore, is considered a fundamental aspect of our service, a basic expectation for every client.
Tickets are categorised by priority and SLAs differ for each priority level:
P1 – Impacts 5 or more users
P2 – Impacts up to 5 users or significant risk
P3 – Warning of imminent problem
P4 – Informational

What does it cover?
Benefits
Nova Networks offers both IT Audits (complete review of IT services) and IT Discoveries (included with our Service Agreements).
Our customisable audits examine your networks from access rights to licensing compliance and security. The goal is to understand the business purpose of your IT infrastructure.
All Nova Network’s customisable IT audits begin with interviews with key individuals within your organisation to gain an understanding of all business objectives, policies and procedures. We conclude with a meeting to review the fully documented findings and recommendations.
Nova Networks’ tailored IT audits include but are not limited to:
Desktop/Server Systems
The systems, hardware, configurations, applications, databases and services that currently reside on your infrastructure.
Physical Infrastructure
Cabling, internet access, racks and cabinets, server room power and air, firewalls, VPN, DMZ, switches, cabling, routers and other non-computer equipment.
Networking
Network configuration and services: naming/addressing, file and print services, logical organisation, user permissions, backup system, performance, reliability and design redundancy.
Applications & Licensing
All applications deployed on a system and residing on servers to determine access rights, licence compliance, performance and availability.
Security Assessment
Firewalls, perimeter, devices, configurations, connectivity, access to web and other servers, operating systems, software, anti-virus updates and possible vulnerable external entry points.
These findings are analysed and a series of prioritised recommendations are made. Nova can provide templates for missing documentation such as disaster recovery plans, policies, server/desktop event and change logs, and a non-technical glossary.
