Customer Premise Equipment (CPE)

Ultimate ownership of PCI compliance of the store network will always fall on the merchant, but is your MSP providing your chain with the tools you need to get compliant or stay compliant? By taking a hardware agnostic stance, while at the same time certifying best-of-breed appliances, software, and subscription services, IRG's CPE portfolio offers customers maximum flexibility in security appliances selection without compromising client requirements or IRG best practices. Clients may bring their own security appliance or choose from any one of IRG's certified manufacturers like Cisco, Juniper, Sonicwall, or Fortinet. In an IPSec environment, this security appliance is intelligence at the edge of the connection, routinely providing firewall, routing, and subscription policy management. IRG performs careful due diligence prior to certifying any CPE, to ensure its security capabilities, remote management, and subscription services meet IRG's stringent guidelines. Finally, peripheral CPE such as IP-addressed power management, wireless access points, PoE injectors, and wireline/wireless termination devices round out the IRG CPE portfolio.

Finally, IRG's PCI-complaint Network Operations Center (NOC) houses all certified manufacturer's Enterprise Management Systems so customers can rent 'virtual instances' versus spending precious capital on owning their own management platforms. Furthermore, IRG's Engineering team can assist your team with proper sizing of CPE, while our Finance team can help with the facilitation of finance terms from a third party institution.
