Why We Do It

     In today's world, we continue to see the evolution of cutting-edge technology and how it increasingly drives every aspect of our lives. Now more than ever, regardless of physical location, millions of people are connected to the information grid - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. While this enables our society to be more efficient, effective, and productive, it also introduces ever-changing security concerns such as privacy invasions; unauthorized access; fraud; identity theft; information disclosure; modification of systems; disruption of networks; or destruction of information and data. As we are no longer confined by brick and mortar, boundaries are virtually non-existent. This also introduces concerns and issues with the management, performance, and operation of not only projects but the systems, networks, information, and data which power them - while the need still remains to ensure confidentiality, integrity and availability.

     The new digital age in which we all now live demands experts who are able to manage, engineer, secure, operate, and maintain the infrastructures, technologies, applications, and data which operate and transmit on a continuous basis. These types of services are needed and sought after by government agencies, commercial institutes, and private clients. It is Zermount's goal to provide all of our clients and customers with the best and brightest experts to perform these services and assist them in meeting goals and accomplishing the mission.
