Week Three with Prisma Graphic

During my third week at Prisma I was introduced to many more workers at Prisma as I installed antivirus on their computers. Most of my time at Prisma has been spent on getting the new antivirus put on all of the computers on site and putting the number identifiers into the database Prisma has on Sharepoint. Sharepoint is a web-based paid service from Microsoft that allows people to collaborate with each other using lists that can be accessed through menus on Sharepoint. Microsoft Office is also integrated into Sharepoint to make it easier to integrate Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and Outlook mail service. As I ended my week at Prisma I had the opportunity to visit Iron Mountain Data Center, which hosts server racks for various companies and private entities. Through Iron Mountain a company can purchase server racks, full cages, rooms, or even pods of server racks.

These each hold server components for a company, for example Iron Mountain is where Prisma runs their network through so their firewall is actually located at Iron Mountain. The network then runs to where Prisma's buildings are located, through fiberglass connections the speeds are running at fast rate to ensure that the network connections at Prisma are running smoothly.
