We're Perimeter Six, a Networking and IT business in Jacksonville, NC. A veteran-owned IT and cybersecurity company built on one conviction: networks should be run like missions — planned, monitored, never left unguarded.
Our mission is simple: help you run your network like a mission. And that means staying ahead of the curve. So here's what we're seeing in August 2026.
The Cloud Continues to DominateIt seems like every year, someone says "this is the year of the cloud." But this time, they're right. The cloud isn't just a trend anymore; it's the default. It's not about whether you should move to the cloud; it's about how you move to the cloud.
And that means security is more important than ever. You can't just throw your data into someone else's servers and hope for the best. You need to know where your data is, who has access to it, and what they're doing with it. And that's where we come in. We specialize in cloud security, so you can sleep at night knowing your data is safe.
5G Is Here, but It's Not a Panacea5G is finally here, and it's fast. But it's not a panacea. Yes, it's faster than 4G, but that doesn't mean your network will run like a dream if you just upgrade to 5G. You still need to plan, monitor, and secure your network. And that means keeping an eye on your bandwidth usage, making sure your devices are optimized for the new speeds, and making sure your security is up to snuff.
The Internet of Things Is Exploding, but So Are Security RisksThe Internet of Things (IoT) is exploding. We're connecting everything from our fridges to our cars, and it's changing the way we live and work. But it's also creating new security risks. Each new device is a potential entry point for hackers, and each one needs to be secured properly.
The Rise of Zero TrustSpeaking of security, there's a new buzzword in town: zero trust. It's not a new concept; it's just a new name for an old idea: don't trust anyone. In the world of cybersecurity, that means assuming everyone is a potential threat and taking steps to protect your network accordingly.
The Importance of Planning and MonitoringNo matter what new technologies come along, the importance of planning and monitoring your network remains the same. You need to know where your data is, who has access to it, and what they're doing with it. And you need to keep an eye on your bandwidth usage, your device optimization, and your security measures.
In short, networks should be run like missions — planned, monitored, never left unguarded. That's our conviction, and that's why we do what we do. We help you plan, monitor, and secure your network so you can focus on your mission.
