Title: Networking and IT update — 2026-08-12
It's 2026, and the world of networking and IT has changed dramatically. The days when you could just throw up a network and forget about it are long gone. Now, networks need to be run like missions—planned, monitored, never left unguarded.
That's the conviction that drives Perimeter Six, a veteran-owned IT and cybersecurity company based in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Our founder, a seasoned military veteran, learned firsthand how important it is to keep networks secure. And he brought that mindset to our work in networking and IT.
In the last few years, we've seen an explosion of new technologies that have changed the game for networking and IT. From 5G to edge computing, from AI to blockchain, these technologies are revolutionizing how we think about networks. But they also present new challenges.
One of the biggest challenges is security. With so many new technologies and so much data flowing through networks, it's easier than ever for hackers to find a way in. That's why we take security seriously at Perimeter Six. We believe that networks should be run like missions—planned, monitored, never left unguarded.
Another challenge is complexity. With so many new technologies and so much data flowing through networks, it's harder than ever to keep track of everything. That's why we focus on simplifying the complex. We believe that networking and IT should be simple, transparent, and easy to understand.
So what does all this mean for you? It means that if you want your network to stay secure and simple, you need to take a proactive approach. You need to plan your network, monitor it constantly, and make sure it's always up-to-date with the latest security measures. And you need to do all this while keeping an eye on the big picture—the overall health of your network, and how it fits into your business strategy.
