InterDataLink, Inc.

Firms across the New York City region, from Manhattan to northern New Jersey, can hand their whole computer estate to one provider. InterDataLink, Inc. has run managed IT there since 2009, combining network monitoring, networking, security, cloud hosting and everyday support under one contract.

One contract for the whole office network

The firm sells its managed IT as a single package with predictable monthly billing. Clients receive round-the-clock network monitoring, patch management, monthly reporting and quarterly reviews, together with a named technical account manager who has direct access to senior engineers. The company says it aims to answer requests in under an hour and that most clients notice real improvement within 30 days of the work starting.

Networking, wiring and hands-on repairs

Networking covers Wi-Fi 6E wireless, SD-WAN links, firewalls and structured cabling, with upkeep after installation, so wireless coverage, links between sites and the cabling inside a building are managed by the same team that watches the rest of the systems. A separate strand handles the physical side of IT: repairs, hardware installation, setup and troubleshooting for offices and for home workspaces. Same-day dispatch is offered across the five service areas, the remote help desk takes requests first, and technicians attend in person when a fault needs hands on the equipment. Asset recovery is included for firms that are moving premises or retiring old machines.

Security, backup and recovery

The cybersecurity work is aimed at malware, phishing, ransomware, data breaches, insider threats and unauthorized access. The company says its controls are aligned with HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS and New York DFS Part 500 requirements. Data backup and recovery sit alongside it, and virus and malware removal is offered for machines already affected, so that a client's files can be restored after an incident and infected equipment brought back into use.

Cloud services and server hosting

Infrastructure, platform and software as a service are offered as cloud options, and server hosting is available as well. These sit under the same agreement as monitoring and support, which means the team responsible for a client's on-site systems is also the one that plans and runs any hosted part of its environment.

How an engagement begins

Work starts with a no-obligation audit of the network and infrastructure. The client receives a documented inventory, a risk assessment and an improvement roadmap, and keeps them whether or not it signs up. After that the team deploys monitoring, documents each system, fixes the urgent faults first and builds a twelve-month plan for the rest. The company describes the process as transparent, with the client told what is being done, why it is being done and what it will cost.

Sectors with compliance duties

The firm says it works with businesses in financial services, legal practice, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, creative agencies and logistics. Some of these clients operate under specific rules, including HIPAA for medical practices and 21 CFR Part 11 for regulated life-science work, and the firm says it configures its services to meet them. Its customers run from one-room offices to larger firms with demanding network requirements.
