| NIC can evaluate and compete connectivity options from all major
tier one carriers as well as the major competitive local area exchange
carriers (CLECs). The criteria for picking one carrier over the others
depends on things like type of connection, bandwidth, distance,
security, and, of course, price. Some carries have a better options for
companies with locations in different parts of the country. Others
may have great options for companies whose offices are in one state or
region. |

| Security issues are also an important factor. Most or many banks use
Frame Relay, for example, because of inherent security. This may also be
a good choice for medical offices who are concerned with patient data
confidentiality. Virtual private networking (VPN) is a secure choice for
using the Internet for secure data communications. |
| |
| Regardless, making a selection of the types of carriers you use is a
complicated and generally confusing process. All to frequently customers
get sold solutions that are more expensive than they need, are not the
most cost effective, or are not the most reliable. NIC can help you make
these solutions so that you get you your best value. |
