Keeping accurate time on a network with a NTP time server<\/a> is highly important here is the second part of the article that explains why.<\/p>\n

Legal protection \u2013 Whether it is a payment dispute with a supplier or customer or even a case of fraud committed against your company only an accurate method of synchronisation will be accepted as a legal defence. An NTP time server <\/a>is legally auditable and can be used as evidence in a court of law.<\/p>\n

Company Credibility:
\nBeing victim to any of these potential hazards can have devastating effects on your own business but also that of your suppliers and customers. Once word gets out too it will soon become common knowledge amongst your competitors, customers and suppliers as news travels quickly in the business world. Keeping credibility is a good enough reason in itself to ensure a computer network is adequately synchronised.<\/p>\n

If you have answered yes to any of the above questions then it is time your company invested in a dedicated NTP time server<\/a> to accurately synchronise you computer network to.\u00a0 Dedicated time servers<\/a> use the protocol NTP<\/a> (Network Time Protocol) as a method of distributing a single time source around the internet. UTC (Coordinated Universal Time<\/a>) is the preferred time standard that most networks are synchronised to.<\/p>\n

An NTP time server<\/a> can receive a secure and accurate UTC time signal from the GPS network or from long wave radio transmissions broadcast by several national physics laboratories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
