IT for Aliso Viejo’s business parks

Aliso Viejo was planned around business parks, and it is home to software, life sciences and medical device companies as well as regional and corporate offices. These organizations often answer customer security questionnaires, protect intellectual property and need engineering-grade networks — while running lean internal IT teams.

Pacific Park and Aliso Viejo’s device makers

Aliso Viejo was planned so people could live close to where they work. The 900-acre Pacific Park business park and town center sits in the middle of the city, and the original master plan put every home within 1.5 miles of it. The result is a city of office campuses, labs and corporate floors, many of them a short drive from employees’ homes.

The city’s largest employers are medical device and diagnostics companies, alongside a major shipping hub and insurance and software offices. For IT, that mix calls for:

  • Lab, engineering and office traffic on separate network segments, so a guest laptop or shared printer can’t reach research data
  • Access reviews and logs you can hand to a customer or auditor without a scramble
  • Company laptops managed and protected the same way at home as they are on campus
  • Office moves and expansions planned months ahead, since companies here regularly grow into new buildings or consolidate floors

The 73 runs straight through Aliso Viejo, so our engineers cover the 17 miles from Huntington Beach without touching the 5. See how we approach network engineering for multi-floor and lab environments.

Wood Canyon and the 2018 Aliso Fire

Aliso Viejo’s offices sit close to open space. On June 2, 2018, the Aliso Fire started in Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park, between Aliso Viejo and Laguna Beach, and burned 175 acres, according to CAL FIRE. Mandatory evacuations covered about 2,000 homes around Wood Canyon and Pacific Park drives, and about 1,500 residents of Laguna Beach’s Top of the World neighborhood had to leave as well.

A fire that closes Pacific Park Drive for an afternoon can shut an office even if no building burns. Plan for it before fire season:

  • Files and business applications reachable from any managed laptop, so staff can work from home the same day
  • Main phone numbers that ring through to mobile apps when nobody can reach the office
  • Backups replicated off site, with recovery times agreed for your most important systems
  • A current staff contact list and one named person who decides when to close
