Servers and security

Dell servers with Linux or Windows operating systems, all of which have use Intel Pentium processors, fast Ethernet adapters.

Shared servers run a RAID based disk redundancy solution, should any of the primary disk drives fail, a secondary disk drive can take over the work load with no loss of availability.  Each server also has a replication partner which can take over its workload in the event of a problem or during planned maintenance.  In addition, data on our servers is backed up.

The network is protected by multiple firewalls; protecting your website from malicious attacks, viruses and trojans.
