Overview
Server security is critical to operational success – breaches disrupt operations, undermine customer confidence and halt productivity. Negligent practices may even expose you to unforeseen legal liabilities. Managing a secure computing environment requires more than a one-time quick fix; you need a trustworthy, reliable team to keep everything secure, and rackAID can be your team. From server hardening to vulnerability audits and incident response, we provide a range of security services to keep hackers, phishers and spammers out of your systems.
Technical Details
Server hardening
Default configurations often lack critical security adjustments. Ours start with a security assessment using Nessus, a leading security tool, to survey your IT vulnerabilities. Our staff then works through each item, securing your system, until the vulnerability audits pass. This approach allows us to respond to the constantly changing threat landscape and delivers value far beyond a simple checklist.
Email security
rackAID has partnered with MXLogic to deliver a comprehensive email protection suit. Anti-virus, anti-spam, content filtering and email continuity services combine to deliver a turnkey, cost-effective method to combat email-based threats.
Vulnerability scanning
New exploits emerge daily. Staying on top of these threats requires staff follow-up on automated scan results. We have several vulnerability scanning options that allow us to scan your IT operations monthly, weekly or even daily. Our team then responds to any suspected threat and assists you in securing your IT environment. By keeping a vigilant watch on your systems, we mitigate the risk of a security compromise.
Security breach assistance
Have you been hacked? rackAID can investigate a compromised system and recommend a best course of action to reactivate your IT services as quickly and safely as possible. We always recommend identifying the vector of the attack so you can prevent future breaches. Once the security gap is filled, you can fire up your IT services again, confident that a similar breach will be unlikely.
Web site protection
Web application exploits are the number-one threat to IT operations today. By employing a web application firewall, you can mitigate this threat and prevent exploits even before they are discovered. By blocking classes of malicious traffic at the firewall level, your web application is protected from serious threats such as XSS, SQL injection and command execution.
Firewall management
Security is best done in layers, and a critical layer is your network. A properly configured firewall can mitigate risks, reduce the impact of an intrusion and prevent costly security breaches. Using IPTables, Cisco, and other firewalls, rackAID can assist you in deploying and configuring a comprehensive firewall protection strategy.
Server management
Good security starts with good server maintenance. Our server management program assures security patches are applied quickly and correctly to your systems. Patching your system often prevents minor security threats from becoming root-level compromises.
Managed hosting
Too much to handle? Our managed hosting solutions can be combined with our security services to provide a secure, scalable hosting environment.
Testimonials
"I’ve had a great experience with rackAID. They were skillfully able to traverse a very difficult dual server migration when a filesystem corruption wreaked havoc on our systems. Cheers to Jeff and his crew for their quick, professional advice and support. Sign me up for the long haul."
