Security and Compliance

Many datacentre environments have issues with Compliance and Audit. Dealing with these issues is very time consuming and often costly. However, not dealing with issues leaves the environment running at risk!

Approach

Our approach is to be proactive, rather than reactive! Our server deployments are:

Compliant and Secure

Tested with comprehensive vulnerability scanning software.

Provide consistent environments from Dev through Production and DR

Version controlled with Vendor maintenance patches tested and applied

Reporting and Management

To assist with Compliance and Audit, we also work with a number of products that can help alleviate these issues including:

Vintela Authentication Services (VAS) from Quest: Allowing UNIX and Linux servers and users to authenticate with corporate Microsoft Active Directory servers. This resolves many NIS, NIS+, LDAP and User security and Audit issues. More info at www.vintela.com

ECM Management and Compliance software: Used to manage and report across Window, UNIX and Linux environments. Storing information in a Database, it’s easy to run historical reports for Compliance and Audit. Using a comprehensive Dashboard, it tracks software, patches and reports against regulatory guidelines, including SOX. More info at www.configuresoft.com/ecm.aspx
