At first glance having your business applications off-site may seem weak from
the security standpoint. But in fact, Herbst Application Hosting sets a
higher level of security than you can normally achieve on your own. This is
possible due to the following reasons:
Data-centre security
With Herbst Application Hosting your programmes, such as Herbst Insight
or Herbst HRM, and respective databases are physically located on a remote
server in a first-class data-centre. Data-centres boast unmatched security
because security is their primary responsibility.
For instance, data centres have policies on restricting access to the
premises. They have their own power generators in case of a power failure.
There’re actually so-called “multiple levels of redundancy” that help keep
the servers online in the event of a disaster. Above all, data centres
regularly undergo stringent security assessments.
A simple analogy here: people use banks to store large sums of money. You
know that banks are guarded well and offer protection against all sorts of
risks. Resorting to banks is far more secure than keeping money in cash in
your apartment.
Same goes for Herbst Application Hosting - your business applications and
databases are safe in the hands of professionals.
Regular backups
Part of Herbst Application Hosting is daily backup and database
validation done by our specialists. Every backup file is kept for 30 days.
Secure connection
Technically speaking, connection to a remotely-hosted application is
established using a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) over a secure Virtual
Private Network (VPN). Our servers run under Windows 2003 Server operating
system, which is winning high praise for its top-notch security facilities.
