In order to protect your servers from multiple network attacks and secure your hosting solution in a cost-effective way, iWeb offers the Cisco ASA Adaptive Security Appliances.
A firewall is the first component of a secure hosting solution. It acts as a filter between your server and the Internet in order to block malicious attempts to access your server and allow only legitimate traffic.

VPN Services
A VPN is a private network configured within the Internet (or another public network). The VPN allows remote access to your server in a secure way using an encrypted VPN Tunnel. Contact our sales team if you are interested by advanced VPN services.
DDOS Protection
iWeb's DDOS Protection service offers both on-site and distributed high-level mode filtering allowing us to mitigate and reduce the impacts of incoming denial of service attacks of up to 1 Gigabit of traffic at 500k pps in on-site mode, even more in distributed mode.
Vulnerability Scanning and Assessment
Using a vulnerability scanning software, iWeb can provide you with a list of security issues affecting your server and the risk level associated to it so you can take actions and protect your server accordingly.
