Security

In August 2004, Imagineering launched its new Internet Data Centre, a purpose-built high availability facility in Melbourne offering a wide variety of hosting and co-location options.

Our security infrastructure is made up of a number of distinct ingress points, with a variety of technologies used to protect our clients.

Our core network utilizes Watchguard and Cisco products to provide security and routing, as well and ancillary switching services.

Facilities Security

The IDC is monitored 24 hours each day via dedicated online cameras, each with motion sensors. All visitors to the IDC are required to be escorted by a member of our staff, this ensures that all visitors to the environment are monitored at all times.

All entry points to the IDC require key card, PIN access and physical keys to access, minimizing the chance of unauthorized access. All entry points are monitored 24hrs per day and access is logged for security reasons.

Only primary Imagineering staff have full, unvetted access to the IDC, and even they are required to pass three ingress points before being able to gain access.

Server & Equipment Monitoring

We monitor all our core infrastructure and equipment in real time, proactiving reacting to potential issues. Most of our customer equipment (colocated servers, routers, etc.) are also monitored, with alert notification abilities available to clients.

Firewall Infrastructure

Imagineering uses a variety of firewall appliances and applications to secure our network, including an online IDS and threat detection system.
