Access Control

Access granted only to those who need it

Physical and network access to servers is tightly guarded. Internal access is provisioned individually — team members are only given credentials for the specific servers their role requires. External access is locked to the exact ports needed for HTTP and HTTPS, with anything beyond that subject to IT manager approval.

  • Physical server access limited to key network and infrastructure staff only
  • Internal access provisioned per-user — no shared credentials
  • External access restricted to HTTP and HTTPS ports as standard
  • Additional port access requires explicit IT manager sign-off
  • Three-factor physical access control at our data centre facilities
Operating within Farnborough’s internationally recognised aerospace and event environment, our infrastructure is designed around security, uptime and dependable long-term support.

Firewalls & Intrusion Detection

Multiple layers between threats and your website

Our core network is protected by up-to-date UNIX-based packet-filtering firewalls. An intrusion detection and prevention system guards against a wide variety of web application attack vectors and detects and mitigates DDoS attacks in real time. We also make use of advanced caching and reverse proxy methods to reduce load on backend servers and add an additional layer of protection.

  • Up-to-date UNIX packet-filtering firewalls on the core network
  • Always-on intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS)
  • DDoS detection and mitigation as standard
  • All HTTP and HTTPS traffic passes through a resilient, redundant platform
  • Secure DMZ before any traffic reaches backend servers
  • Advanced caching and reverse proxy for added protection and performance

24/7 Monitoring

We know about issues before you do

A comprehensive monitoring system alerts our networking team around the clock to any issue across the data centre from CPU usage to network outages.

  • 24/7 alerting across every system in the data centre
  • CPU, memory, disk, and network performance tracked in real time
  • Rapid response to minimise downtime and disruption
  • Continuous vulnerability monitoring across software and OS
  • Threat assessment and mitigation

FAQS

Common questions about security & hosting

Where is my website hosted?

All websites we host are based in the UK, in a fully accredited data centre with 24/7 manned security, CCTV, intruder detection, and three-factor physical access control.

Will I be notified before any planned maintenance?

Yes. We notify your designated point of contact immediately if any planned change to our network could affect your applications. All maintenance is scheduled outside of office hours, and we work with you to agree on a time window that causes minimal disruption.

What hosting options do you offer?

We provide completely bespoke hosting solutions — from a single virtual server through to dedicated servers and highly available virtualised private cloud environments with dedicated hardware and networks. We'll recommend the right solution based on your traffic, requirements, and budget.

What security certifications do you hold?

We are Cyber Essentials certified and ISO 27001 certified — the internationally recognised standard for information security management. Together, these certifications confirm that our infrastructure, processes, and approach to protecting client data are independently audited and verified to meet the highest standards.
