 If this is your idea of computer security, we have to talk.

Physical Security: Our servers are located in a secured, hardened, environmentally controlled computing environment. Including alternate power, intrusion alarms and environmental monitoring. Data Security: Our data servers all have error correcting memory; redundant power supplies fans, and high-speed RAID 5 mass storage. This will guarantee no interruption in use or loss of data should a hard drive fail. The system also performs complete alternate media backups on a daily basis. For this, we employ state of the art digital 8-track drives also in a redundant configuration to eliminate possible data loss due to component failure. Access, link, and storage security are provided on the firewall-protected servers. Data is passed between your computer and our servers in full link encryption. Data files are stored in protected, partitioned file space accessible only by the user. Data Archive Technology:
Spatially Distributed ECC OK, this one sounds even more complicated. But again it's really quite simple. ECC stands for 'Error Correction Code' and it's the way all tape drives minimize the loss of data on a tape. It's a technique for 'sprinkling' the data, with high mathematical accuracy, onto the tape. The Problem Over time, all magnetic and optical media, whether recorded by tape or disk drives, lose small amounts of data due to weak bits that cannot be reliably read later on. The Traditional Solution Most drives use Error Correction Code (ECC) which is a technique for sprinkling bits along the data track to permit reconstruction of original data when occasional bits are missing. The resulting reconstituted data provides significantly improved data reliability. Our Solution In contrast to single channel heads, our disc drives have eight-channel heads that record data 8 tracks at a time. When applying ECC, our drives sprinkle the bits over all eight tracks. The result is an exceptionally robust ECC that is so strong it is possible to scratch off an entire track and not lose any data. This is called spatially distributed ECC and it enables our drives to deliver bit error rates lower than 1 unrecoverable bit in 1019th bits written. This is 10,000 times better than your primary data storage device, the hard disk drive, and 100 times better than the most expensive tape drive competitors. Data Transmission Technology: Secure 128-bit, RC-5 encryption is applied to all of the data transferred between the client and the Data Center including: Keystrokes, Mouse data, Graphic information, Client drive data, Client printer data, and Client audio data.
