New for 2009: SAS 70 Type II |
Our new SAS 70 type II network is currently undergoing configuration and testing, and will come online
in January 2009. Located at our partner Terremark's purpose-built data center in Miami, this new network consists of an
advanced configuration of multiple load-balanced web servers and database servers connected to a
high-availability storage area network behind dual firewalls, ensuring high availability and automatic failover.
This new facility offers excellent flexibility and will become our primary operating site,
both for our existing clients and for all new clients.
|
| A true SaaS Model |
We host EuroNetting as a SaaS service for all EuroNetting clients, including
all clients of our banking partners who offer EuroNetting under their own white-label banner.
Security, real-time database backups, disaster recovery and software updates are
all managed by EuroNetting. Your users need only a web browser to access EuroNetting at
anytime from anywhere in the world.
EuroNetting has been operating from two highly-secure load-balanced networks located at twin
Data Centers in San Jose, California, and Chicago, Illinois since 2003
with an excellent record: proven to be highly stable, with excellent system response times
and a performance and availability record that exceeds the high SLA's guaranteed in our license.
The new Miami data center with an even more advanced configuration will continue to deliver the
same excellent service levels with the added advanteges of using completely up-to-date
equipment that can be actively reconfigured and extended infinitely with no down time.

| Platform |
|
EuroNetting has always depended on Microsoft tools for the development and deployment of our netting systems.
Our online platform is delivered by IIS running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise servers with
SQL Server 2005 handling all databases. We have a mixture of Netscreen and Cisco firewalls.
|
| Rapid Deployment and Updates |
|
Because the EuroNetting application is running constantly on our networks with ample storage
and performance capacity, new clients gain access to their netting
service virtually instantly, ready for configuration and training. Custom modules, interfaces
and reporting integrate seamlessly into individual client configurations without impacting
any other clients.
|
| Guaranteed system availability, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week |
|
From experience we know that our clients' users around the world need to access EuroNetting
virtually 7 days a week, with just a brief slowdown between mid-Saturday and late Sunday
(U.S. time) before your users in Australasis come back online. So it's important that the
networks are monitored not just 5 days a week, but 24*7. That's where the advantages of a
true SaaS solution come in, with professionals monitoring your service and database,
the hosting hardware, and its Internet connectivity around the clock, not just in daylight hours.
|
| Security |
Designed from the outset to operate over the Internet, EuroNetting incorporates industry-standard
hardware and software security mechanisms and features to ensure access to your data remains secure
at all times. We run antivirus and IDS (Intrusion Detection) on our firewalls, and all user interactions
with the netting service take place over a secure web browser interface using SSL. User logon requires
triple-element identification without the need for cumbersome token administration, with automatic user
and source IP locking in the event of multiple logon failure.
Our databases have always been backed up in real time to secondary hardware to ensure there is never any loss
of data, and now with our new clustered database server configuration coming online, automatic database failover
is guaranteed without users even being aware of the event. In addition to SAN-based storage of recent backups,
we retain a complete history of full backups of your data in a secure fireproof location.
Your users are granted functional and entity-based access privileges to your netting system using a
classic role-based structure; the composition of user roles and their assignment to your users are
completely under your control and can be finely tailored to meet your specific requirements.
