Our server farm is highly redundant (daily data backup, redundant routers, clustered servers, power supply backup with a 9-day independent run time, air conditioning, etc.), which minimises the risk of equipment failure. The servers are tested every 5 minutes by Keynote-Red Alert, the worldwide leader in website monitoring. Since April 2001, the certified availability rating has been greater than 99.96%.
In addition, we pay the worldwide leader in website security testing (Security Metrics) to ‘attack’ our servers every 15 minutes to make sure they are updated and configured properly to stand up to any possible hacking attacks.
