Feeling safer in an age of viruses and hackers By Peter M. Abraham February 2004 Did you know that a week does not go by without at least one Web hosting provider being hacked into or scores of personal computers infected by a virus or worm (MyDoom infected well over 75,000 computers)? How should you feel about security as a Dynamic Net, Inc. customer?  Or maybe, we should ask, are you concerned about security as a Dynamic Net, Inc. customer? We've been blessed, and combined with our hard work can proudly say that over the past nine years the servers we directly own and operate have never been hacked*. Our security measures and know how have been endorsed by Positive Software, Inc., the author of Parallels H-Sphere (the control panel and automation software we use on our shared hosting servers). This endorsement has provided our team with continuous flow of security work over the past nine months as Parallels H-Sphere hosting provider after Parallels H-Sphere hosting provider have contracted with our company to secure their servers.  That's right- we have been securing the servers of other hosting companies for close to one year now. While I cannot go into the details of our security measures, please note our servers are highly monitored and most of the security is automated to the point that many attackers are stopped cold without any human intervention at all. What this means for you, as our hosting customer, is that you are better protected at Dynamic Net, Inc. than most other hosting providers on the market. At DNI, quality and security go hand in hand with providing personal support to our clients as our number one priority- we put the same time and effort to apply our expertise in server security and administration into the servers that host even our smallest clients as we do for hosting companies that rely on our services to keep their own customers safe. While we hope we are able to keep up our pristine track record in server security, we invest just as much time and money into our backup/disaster recovery plans to ensure that even if the unthinkable happens, it will be a blip on the radar instead of a tragic event. Please email our support department if you have any questions. Thank you
