Application security protection

An essential part of keeping your digital application up and running securely is to ensure that strong active security protection is in place and that all the dependent frameworks are regularly updated.
Application Security Protection service

Active security protection

With over 25 years' experience hosting and supporting secure online applications we understand what is needed to keep your application secure and available.

Our clustered perimeter firewalls provide the first line of defence which includes real-time Intrusion Protection against spyware, SQL injections, cross-site scripting and other common threats.

We are a Cloudflare partner and implement their Security & Performance for Applications service to help mitigate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks along with providing additional resilience and application delivery optimisation.

The service is designed to ensure that your digital application is monitored, the host operating system is patched and all dependant frameworks are kept up to date on a regular basis.

We aim to provide maximum online availability for the applications which we host and manage, whilst keeping your data fully secure. As an ISO27001 and Cyber Essentials accredited Company, your digital application and data are in safe hands.
