Vulnerability ScanningVulnerability Scanning
REDPLAID provides vulnerability scans & assessments against services running on our customers' servers to test them against our proprietary vulnerability database containing more than 70,000 vulnerabilities that are continually updated. This powerful vulnerability assessment searches across servers and infrastructure devices to perform distributed or event-driven probes of network services, operating systems, servers, firewalls, and application components to identify potential risks. Customers are provided the results of the vulnerability scans and can repair these vulnerabilities on your own or have REDPLAID's Security Team correct them. |
24/7 Server Monitoring24/7 Server Monitoring
REDPLAID monitors the health and capacity of our customer's servers 24/7, with automated alerts sent to REDPLAID's staff when there are issues. |

Every REDPLAID server comes standard with 10 Mbps network uplink, which can be upgraded to 100 Mbps or 1,000 Mbps (Gigabit) network connection. |
Penetration TestingPenetration Testing
Penetration testing is a live test of the security defenses of your server performed by REDPLAID's Security Team. Our CISSP certified security engineers use techniques and exploits that real-life hackers use to simulate the results of an attack. This helps determine the appropriate level of network security and controls required to correct any identified vulnerabilities. This testing is often required for industry compliance with standards such as CISP (MasterCard & Visa certification), FDIC certification, HIPAA compliance, Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) compliance and others. |
24/7 Advanced Customer Portal24/7 Advanced Customer Portal

Full Remote ConsoleFull Remote Console
While REDPLAID provides a broad mix of Managed Services, most of our customers prefer to do some or all of their server administration themselves. With the REDPLAID Remote Console, your PC becomes "The Console" to the server from whatever location you securely login from - no different than sitting right in front of the server. You'll get full Root or Admin access, you'll see all BIOS and console messages, you'll have the full Linux console GUI, you can remotely reboot the server, power it on or off, and your local CD-ROM drive even becomes the CD-ROM on the server to install software from. |
Content MonitoringContent Monitoring
REDPLAID's Tripwire™ Server Integrity Monitoring uses a sophisticated database to monitor the integrity and file attributes of important files on each server. REDPLAID's Security Team sets specific alarm criteria for unauthorized server changes and malicious user activity, and our Tripwire software establishes a "digital inventory" of known good files and their attributes - using them as a baseline to monitoring changes. When changes are identified, REDPLAID's Security Team and customer support staff are notified electronically. If the change is desirable, such as with a scheduled software patch for example, Tripwire makes it easy to verify these changes and roll them into the baseline for future monitoring. If the change is not desired, Tripwire software enables rapid restoration of files to a known good state. Controls can also be put in place to not only identify changes but to automatically restore systems when undesired changes occur. |
