Security Best Practices

Domain name (website address) security

When we secure domain names on your behalf, we set it up to renew automatically on our account each year. This practice keeps domains that you wish to control under a virtual lock and key. No one can take your domain names away from you as long as we manage them for you.

Website security

We use backed-up, secure databases to store your website content. We use secure file hosting to store the images, pages, and scripts that make up your website. Special systems are in place to protect dedicated and virtual dedicated hosting servers at no additional cost. An intrusion prevention system scans traffic and, based on rules, determines whether data packets are legitimate or malicious. Each hosting plan includes physical security and network monitoring.

Email security

Email accounts using your domain name (website address) are included free with any hosting account we provide. Our email accounts are fast, ultra-reliable, and protected from fraud, spam and viruses. You have POP3 access or web-based access. Accounts are advertising-free. Send and receive email using popular email clients and mobile devices like Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, your Blackberry and more.
