3FN Increases Intrusion Prevention

By David Hamilton, November 17, 2008

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Dedicated, shared and colocation hosting provider Triple Fiber Network has added a new intrusion prevention system integrated into all its web hosting services in order to provide the highest level of stability.

According to the company's announcement Saturday, 3FN has achieved the highest level of web hosting security and stability, and the new system also promises to increase the general performance of its web hosting services.

"We have powered our web hosting with sophisticated intrusion prevention system providing our valuable customers with unexampled stability of all web hosting services," 3FN spokesperson Dean McToner said in a statement. "Our company has achieved such unprecedented security level of web hosting due to enhanced intrusion prevention system that is now implemented to all web hosting services by 3FN."

San Jose-based 3FN placed in the top five most reliable websites in Netcraft's (www.netcraft.com) February survey.

It is also the latest web hosting provider to announce an intrusion prevention enhancement.

In late October, India-based telecommunications giant Tata Communications (www.tatacommunications.com) partnered with unified threat management solutions provider Fortinet (www.fortinet.com) to launch its virtualized unified threat management solution to Indian customers, offering them firewall, intrusion detection and prevention, anti-virus, anti-spam, and web content filtering as part of its Managed Security Services portfolio.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
