Utilising the neutral facilities of Australia's largest carrier, Global Switch, Bloomtools customers are guaranteed the best environment for web hosting, security, and backup systems.

Hosting Environment and Security

Bloomtools security involves four key components, designed to deliver the highest level of security to our customers.

Datacentre Security

The building maintains a complicated system of fire detection and flame suppression equipment including smoke and heat detectors (which are present in all areas), as well as dry pipe sprinklers in technical areas, dry risers to all floors, and a sophisticated smoke and gas clearance system.
The building's power supply is maintained through a minimum N+1 redundancy, while the main power is supplied via two 33kV dedicated incomers, a diverse A&B power supply distributor at 11kV via a rotary UPS, and multiple ring main circuits
Onsite diesel power generator that can support the centre at full capacity for 24 hours. This is backed up by a two-hour, 24x7 fuel delivery contract

Network Access Security

Server access is limited to secure protocols.
Customer Backups are stored on separate servers on private (non routable on the Internet) subnet.
Dedicated firewall services to block unauthorised system access.

Data Redundancy

All databases and websites are replicated in real time on seperate servers on our private subnet (no access to the public), so if one server goes down, another can take over.
Raid-1 or Raid-5 hardware used on all servers.
All servers are backed up nightly to separate servers on our private network.

Operational Security

Managed and patrolled by building control staff 24x7.
Multiple closed circuit TV points.
Secure entries and exits, and limited access areas.
All passwords are securely encoded using the MD5 cryptographic algorithm which secures passwords so not even Bloomtools' employees know what your password is.

We provide our clients with the best hosting environment available, so you can have peace of mind knowing your website is in safe hands.
