FTP HOSTING - HIPAA Statement

CyberLynk provides multiple safeguards to our HIPAA sensitive customers including:

• Servers are all located in highly secure data centers, thereby making it impossible for equipment (such as a hard drive containing medical data) to be stolen.
• Servers do not accept Anonymous-FTP connections, the most common hacker method of seeking out an FTP site for possible attack.
• FTP username and password is required.
• CyberLynk offers the use of 128-bit transfer encryption.
• CyberLynk proactively monitors and reacts to intrusion attempts into our systems through the use of a sophisticated Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and multiple operating system level security tools.
• No copies of your files reside on any offsite or long-term storage media.  We only backup your data nightly for disaster recovery purposes.  No tapes are used and this data never leaves the building.  In addition, backups are overwritten the next day.
