Data Center

Security

In a time where data breaches occur across corporations of all sizes, both in-house and outside counsel are increasingly looking to partner with service providers that maintain the highest levels of cybersecurity standards.

Connect Discovery delivers high performance, flexibility, and reliability that is unmatched by competitors in the eDiscovery industry. Our data center utilizes powerful SQL servers, coupled with dual ultra-high bandwidth fiber backbone connections within our data center (with automatic failover protection) that translates to high performance to the end user. The data servers, IIS servers, SQL servers, and associated hardware are fully backed up 24×7, with 3 day battery and diesel generator backup.

Our data center has the “ISO 27001” security certification – an independently evaluated security certification which is regarded as the highest level technology and security standard for banks, hospitals, law firms and other types of corporations. Some of the requirements to maintain ISO 270001 certification are as follows:

  • Leadership: Top management must demonstrate leadership and commitment to mandate information security policy, and assign information security roles and responsibilities as required.
  • Planning: The corporation must outline the process to identify, analyze and plan to treat information risks, and clarify the objectives of their information security policy to employees.
  • Support: There must be adequate, competent resources assigned to maintain the information security guidelines, awareness of pending security risks must be raised, and documentation must be prepared and disseminated regarding the corporation’s security procedures.
  • Performance Evaluation: The information within the corporation must be monitored, measured, analyzed, evaluated, audited, and reviewed continuously.
  • Improvement: The corporation must address the findings of evaluations, audits and reviews in order to make continual refinements to the organization’s security policies.

Speed

All client data is replicated and saved in real time across multiple data centers in order to maintain the integrity of client work product up to the second. As our data centers are geographically distributed and replicated in real time, our automated technology is able to bring back client data within seconds of unavailability regardless of the circumstance. Our data centers are hosted on two redundant 100Mb/sec lines connected to different points of presence on the Sprint backbone.
