First line of defence. The Firewall block.
July 10, 2014Detecting attempted access via repeated password attempts is easy. So should be the next step.
Collating the IP addresses of offenders from each of our hosted sites, Digital Tsunami adds these to the firewall blacklist of our private clouds, to prevent future access by that IP to ANY of our hosted sites.
While we recognise that hackers and their bots dynamically use a vast number of IPs, and that there is an immense number available, we also feel committed to maximising security and removing the opportunity for an attacking IP to be re-used.
Digital Tsunami has been hosting websites in robust data centres across the globe since 1996. We are aware of the security risks and the duty of care which is our responsibility.

Our client sites are hosted on either one of Digital Tsunami’s private clouds or, (as is the case of some of our Australian listed company clients), on their own exclusive private cloud.
No clients on our private clouds were affected by the recently detected Heartbleed vulnerability.

From Our Clients
I would like to thank you for your tremendous contribution to Foodbank over the years.
The organisation certainly wouldn’t be where we are today without your support!
Thank you for all your efforts in creating our new website which achieves our agreed objectives : elegantly smart, yet understated, professional and easy to use.
.. a reliable and steadfast operator, with a keen sense of service. Innovative and contemporary, and operating within the upper echelon.
(We) took a fairly substantial audit of .. sophisticated sites both technically and creatively .. Out of six prominent designers, Digital Tsunami stood out.
The quality of the images, the sophisticated management of text .. together with smooth animations makes (our) website of very high calibre.
I would personally rate this site in the top 2 percent of world wide web sites today.
Foodbank has experienced unprecedented growth .. there is no doubt that the new Foodbank website, designed, built and maintained pro bono by Digital Tsunami, has been the principle tool in lifting Foodbank's profile. It is because our website is so engaging, that we have captured these donations. Foodbank just wouldn't be where we are today without Digital Tsunami.
