New Winnipeg's network security is a serious
operation, and we take the same pride in our security concerns
for your servers. SafeGuard is an extensive security program
that ensures total and complete protection for you and your
customers. Not only will SafeGuard give you the piece of mind
you need when dealing with the online world, but it will also
allow you to concentrate on growing your business through
sales and marketing; knowing that all your data is being watched
and monitored 24 hours a day.
SafeGuard is comprised of 3 main programs.
All run separately of each other, but work together to give
you the highest level of security, monitoring, and updates
that you have come to expect when running your business.
Proactive PortStarter
Your server talks to the outside world
via ports. These ports are the only way in and out of your
server, so they are an extremely integral part of your online
presence. SafeGuard monitors these ports, checking to make
sure they are available to you, your end-users, and any legitimate
outside consumer. This port monitoring is constant.
If any port is closed, the Proactive
PortStarter follows an algorithm to decide exactly why
the port is closed. It automatically takes proactive
steps to stabilize the box and reset the ports.
The algorithm is so smart that it knows
when it is in over its head and when to send the diagnosis
to a support person to intervene. ProActive PortStarter
can monitor any ports that you need monitored. The ports
listed on the right are on by default as they are crucial
to your day to day operations and are monitored closely.

Server Stabilizer
This application will monitor all processes
running on your server and react accordingly, so as to keep
your server running efficiently and securely. It will find
runaway processes, which could potentially lock up
your server, and kill those processes. It will monitor CPU
time, hack attempts are located and killed, it will find scripts
that may be harmful to your server's operations, and is also
able to reboot the server if necessary.
SafeGuard also includes anti-spam tools that
help alleviate the hassles of fighting these unwanted emails.
SafeGuard will scan and locate known spamware that may be
running on your system, it will find CGI scripts that contribute
to the spam dilemma, and can even find spamming tools embedded
in html!
Free Server Updates
Nothing keeps your server more stable and
secure than keeping the software and Operating System up to
date. In the SafeGuard program, New Winnipeg works diligently
to assess the stability of new software releases and security
patches.
After being fully tested and qualified, new
software releases and patches are installed on any server
in the SafeGuard program. SafeGuard
is set by default to automatically update the following:
· Apache (Secure and regular)
· MySql
· Perl
· PHP
· Sendmail
· FTP
· Linux RedHat Operating System
· Linux RedHat Kernel
· SSH
· FrontPage Extensions
These updates are vital to the survival of
your business and your end-user’s businesses as well.
Keeping up with the rapidly changing technology that drives
this sector can be made easier with SafeGuard.
