SECURITY AND RELIABILITY
X-Road infrastructure you can rely on.
securityserver.io provides isolated, managed X-Road security server environments. Here you will find an overview of our infrastructure, security measures and the responsibilities of each party.
Infrastructure
- Each customer has a separate security server.
- Each security server has a separate PostgreSQL database.
- We use the official X-Road security server software from NIIS.
- Hosting: European Union.
Backup and restore
- The configuration is backed up every 6 hours and after every key change.
- The database is backed up continuously. A full copy is also made every night.
- Backups are stored with two different providers.
- Backups are signed. The storage is encrypted.
- Restoring from the dashboard takes about 6 minutes.
Monitoring and maintenance
- We monitor the operation of the security server.
- We send a certificate expiry notification 60, 30 and 7 days before.
- We test each new version first. You start the update when it suits you.
