Comprehensive Security Measures at Ovation Hall

At Ovation Hall, safeguarding our clients’ data and ensuring the security of their websites is our top priority. In today’s digital landscape, cyber threats are constantly evolving, and it is crucial to stay ahead with robust security measures. We are proud to implement a comprehensive suite of security solutions, including Imunify360 and weekly backups, to provide our clients with a secure and reliable hosting environment.
Firewall Protection
We utilize both Web Application Firewalls (WAF) and Network Firewalls to protect our infrastructure.
- Web Application Firewalls (WAF): Our WAF protects against common web attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and other OWASP top 10 threats.
- Network Firewalls: These filter incoming and outgoing traffic based on predefined security rules, blocking malicious traffic while allowing legitimate traffic through.
Imunify360 for Malware Scanning and Removal
To further enhance our security, we have installed Imunify360 on all our servers. This state-of-the-art security platform offers a multi-layered defense system, providing real-time protection and comprehensive malware scanning and removal.
- Real-Time Protection: Imunify360 continuously monitors for malware and other malicious activities, ensuring immediate detection and removal of threats.
- Automated Security Management: Imunify360 automates many security tasks, such as malware scanning and cleanup, allowing you to focus on your business while it handles the security.
DDoS Protection
Our DDoS protection services detect and mitigate distributed denial-of-service attacks, ensuring that your website remains operational even under heavy traffic from malicious sources.
- Traffic Filtering: We implement traffic filtering to block malicious traffic while allowing legitimate traffic through, safeguarding your online presence.
Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS)
We employ IDPS to monitor network traffic for suspicious activities and automatically block malicious IP addresses to prevent unauthorized access.
- Automated Responses: Our IDPS provides real-time monitoring and automated responses to mitigate threats promptly.
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Certificates
We ensure data integrity and confidentiality by using SSL/TLS certificates to encrypt data transmitted between the server and the client. We encourage all our clients to use HTTPS to secure their websites.
Regular Software Updates and Patching
Keeping software up-to-date is crucial for security. We regularly update all software, including the operating system, control panels, and applications, with the latest security patches.
- Automated Updates: Our automated update systems ensure the timely application of patches, reducing the risk of vulnerabilities.
Secure Authentication
We enforce strong password policies and implement two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security on login attempts.
- Strong Password Policies: Enforcing strong password policies helps prevent unauthorized access.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): 2FA provides an additional layer of security, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive information.
Weekly Backups
We perform automatic weekly backups of all accounts and websites every Saturday, free of charge. This ensures that your data is safe and can be easily restored in case of any issues.
- Easy Restoration: If you experience any issues with your website, you can request a restoration from our backups. Our support team is ready to assist you in getting your site back up and running quickly.
Backup Retention Policy
- Active Accounts: For active hosting accounts, we keep backups of your data for as long as your service is active.
- Expired Accounts: When hosting accounts expire, your files are kept on the server for an additional 30 days. During this period, you cannot access the files unless you renew your hosting service. If the service is not renewed within this timeframe, the account is terminated.
- Post-Termination: After account termination, your files may be retained on our backup server for an additional 15 days. To restore files during this period, there is a restoration fee of 150 Ghana Cedis, in addition to the hosting cost.
Access Control
We implement Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to limit access to critical systems and data based on user roles, following the least privilege principle.
Security Audits and Vulnerability Assessments
Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments help us identify and address potential security weaknesses. We also perform penetration testing to simulate attacks and evaluate our security posture.
Data Protection and Privacy
We comply with data protection regulations such as GDPR and ensure data encryption both at rest and in transit to protect sensitive information.
User Education and Awareness
We provide security awareness training to our staff and clients, educating them about phishing attacks and other cyber threats.
Incident Response Plan
Our incident response plan ensures that we are prepared to quickly respond to security incidents. We have a dedicated team to handle security breaches and coordinate the response.
Physical Security
Our data centers are equipped with physical security measures, including access controls, surveillance, and environmental controls to prevent unauthorized access and protect hardware.
Logging and Monitoring
We maintain detailed logs of all activities on our servers and network devices. Continuous monitoring of logs and network traffic helps us detect and respond to suspicious activities promptly.
