Simply building a fence between your environment and malicious activity isn’t a guarantee of safety. True security leverages proven methodologies for safeguarding an environment (and the physical facilities that host it) from the ground up and constantly updating those measures as the threat landscape changes.

SoftLayer has a multi-level approach for shielding customers against physical and electronic threats, with comprehensive practices and a range of options for Physical and Operational, Network, System, Application and Data Security. SoftLayer Managed Hosting assesses your needs and collaborates with you to create the optimal security strategy for locking down your environment while providing flexibility for peak performance.

Our security procedures utilize industry best practices from sources including The Center for Internet Security (CIS), Microsoft, and Red Hat and more. All SoftLayer data center facilities are SSAE16 certified.
