Protecting the Government's Investment 

The Government's hard work, extensive planning, hosting operations and even entire 

businesses can be destroyed in a blink of an eye unless the Government takes steps to 

protect it. AT&T Enterprise Hosting Services maintains a comprehensive security 

infrastructure to help prevent unwanted attacks or intrusion on the network, the server 

infrastructure, and the hosting facility. AT&T Internet Data Centers are located 

within hardened facilities, protected by multiple security measures including multi 

layered identification protocols such as palm biometrics, electronic key cards, and 

photo IDs.  

In addition, AT&T provides a complete range of fully managed security services as 

well as Server Load Balancing and other enhanced redundancy services. 

6.7.5  Managed Security Services 

Security is one of the most important components of any quality hosting platform. 

Our Managed Security Services provides industry leading security that the 

Government can count on. AT&T has security solutions that can accommodate 

virtually any requirement. Does the Government need a simple firewall or does the 

Government need a high performance redundant High Availability (HA) firewall 

configuration with load balancing, Intrusion Detection and VPN Service? AT&T has 

the solution for the Government.
