Are you looking for £1000 funding to secure your server solution?

Through BASEfund, UKFast will effectively subsidise your hosting to ensure that you have a fully secure and effective solution.

As the name suggests, it is a fund designed to Build to A Safer Environment online by enabling businesses to afford key support measures for their hosting solutions.

Why is UKFast offering £1000 funding?

We understand that not every organisation can afford the top quality firewalls, hardware and support to lock down their online business. However it is important that every business does this because of data security laws and the implication of loss of information.

So at a time when our rivals are cutting back on their services to save money, why is UKFast offering generous subsidies? The answer is because we recognise that the internet is a safer place for everyone when more companies have the right security solutions. BASEfund is designed to ensure that all of our clients have the best security in place for their hosting package.

What is covered by the funding?

Imagine having a wish list of industry leading anti-virus, backup systems, safety protocols and 24-hour monitoring but not being able to afford such luxuries. As a dedicated or managed server client you can apply for BASEfund to gain some of these systems at no extra cost.

Fully secure and effective hosting

With BASEfund we offer a full range of in-depth auditing and security tools saving you a massive £1000.

All you have to do is choose the right hosting solution for your business' needs.

£1000 funding includes:

• CTmonitoring

Optimum server performance is crucial for the success of your online business. CTmonitoring (Capacity Threshold Monitoring) allows you to track every aspect of your dedicated server from bandwidth consumption to disk utilisation, all from one easy-to-use interface. With customisable SMS and email notifications, the system notifies both you and the UKFast technical support team immediately should a pre-defined threshold be reached.

With this tracking system you can avoid hampering your solution by staying on top of your performance settings. Without it your website may perform poorly due to inadequate bandwidth capacities, leaving customers frustrated and your Google rankings plummeting.

• 100G Backup Provision

Enjoy up to 100GB of backup capacity using software developed in house by our team of experts. It can easily handle multi-volume backups, is easy and quick to implement and offers excellent scalability.

Any hosting solution needs effective back-up provision as the loss of data from a server failure could be devastating. What is more, establishing sufficient back up capacity with comprehensive dynamic support is also vitally important to guarantee performance continuity.

• McAfee Server Protection

With McAfee Server Protection your server solution is protected against the most harmful viral strains, leaving you to concentrate on your business.

Succumbing to a viral attack can bring your business to a grinding halt and lead to expensive eradication costs. Prevention is crucial to maintain a healthy, effective hosting solution.

• Security Audit Scans

Our comprehensive security audits review the robustness of your entire hosting solution. They draw upon the expertise of our level 3 technicians who provide full consultation services with every analysis.

Our Security Audit minimises the risk of downtime and prevents unauthorised access.

Did you also know, if you are not PCI compliant you should not handle credit card details. This audit can be used to assist your business in achieving PCI Compliance; giving you the vital knowledge you need to get your online business up and running.
