Infrastructure and Operations
The infrastructure forms the foundation of security in Ciso and is designed to be robust, redundant, and protected against both physical and digital threats.
Data centers and geographic distribution
Elastx operates three data centers in the Stockholm region. These are geographically separated but located relatively close to each other (up to approximately 20 km), enabling both low latency and protection against local disruptions.
This means:
- Three separate data centers in Sweden
- Geographic separation for increased resilience
- Low latency between data centers
- Support for distributed operation across multiple zones
Physical security
The data centers meet high standards for physical security and protection of equipment and data.
Security measures include:
- 24/7 monitoring and staffing
- CCTV surveillance
- ID checks and controlled physical access
- Logging of all access
- Physical barriers and security zones
- Fire protection with early smoke detection
Redundancy and availability
The infrastructure is designed to minimize downtime and ensure continuous operation.
This includes:
- Redundant power (UPS and backup generators)
- Redundant network connections via multiple providers
- Redundant cooling systems
- Multiple independent internet uplinks
- Redundant storage
Network security
The platform includes multiple layers of network protection.
This includes:
- Firewalls and network segmentation
- Intrusion detection systems (IDS)
- DDoS protection
- Blocking of malicious traffic patterns
- Encrypted communication between data centers
Monitoring and operations
Elastx continuously monitors its infrastructure to ensure stable operation.
This includes:
- 24/7 monitoring of infrastructure and hardware
- Automated alerts on anomalies
- Continuous system health checks
- Availability of operations personnel
Data storage
Storage systems are designed for durability and availability.
This includes:
- Redundant storage across multiple zones
- Multiple data copies
- Backup to separate storage systems
- Protection against data loss
Summary
Elastx provides a secure and resilient infrastructure foundation for Ciso.
This means that:
- Operations take place in ISO 27001-certified data centers in Sweden
- Infrastructure is distributed across multiple locations
- Physical security is strictly controlled
- Systems are fully redundant
- Network protection is in place
- Data is stored redundantly and protected against loss
