At PayNetWorx, we understand the importance of safeguarding your business data. While on-premise data centers have served us well in the past, the landscape of security threats is constantly evolving. That’s why we’ve transitioned to a robust cloud infrastructure powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Here’s why this move ensures superior protection for your business:

1. Disaster Recovery Built-In: Imagine a natural disaster or power outage crippling your on-premise data center. With PayNetWorx’s cloud solution, downtime is a distant memory. AWS utilizes geographically separated Availability Zones across two continents. This means an incident in one zone won’t disrupt your operations. Your data processing seamlessly continues in another zone, ensuring business continuity.

2. Enhanced Security with Constant Updates: Keeping your on-premise data center’s security up-to-date requires constant vigilance and investment. But with AWS, you inherit their world-class security expertise. Their systems are continuously updated with the latest security patches and cutting-edge technology, eliminating the burden of managing these updates yourself. Furthermore, PayNetWorx utilizes multi-factor authentication with a physical key device for an extra layer of access control to our cloud systems.

3. Physical Security Matters: On-premise data centers concentrate your security risks in one location. A cloud solution distributes those risks. Cloud vendors like AWS invest heavily in physical security measures like fences, 24/7 security guards, constant security monitoring, biometric access controls, and a multitude of verification methodologies. This layered approach deters and prevents unauthorized access to your data.

4. Deep Expertise at Your Fingertips: Managing PCI, GDPR, and PSD2 compliance can be a complex undertaking. By leveraging the cloud, you gain access to a team of top-tier cybersecurity professionals employed by your cloud vendor. These experts stay current on the latest regulations and know to ensure your data and transactions remain secure.
