The system has been implemented on a LINUX platform in support of government’s open source strategy, and therefore
is not subject to the normal barricade of system attacks experienced by most other platforms
The system is firewalled and continuously scanned for intrusion from the outside world
The system checks for illegal access requests, and any access to the system is tracked and logged, for rollback and identification of usage activities
Every machine in its own right has built in redundancy at the hardware layer including such best practice considerations such as RAID 5, with hot-swappable drives, dual power supplies, etc.
The system is backed up daily offsite with a structured “fallback” and “rollback” plan for recovery. Special considerations have been made on system faults resolution to ensure that completed successful fax receptions are delivered to the appropriate destinations
The system is deployed in arguable one of the best sites in the country, with direct access into the core Tier 1 Internet works in South Africa, as well as direct assess into the International networks through multiple links into Europe and the USA
