eNlight Cloud stores data on enterprise storages having multiple security layers. These security layers are further strengthened by the best practices followed to store eNlight data, including Isolation of storage from public network and thick provisioning of storage to negate sharing. eNlight is based on hardware virtualization technology isolating cloud servers at the hypervisor layer for additional data security. This explicit virtualization of the physical resources leads to a clear separation between guest and hypervisor, resulting in additional secure separation between the two. Customer instances have no access to raw disk devices, but instead are presented with virtualized disks. The eNlight Virtualization layer automatically resets the chunk of storage used by a customer, thus preventing exposure of one's data to the other.
Inside eNlight' secure environment, the isolation layer replicates cloud resources (processors, memory, storage, etc.) to match the execution requirements of the original server. Using this approach, servers and applications run on eNlight cloud "as is" without requiring modification or redesign, and without any disruption. eNlight's tightly integrated modules easily expand to ensure server, application, and data security across physical, virtual, and cloud servers, as well as virtual desktops. eNlight Cloud offers a comprehensive, centrally managed platform to help you simplify security operations.
ESDS employees are prohibited from viewing the content of the files you store in your eNlight account, and can only view file’s metadata (file names and locations). Storage Servers are Isolated from the Public Network, and safely nestled into a Private Network, thus eliminating all the threats & attacks that the Internet poses. Traffic to and from eNlight Cloud stays within the corporate firewall without crossing the Internet. Our regulated routing policies also specify the users that are actually allowed to reach the Cloud resources.
eNlight Cloud deploys Network virtualization techniques that separate different networks on the same hardware and therefore, partition resources accordingly. This ensures excellent isolation along with regulated network resource sharing within different users. Network Isolation boasts of multiple advantages: viruses and worms cannot propagate into eNlight Cloud's isolated network, malicious users and external softwares are unable to attack eNlight servers as they lack the authentication credentials required to establish communication within eNlight's Isolated Network.
Every customer is kept in a VLAN with L3 Switch in the backend. This reduces trivial network vulnerabilities and provides significant protection against traditional network security issues such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks, Man in the Middle (MITM) Attacks, IP Spoofing, Port Scanning and Packet sniffing by other tenants. Security is provided on multiple levels: the operating system (OS) of the host, the virtual instance OS or guest OS and firewall. Some of the features of eNlight' Network Security are
