Blocking Malicious Access Attempts

Our free and automated IPMI/KVM firewall service blocks malicious server access attempts. With over 10,000 malicious access attempts blocked per hour, the reasoning for deploying our automated firewall is clear. Customers can view full details of access attempts including IP, country, city, and targeted server via our customer portal. The map below will refresh every 10 minutes and displays malicious access attempts that were blocked within the past 10 minutes.

Nationwide Private Network

Our private network interconnects all of our data centers in Dallas, NYC, and Seatle. The private network can also be extended via dark fiber, wavelengths, or Internet Exchanges into private offices, and third-party data centers. Your servers at Incero can be on a private network with your servers in your office, your servers in a third-party data center, or even a third-party cloud service via an IX or fiber cross-connect. Our private network is offered on a dedicated unmetered basis, whereby no bandwidth charges apply even between our data centers in different cities.

Open Peering

Incero believes strongly in participating in an open Internet, if you can reach our ports or an Internet Exchange where we participate we will peer with you at no cost (settlement free peering). We peer openly on Internet Exchanges at 10gbps or higher, and always participates in Route Servers/MLPE on all Internet Exchanges that we join. We also offer direct ports in our various facilities for high traffic networks that can not reach us on an Internet Exchange. The easiest way to peer with us is to join the Route Servers/MLPE on an exchange that we are connected to.
