NextLevel Internet Offers SAS 70 Type II Compliant Data Center in North San Diego

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- NextLevel Internet, Inc., a leader in mission critical Internet access, today announced that the company has opened access to a new, secure, SAS 70 Type II compliant data center in Rancho Bernardo, CA. The expansion to the new World Trade Drive Data Center follows the relocation of NextLevel Internet's headquarters to North County San Diego in September 2010. NextLevel Internet provides business-to-business co-location, Internet, hosted voice, and managed data services for organizations of all size.

The Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) 70 is an internationally recognized auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).  SAS 70 Type II compliance certifies that NextLevel Internet's data center has adequate controls and safeguards in place when hosting and processing data for the company's clients.

"Our new data center was designed to allow our customers to place their servers and data in a secure co-location with redundant generators, redundant power and a very large amount of multi-homed bandwidth," said Jerry Morris, founder of NextLevel Internet. "We provide services to companies whose loss of Internet connection will result in the loss of life, money, or reputation.  By operating out of a data center that is SAS 70 Type II certified, we ensure that our data center upholds the stringent standards for controls and safeguards that our compliance regulated customers require."

The new facility delivers greater power density, advanced cooling technology and increased scalability versus previous data centers. The 88,000 square foot data center is built with an environmentally friendly air filtration system that can use external air to cool the facility when air quality matches certain optimal humidity and temperature parameters.

Upon opening, NextLevel Internet had moved approximately 60 clients to the new physically secure site that features biometric scanning, video surveillance, appropriate seismic controls and very early smoke detection apparatus (VESDA).

"NextLevel Internet's new data center in Rancho Bernardo has exceeded our expectations regarding security, power density, scalability and bandwidth options," said Sean Andrew, Director of Technology Services for MILLS Solutions, an MSP Division of MILLS Communications. "With our expedited time frame to install, things went very smoothly and we found everyone on the NextLevel Internet team to be friendly and more than accommodating in meeting our time sensitive installation needs."
