IT Department - About Our Servers • Server computers provide the security of the network. • Domain controllers provide users with a login name and a hidden password. Only the user knows their password. • After a user logs into the system they are given electronic keys we call CIDS. These “keys” will “open” only folders that the user has been granted rights to use. This includes email. • Our servers are IBM rack mounted systems that operate using Windows 2003 Server. • All departments have a folder on this server. Each Departments folder contains the information produced by each member of the department. Each department folder is private and only accessed by the members of that department. • This Windows 2003 Server software is C2 Certified, this means that the NSA recognizes it as secure enough to protect important data. • The servers allow us to maintain a database that lists the devices and users who are authorized to use network resources. • Servers also secure and hold mission critical applications such as ACC PAC, LASERFICHE and PROGENY. • Like all computer equipment servers have a useful life of about 3 to 5 years. • Server replacement needs to be a planned process to avoid performance issues. • Servers are mission critical systems that can cause organization wide work disruption if not properly maintained.    Go Back To IT Department Department of Information Technology Location I.T.
