upstreamNet achieves an A rating in the NIS2 Readiness Check

upstreamNet offers security at the highest level and achieved an A rating in the NIS2 Readiness Check by the certifier condignum GmbH. This underlines our commitment to reliable protection and compliance. 

Guaranteed high availability

Internationally redundant connections from a single source

In the modern age, availability is a key factor in the success or failure of companies. According to studies in the United States, 90% of companies do not recover economically if they do not have their "usual" access to the Internet for more than two days.

Redundant connections from Vienna to Frankfurt and Vienna to Paris ensure that customers in Austria do not have to fear any service disruptions even in the event of a connection failure. upstreamNet guarantees full redundancy for the IP bandwidth consumed by customers.

Future-proof technologies

In a networked world, it is crucial to stay technologically up to date. With upstreamNet, you benefit from a global network based on secure protocols and stable technologies.

BGP protocol (Border Gateway Protocol)

This protocol ensures that data packets on the Internet take the optimal route to reach their destination quickly and reliably. At upstreamNet, it is used to route dynamically and efficiently between networks so that your data traffic remains stable and secure at all times.

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)

TCP/IP is the basis for all Internet traffic. It ensures that data is transmitted correctly and arrives safely at its destination by standardizing communication between networks. With upstreamNet, TCP/IP ensures smooth and reliable data transmission in your network.

AS8218 and AS6461

These autonomous systems (AS) form the core of upstreamNet's global connectivity. AS8218 provides high-availability connectivity for enterprises, while AS6461 provides international reach and access to worldwide networks.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions & answers

With colocation, customers have physical control over their servers and place them in a data center, while cloud hosting customers use virtual resources.

upstreamNet offers you the flexibility of a small team with high availability and security in the AS8218 and AS6461 network. If required, we can support you with IT services and the expertise of our partners. Our Vienna data centers are geo-redundantly connected to the Internet nodes (VIX1, VIX2 and VIX3) to ensure maximum security and availability. Direct dark fiber connections between RDC and ODC21 also enable our customers to operate their equipment in a location-redundant manner for clustering or backups via fiber optics. We are an Austrian company and can make quick decisions in an international environment.

With many years of experience, compliance with the highest security standards and flexible solutions, upstreamNet is a reliable partner for first-class colocation and the best IP connectivity. In our data centers - as of 2024/2025 - there are no ongoing costs for patching to and from provider rooms.

upstreamNet offers colocation, IP connectivity as well as scalable managed services and consulting services.

Our Network Operations Center (NOC) is available around the clock and communicates directly with our backbone engineers in AS8218 & AS6461. Our monitoring service for IP runs 24×7, as does the hands-on service on site at the Raiffeisen Datacenter (RDC). The On Demand Center (ODC21) is staffed around the clock and guarantees access to the system rooms.

Redundant Juniper routers at the data center locations and Internet nodes are directly connected to each other via geo-redundant lines (backbone). In addition to the peerings at VIX, our AS8218 is connected to the international networks of other providers via different provider and route lines in Paris and Frankfurt. The availability of free gigabit capacities ensures a stable connection and sufficient bandwidth capacity even if line providers fail.

Data security and data protection are guaranteed by bank-certified security protocols and compliance with the GDPR. upstreamNet voluntarily submits to the ISPA Code of Conduct, compliance with which is validated annually. In addition, upstreamNet is subject to the NIS2 guidelines and passed the NIS2 compliance audit in January 2025 with an A rating. You can download the NIS2 report here >>

upstreamNet offers individual SLAs with guaranteed availability and fast response times for support requests. 

The costs depend on the specific customer requirements and are calculated individually.

The data center is bank-certified, which guarantees compliance with the highest security and quality standards.
