BFrame Announces Cloud Infrastructure Partnership

BFrame today announced its partnership with QTS to supply a processing environment for government entities. QTS’ Federal Cloud is designed to meet FedRAMP and FISMA requirements. This Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a physically-isolated cloud and housed in one of the world’s largest and most secure data centers BFrame will leverage QTS’ best-of-breed technologies and networking for better performance and security. Combining BFrame’s web-based application with QTS IaaS enables BFrame federal customers to leverage cloud computing for their recovery operations while meeting or exceeding compliance requirements.

“An increasingly sophisticated hacking community and heightened public awareness of data security risks has led to more comprehensive security and privacy requirements on firms collecting on student loans. With our relationship with QTS we can assure our customers that their underlying cloud infrastructure meets or exceeds these requirements,” said BFrame CEO Eric Bentz. “Our goal is always to keep our customers both effective and fully compliant and the QTS partnership is evidence of that.”

The QTS Richmond data center is designed to meet federal requirements. This fault tolerant site features two on-site substations delivering 110MVA, redundant power and cooling and on-site fuel storage. The site is configured with access to a broad range of global and national providers of local, fiber and internet connectivity. Regional fiber connectivity provides fully protected diverse routes to Culpeper and Northern Virginia. The facility itself is secured with K-12 delta vehicle barriers and fencing, 24×7 visitor screening, extensive security monitoring and card access, biometric fingerprint and iris can identification systems.
