IKANO OLYMPIC OPERATIONS/SECURITY

Security Precautions

The Olympic Winter Games of 2002 will draw a TV audience of billions from around the world, making it one of the most visible sporting events on earth. For many people, this will be an opportunity to see the performances of some of the greatest athletes that the world has to offer.

For others, this will be an opportunity to interrupt the operations of critical computer systems.

IKANO has installed several network security systems and has a well-developed network security plan in place. While this will require a high level of continuous diligence and expertise, the IKANO engineering team has extensive experience building, managing and securing extremely complex networks. Afterall, IKANO currently supports its own nationwide network making both IKANO and SLOC confident that the Olympic network will remain secure for the duration of the Games.

Emergency Response Plan

IKANO's data network has an extremely low likelihood of crashing, but in the rare instance that a problem occurs, IKANO engineers are prepared to combat the problem in record time.

While the data network is operational both before and during the Olympic Winter Games, systems must be in place to ensure that the network stays operational. If a failure should occur, IKANO engineers must isolate and solve the problem as quickly as possible.

While the primary network may fail-over to a backup network in a matter of seconds, the original problem must typically be corrected in a matter of minutes. To ensure that this happens, approximately 12 network management stations will be strategically placed throughout the network using a variety of utilities and several custom-built applications and databases written by IKANO engineers.
