About Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises is an Internet information resource company publishing a variety of Web sites ranging from technology news to classified advertising and provides e-business solutions via its BannerView.com brand. Operating from Las Vegas, Nevada, Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises was established in 1999 by three childhood friends, Mark Cenicola (CEO/President), Jeff Helvin (COO/Vice President), and Joseph Stanley (CTO). Hard work and smart business choices have led them to their 8th successful year of operation, concluding with a move into a new self owned and operated secure data center facilty. We Don't "Oversell" You As you might notice, Virtrix.com doesn't claim to offer outrageous amounts of bandwidth like a lot of the Big Web hosting companies, such as 3000 GB (3 TB) of bandwidth. For your information, overselling bandwidth is a common marketing technique in the Web hosting industry. Most people use only a fraction of their allotted bandwidth per month, and Web hosting providers price their plans knowing that most people will only use a fraction of the resources available to them. Just check their terms of condition. You'll find that some Web hosting companies will likely shut you down for other reasons way before you could use the maximum bandwidth available to you each month. With a shared hosting account, your Web site can be hosted with hundreds or thousands of other Web sites. They would also shut your Web site down if your site starts to use a significant portion of the server's resources. Consider using a dedicated server if your Web site is going to need significant resources. Via our BannerView.com brand, we offer high performance leased managed dedicated servers. "The VAULT" A secure data center housing all of Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises operations, "The VAULT" provides a central location from which to operate. Multiple Internet service providers supply bandwidth to the new facility via copper and dedicated fiber installations. Centralized uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) protect server equipment from power outages with a 100 kilowatt natural gas generator, on 30 second standby, providing backup to server equipment and dedicated air conditioning systems in the event of a prolonged power outage. Server equipment is protected with a fire suppression system and monitored via a comprehensive security system. |

| Located in the newly developed Rainbow Corporate Center, Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises is the central hub where all services are provided in-house. Security cameras with infrared monitor key areas of focus in maintaining a secure perimeter in and around the building. |
| |
 | |  |
| Security cameras are also installed inside the building along with motion sensors throughout. | | Clients' confidentiality is a primary security issue. A proximity card is needed to gain access to the primary work areas, ever before entering the area where "The VAULT" is located and the Web site developers' den. Proximity cards are only given to Cenicola-Helvin Enterprises' current employees. In the event a person is no longer employed by the company, their access is immediately revoked. |
| |
 | |  |
| Utilizing the latest in Biometric Authentication technology, the only access to "The VAULT" requires two different methods of authentication for entrance; proximity card and finger print. | | With only three people having access to The Vault (one being Mark Cenicola, CEO, pictured), traffic in and out of the room is kept to a minimum. |
| |
 | |  |
| Solid concrete walls and static dissipating floor tile reduce the chance of static electric shock to computer components which could cause equipment malfunctions, data loss and server crashes. | | "The VAULT" contains the central nervous system which controls and monitors all servers, telephone lines, and security cameras. The benefit of having in-house servers is to allow us to manage and monitor your account on a daily basis. |
| |
 | |  |
| Multiple Internet Providers supply bandwidth providing fiber optics and copper lines to "The VAULT." | | We have 400 amps of power going to the room which goes through a main distribution panel to Automatic Transfer Switches. In the event of a power outage, they automatically switch the source of power to the generator. |
| |
 | |  |
| A 100 kilowatt natural gas backup generator on 30 second standby is located on top of our roof and ready to supply power through the automatic transfer switches. The backup generator is powered by a 6.8 Liter Ford V-8 that runs on natural gas. The unit weighs nearly 3000 pounds. |
| |
 | |  |
| Southern Nevada can get pretty hot during the Summer months. Fortunately, the building employs a Liebert System to supply The Vault dedicated air conditioning. | | The temperature of the room is monitored via our security company and should the temperature get above preset thresholds, we'll be notified immediately. |
| |
 | |  |
| The server equipment is protected from fire with an Inergen Fire Suppression System. In case of a fire a gas will be emitted reducing oxygen levels to 15%; enough to kill a fire, yet just barely enough to sustain human breath. | | During the switchover from utility power to generator power, our UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) provides power to mission critical equipment, resulting in a constant clean power flow. |
| |
 | |  |
| During a switchover from Utility Power to Generator Power, the central UPS system provides power to mission critical equipment, resulting in constant clean power. This unit is the battery unit and weights 600 pounds on it's own. The Power Module regulates the power and itself weighs over 300 pounds. | | Besides block walls filled with solid concrete for security and insulation, "The VAULT" is also protected and remotely monitored by a first rate security organization. |
| |
 | |  |
| "The VAULT" was designed for expandability. The ability to adapt and grow with the constant changes in technology, as well as the ability to add to existing equipment allows us to effortlessly provide superior service. |
