The Ansys Cloud Direct Service application is deployed in multiple regions to ensure the best availability and worldwide data center security:

  • In case of service interruption, critical data isn't lost due to replication.
  • Physical security is deployed to secure datacenters with access requests and approval. Security includes the facility’s perimeter and building entrance with two-factor authentication (biometrics), professional security officers, cameras inside the data center and patrol, and security scans. Learn more about it.
  • Isolated Compute regions consist of only enough resources needed to execute a job successfully. It's deployed across numerous regions. The customer is offered a choice of which region to use for running simulation jobs. All customer data persist in the customer-specified area and is never copied outside of the geography.
  • Isolation of environments and clear segregation of resources, access privileges, and a full audit of the activity log.

Our cybersecurity management follows industry guidelines, including ISO and NIST frameworks, for internal assessments. We work with many third-party evaluations and audits throughout the year to guarantee our customers market-leading certifications.
