Setting up, testing and invoking a SWIFTNet DR environment has always been a bit of a headache, and following the recent SWIFTNet Phase 2 migration project, this headache has become even more intense.

Setting up, testing and invoking a SWIFTNet DR environment has always been a bit of a headache, and following the recent SWIFTNet Phase 2 migration project, this headache has become even more intense.

Synergy’s hosted connectivity service for SWIFTNet DR provides the ideal relief for institutions who want to remove this headache altogether.

Your SWIFTNet DR Plan is based on our SWIFT Alliance Gateway (SAG) interface which simplifies SNL connectivity to SWIFT’s Alliance Access/Entry interface systems.

Our SAG eliminates the need for Alliance users to invest in localised DR VPN boxes whether attached to dial-up or leased lines provided by SWIFT’s Network Partners. Your SWIFTNet security certificates will be managed by us and you will have access to SWIFTNet for either testing or fail-over, at any time.

We provide DUAL-P (Wapping) and Dual-I (Nottingham) SNL connection at Synergy’s SWIFT Service Bureau. We can also provide you with subscriptions to more DR SWIFTNet services such as Cash Management Reporting etc., should the need arise.

• Connectivity to Synergy’s SNL Hosting Service from your DR premises
• Multiple access points to the SWIFT network (Dual-P from Wapping and Dual-I from Nottingham)
• Expensive SWIFTNet connectivity replaced with inexpensive BTRadianz lease line connectivity
• Reduced complexity at your DR premises (no SNL or SAG software to recover)
• No impact on existing production environment
• No migration or one-off connection charges
• Customer certificates securely stored at Synergy’s operation centres
• Multiple SAG environments available from for enhanced service availability
• High availability service 24 x 7 (excluding SWIFT Allowed Downtime Window)
• SAG upgrades and customer RA software undertaken as part of the service
