Compartmented deployment

The SCIF Edition of the Portable Server can rule its own separate network just like its commercial sibling. Alternatively, the SCIF Edition can be integrated into a tightly controlled local network. The server's DHCP and DNS services are optional. The server can be set to any non-routable IP address. The data volume of the SSD drive is encrypted with LUKS (aes-xts-plain64). On startup, decryption of the application data requires input of a passphrase.

Subscription Model

Purchase of a Portable SCIF Server starts with buying the server box. You then purchase a subscription for the server software, adding at least one host subscription. Hosts can move their sessions between their networked XLeap environment and a Portable Server by downloading and uploading them as a file.

In contrast to XLeap's customary 'named' subscription plan, Host subscriptions on Portable Servers are not personal (learn more). If you allow it, any member of your team can use the server to run an engaging and productive workshop or event – anywhere!

Host subscriptions on Portable Servers support a defined number of concurrent participants: 25, 50, 100, 200 or over 200.

Portable Server Hardware

The Portable Server box packs the latest Intel technology into an ultra small, dustproof, industrial grade, fanless aluminum chassis. Running from a solid state disk, the ‘power’ button remains the only moving part. All configuration and maintenance occur through the browser. The robust server operating system (AlmaLinux) guarantees stability.

Note: As they are designed and licensed for deployment off the Internet, Portable Servers SCIF Edition do not offer conferencing services.
