D. Additional Information / Policy matters

  • Please ensure that the Operating systems and packages are updated regularly to incorporate security and performance improvements.
  • NCI uses the IP address range supplied by the Australian National University. These IP addresses are regularly scanned for security vulnerabilities and monitored for suspicious network traffic and behaviour. NCI reserves the right to shut down and lock your virtual machine in the case your virtual machine is not secure, has been hacked compromised and/or is involved in a suspicious activity. NCI staff will inform the virtual machine owner and the project CI with the reasons for shutting down the virtual machine.
  • NCI charges for instances in ‘shutdown’ state as shutdown instances consume resources on the hypervisor. If you do not wish to be charged for shutdown instances, please terminate them or shutdown the instance and then shelve and shelve-offload the instance.
