iWebFusion: USSHC / US Secure Hosting Center

USSHC / US Secure Hosting Center in Monticello, Iowa is iWebFusion’s IA1 location for cloud, VPS, dedicated hosting, colocation, and disaster recovery infrastructure. The facility operates at 24253 Highway 151 in rural Eastern Iowa, positioned within the Cedar Rapids–Dubuque–Iowa City technology corridor and near the geographic center of the United States. iWebFusion uses USSHC for “disaster-proof” hosting clients that need hardened infrastructure, geographic separation, and Central U.S. reach.

The Monticello facility is an underground, hardened data center built in a former U.S. Army Corps of Engineers bunker. The structure uses 5,800 psi concrete, steel-reinforced floors, walls, and ceilings, welded-seam steel shielding for electromagnetic pulse protection, and vault-door access. Facility systems are arranged in layers, including multiple biometric access controls, layered surveillance, redundant power generation, isolated UPS systems, and dual power feeds to the rack. Cooling infrastructure includes geothermal tubing on the USSHC campus and redundant backup air-conditioning systems contained inside the facility.

USSHC supports resilient hosting and colocation use cases where physical hardening, EMP shielding, flooding resistance, and geographic diversity are central requirements. Network infrastructure includes geographically diverse connectivity, dual isolated routers, dual data drops to racks, and BGP4 multihoming. iWebFusion / H4Y Technologies lists AS397373 at USSHC in Monticello through PeeringDB, tying the facility to its broader U.S. hosting footprint across Bend, Charlotte, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Monticello.
