## Technical Information
The EI Secure Agents are deployed in a docker container on two seperate AWS EC2 instances in private subnets. A gitlab repo of the dockerfiles and terraform used to deploy the agent can be found at [This Repositiory](https://git.doit.wisc.edu/interop/iics/iics_secure_agent).

Due to the nature of a Docker container, files on the secure agents may be volatile, and if the secure agent restarts the file may be lost. If your integration needs to have non-volatile flat files, contact the integration team at integration-platform@doit.wisc.edu
