RECORDS MANAGEMENT REMOTE BACK-UP |
Remote Backup works like regular data backup software, but with one important difference. Instead of sending backups to a tape drive or other media attached to the computer/server it is backing up, the remote backup software sends the backup over the Internet, regular telephone lines, or other network connections to the online backup server safely offsite to a level 3 data center. It does this (usually) at night while computers are not being used. Backups can also be done on-demand and scheduled to run any time. Benefits of E-Vaulting: • Automatic: Backups are completely automatic and done on schedule, reliably. No longer does someone have to remember to run the backup or rotate the tapes. In fact, most even forget it’s working! • Automated file selection: The correct files are backed up! Ordinary backup software is often installed with a list of files to be backed up, this set of files usually represents the state of the system when the software was originally installed, and over time often misses critical files that were added later on. Compounding the problem, most businesses do not take the time to re-set their backup software regularly to include new files. Remote backup solves this problem by constantly re-evaluating the computer system, adding files to the backup as needed. • Disaster Prevention/Recovery: Remote backups are immediately transmitted off-site and safely stored in a level 3 data center with triple redundancy backup! So in case of fire, flood, earthquake or other disaster critical business information is safe. Many businesses make the critical mistake of storing their backups on-site at their business – if disaster happens to the building it also happens to the backup, and places the company at risk. With remote backup a business can be back up and running with new computers and their latest data no matter what happens. • Redundancy: Once transferred off-site to the level 3 data center, the data undergoes triple redundancy backup – meaning it is mirrored on 3 backup servers. Because of this the risk of losing any information is next to zero! • Encryption: Remote Backups are encrypted for complete security. Tape backups are not generally encrypted so are susceptible to infiltration; anyone can gain access to a company’s critical business information. Remote backup offers eight of the strongest cryptographic methods on the planet, ensuring that no-one (except the authorized), not even the service provider, can read the files.
