With today’s ever increasing dependability on computer systems and computer data, the need for proper backup procedures and policies is extremely important.  All to often businesses either don’t perform backups or are very lax in creating backups of their computer data.  Businesses that do perform backups on a regular basis are using various media types such as Tape backups, Zip drives, or CD’s.  In most, if not all cases, the media has been unreliable and very costly.  For example, using a tape backup could cost up to $3,000.00 per year in manpower and the cost of purchasing tapes.  Tape backups have proven to be unreliable and unfortunately go undetected until there is a need to restore your data.  Zip drives are limited to the amount of data that can be stored on a disk and as is the case with CD’s.

With the Remote Backup service, there is no limit to the amount of disk space, it is fully automated, is very secure, and the data is off-site in the event of a disaster.  Here is a summary of the advantages of using the service:

Fail Safe:

• In the event of a disaster or computer failure, the data can be restored once the computer is repaired or replaced.
• If a disaster is eminent in the area, backups will be rerouted to a Tennessee location.
• Backups are stored in a Fireproof Vault.

 Security:

• Uses several levels of data encryption.
• Encryption codes remain on client computer and are never transmitted over the internet.
• Data transmitted is encrypted prior to transmission.
