Resolves Common
Backup Issue |
| Fully Automated: You can configure the schedule for once a day or 10 times a day, as often as you like. |
No more forgetting to backup your data. Procrastination, forgetting, office on holiday, just didn't have the time, not enough storage space (on CD, DVD, floppy, tape drive, USB memory key) are all resolved. |
| Multiple Facilities Provide Redundant Backup Protection: Your encrypted data is synchornized across multiple, secured facilities in different cities. This redundant configuration protects your data even if a storage facility is destroyed. |
Unless data backups are routinely moved to secure offsite locations, they are susceptible to loss, theft, fire (then water) destruction. They can be damaged in transit. Forgetting, procrastination or lack of time to move them offsite are no longer problems. |
| Multiple Server Clusters: Each facility contains RAID5 servers auto-synchronizing with other facilities, so your encrypted data is replicated to multiple locations. All servers use hardware RAID protection data drive configurations, plus power backup protection. This redundant data and power configuration protects against harddive and server failures. |
A single tape can hold all of your data, but if that one tape goes bad in just one spot all its data may be unrecoverable. Burning CDs is cheaper than a good tape drive, but they still can fail, and you won't realize it until you need them. |
448-bit Encryption: Banks and internet transactions use unbreakble
128-bit encryption—it has never been compromised and won't be for years to come. 448-bit is exponentially stronger than 128-bit. We use this more advanced algorithm because it is faster and more secure. |
Data backups are almost always open to anyone who happens upon them. This is typically not an issue until a tape is lost or a payroll backup CD comes up missing. It happens all too often, but many companies and home users don't recognize the need for high-level security until after a security breach occurs. |
Your Data is Secured: Your data is encrypted before it leaves your
computer and never leaves its encrypted state until you restore it to your computer. Nowhere in transit or storage does it ever leave its 448-bit encrypted state. Never!

Traditional data backups are vulnerable to prying eyes. |
| Backup and Restore Anytime: Backup as many files as you like. Restore them anytime. Sleep or play golf or go shopping while your data is being quickly backed up with unbreakable 448-bit encryption. |
Consistent backups are tedious, time-consuming and often require babysitting or monitoring. |
| Instant Email Notification: Add any number of email addresses to receive an automated email report after each backup job occurs. |
No more sifting through long and complex log files or hoping that the CD has all the data files on it. |
| Restore Files Anytime: Files can be restored anytime, day or night, from any Internet connection. |
You are at a remote location and you forgot to bring CD #145 that contains a small but critical presentation file. You spend an hour trying to track down an employee who has access to that file, then wait and wait for the email to arrive, and when it does it's the wrong file. |
| Binary Difference: DataShield101 backups use binary difference and data compression technologies. Let's use a 100MB database as an example. On Monday the first backup backs up the complete 100MB database using data compression to help minimize transfer time. Subsequent backups are based on binary difference. Let's say that Tuesday a few small changes are made in the database. Other backup products will copy the entire 100MB database again, but binary difference compares the binary bits of the file and transfers only the difference, in this case a very small amount of data. This works on all types of files. |
Still backing up your data folder of 834MB requiring two CDs? Still have to babysit your backups? Still labeling those CDs? |
| Easy File Restoration: Using an easy Windows Explorer-like interface, simply select the file(s), and from when you want to restore them, and click RESTORE. That's all there is to it. |
Let's see...was that file on CD #134 or #187? Oh dear, I just dropped the box of CDs! Oh no, hardly any of these are labeled! Or, which tape is that file on? Who labeled these tapes anyway? Aaagh, I don't have time for this! I'll just redo the file. (Sound familiar?) |
| No Backup Media Needed: Easily backup or quickly restore any file anytime. On the road with your laptop? No problem. Restore files from your hotel room. |
Have you ever needed to restore a file, but after an hour of searching through a stack of CDs you still can't find what you're looking for? |
| What About a Master Decryption Key? There are other offsite storage facilites similar to DataShield101, but many use a master decryption key. We do not. Only YOU can decrypt your data. No one can call us, pretending to be you or by any other means get us to decrypt your data—because we CAN'T! There are no backdoors, no security or privacy loopholes. Theft is never an issue since the data will always be encrypted while it's on our servers. Even a potentially malicious employee cannot compromise your data because ONLY YOU hold the decryption key. |
Practically anyone who has access to your backups can view your files and data. Can you sleep well at night knowing that? We can't. |
| You and You Alone Can Access Your Stored Data: Your data remains encrypted until you actually restore it to your computer. And it is not decrypted until it reaches your computer. At no time can your data be decrypted by anyone else. There is no master decrpytion key—we have designed it that way. Only YOU can decrypt your data. |
Practically anyone can access your data. |
