Business Vs. Nature

Business Consultants earn hundreds of thousands of dollars every year showing businesses how to improve their productivity. All business consultants in the Data Expertise area agree that the largest threat to business survival is data loss.

There are a lot of different data backup solutions available on the Web today. Unlike years past there are not only different providers but also plenty of different methods of data backup. Some solutions are "on-site" based methods. These include tape drives or other magnetic storage media, DVD-R & CD-R based methods & NAS (network attached storage) methods of generating local (within the LAN) backups of critical data. These methods of data backup are definitely better than nothing, & can provide protection against user error, data corruption, & in some cases even computer theft (that is if the data backup equipment itself is not also stolen) & plenty of the other pitfalls associated with digital media.

But what about protection against the most powerful of all forces, Brother Nature?

Hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, & other natural disasters are a serious potential threat to the crucial data you have stored within your computer network. Add in to the equation the collateral destroy of flooding & fire that often comes along with Brother Nature's fury & you have a recipe for some serious data loss in the unfortunate event that of these unusual, but critically devastating, events occur. In most cases your existing backup solution would be useless & would suffer the same peril as your original data.

The answer is simple: Have a complete, up-to-date copy of your data stored at a different location. You ought to back up your data using an offsite data backup service. Offsite data backups let you store mission critical digital files in a secure, remote location. When you store data in an offsite location you are doubling the protection of your most import data files & enabling a level of security that even the best on-premises data backup solutions cannot provide.

Your data is encrypted & backed up over your existing web connection to a secure server. You can set it up to perform backups at any frequency you wish. You may even set up the process to schedule backups while the office is empty on weekends & evenings, or when the computers are idle for a positive time period (great for those systems that require to be accessed 24/7 & cannot afford the potential downtime that may be incurred due to backup procedures being run at the time).

Brother Nature is a concern for the integrity of your critical data. All smart businesses understand this.

Your DATA is your LIFE. Protect it!
