Remote Backup We
all like to think that we can cope with the
unexpected, but how many of us are truly
prepared for a disaster that affects our company
IT? We know that we should be making regular
backups of our most important data, but how many
of us think the process through and keep those
backups off site in a secure location?
European
Electronique’s Remote Backup Services
enables your company to have a secure remote
backup of your company data at a very cost
effective
price.
The Remote Backup Services work by
compressing
and encrypting your important data and
storing it off
site using your internet connection. The
service uses
geographically separate and technically
independent
data centres to ensure seamless
availability.
Remote Backup offers users the ability to
sleep easy
at night knowing that the data that keeps
their
business going is being safely backed up and
transferred over the internet to a highly
secure
Remote Backup Site, AND then replicated to
another
highly secure site. Remote Backup Service
from
European Electronique ensures that your data
is safe
and that you can recover it quickly and
easily should
a disaster happen.
