How It Works
Simple and secure online set up.
No one wants to use a system that is overly complicated, no matter how well it works. So, we did everything possible to streamline the data backup process so that it is both safe to use and simple to understand. Simply register, download our software online and follow the step-by-step instructions to complete the setup process. Our system includes time-tested methods for file encryption, data restoration and notification about software updates. It not only allows you to recover files that have been lost or damaged, but it gives you further access to those files in a variety of ways, including CDs, DVDs, removable hard drives and internet access from any software-enabled computer. We provide multiple options for accessing your data so you can choose the one that works best for you.
Here are the steps we take:
- First, Backup software is installed on the client workstation/server. This is a simple process of registering, downloading our software online and then using our step by step documentation to guide you through set up or contact us at our toll free support for live installation assistance.
- Data is compressed and encrypted at the client's machine prior to its transfer.
- Offsite Backups will perform an initial backup of the entire data. This is also called a "full backup".
- Encrypted data is transferred to Offsite Backups via the LAN / Internet.
- It resides at our state-of-the-art secure data center.
- Files recovered are still encrypted during the transfer back to the client.
For security purposes, only the clients' computer can decrypt the files.
