Every company continually creates new data such as emails, invoices, reports and contracts. It’s a never-ending task for IT professionals to keep these files backed-up. But what happens if your hardware fails, a laptop is stolen or files are deleted by a virus or hacker? And what if your backup tapes are damaged in a flood or fire? Complete loss of data would be devastating.

IT-Archive is a new innovation that works non-stop to encrypt and transfer your data online to a dedicated server stored at OSG. It is extremely fast and can be fully automated. It is the complete solution for a modern IT department’s Disaster Recovery (DR) Plan.
OSG supplies your server so you just need to install user-friendly software on to your laptop or workstation. It’s developed by i-365, a Seagate company and world leader in secure data backup technology. It works with any number of computers, in multiple locations and with all platforms including Windows, Unix, Linux and Apple.
Simple configuration lets you set times and frequency for backups, plus any retention periods. You can duplicate your entire archive in no time at all and everything is confirmed in a report. With the option of continuous back up, stressful days and late nights become a thing of the past.
IT-Archive is intelligent and so fast. Delta Pro ™ Quick File Scanning and Adaptive Technologies examine files (including open documents) for changes to small data blocks. Instead of sending the entire file, it sends only changed blocks. It also compresses them which minimizes information transfer even further, making it extremely fast. The process is significantly faster than copying to traditional tapes. With IT-Archive, you also have the option of intelligent de-duplication ensuring only one copy of every file is backed up. Less storage space means greater efficiency and a cleaner archive.
All data is encrypted before it leaves your network making it impossible to read during transfer and storage. You select the coding algorithm you prefer; AES 128/256b, DES 56/112b or Blowfish 56/128b. OSG uses SSL protocol to create an encrypted link to the server, the same technology used in online banking to guarantee data confidentiality. You retrieve data using a unique security code, created by you during configuration. Nobody but you has access to your code, not even OSG.
Your data will be stored on a dedicated server within an OSG purpose-built data center. 24/7 security, advanced fire detection, climate control, secure internet and emergency power supply ensure maximum protection. And because it is off-site, you are covered in the event of a fire or damage in your office.
