INTERNET APPLICATION SERVICE DATA BACKUP & RECOVERY FOR ENTERPRISE REMOTE OFFICES AND SMALL & MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES.
Traditional server backup methods are not always ideally suited to this challenge. Once-a-day backups leave you vulnerable to data losses and trouble recovering data quickly in event of a data corruption, virus or other disaster. Lack of adequate staff can also result in inconsistent backup procedures and failed data recovery. Further, traditional backup tasks can be time consuming and keep your valuable staff from performing other mission-critical tasks to advance your business.
Internet Application Service (IAS) is the complete server data backup and recovery solution for remote offices of large
Enterprises and small & medium-sized businesses. Combining proven disk and online technologies, IAS radically simplifies the protection of all your company's servers, including file, database, and application and Exchange servers - virtually eliminating the risks and burdens of traditional backup methods.
INTERNET APPLICATION SERVICE BACKUP AND RECOVERY FULLY AUTOMATES AND STREAMLINES THE PROTECTION OF YOUR DATA THROUGH THE FOLLOWING ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:
" Continuous backup - IAS continuously protects your distributed data, from any location, ensuring complete recovery after a loss
" Fully automated backup - Backups occur automatically over the Internet or via private network connection. No manual staff intervention is required

" Subscription service or licensed software - Iron Mountain's IAS server backup and recovery solution can be delivered directly from Iron Mountain or through a certified partner in two ways:
o Subscription service provides secure off-site data storage in one of Iron Mountain's secure underground facilities, instant scalability and unmatched ease of use, and requires no capital investment.

A HIGHER LEVEL OF PROTECTION FOR DISTRIBUTED PC DATA
While sensitive data is increasingly well protected behind the firewall, it is far more vulnerable when moved to laptops and PCs outside the network boundary. Because they require action by busy end users many data protection policies are difficult to enforce, resulting in security lapses that expose corporations to the risks and costs of data loss.
PC DATA PROTECTION IS AVAILABLE AS A MANAGED SERVICE - WHERE WE DO THE WORK FOR YOU - OR AS A LICENSED SOFTWARE SOLUTION.

THE ENTERPRISE SOLUTION FOR PC ONLINE BACKUP AND ON-DEMAND RECOVERY
Many organizations desire an enterprise solution that they can deploy and manage themselves. With Connected® Backup/PC licensed software, you benefit from the same proven technology that Iron Mountain uses to deliver its PC Backup & Recovery managed service.
This simple-yet-powerful software solution protects your organization from PC and laptop data loss and makes it possible to instantly retrieve lost or damaged files.
Connected® Backup/PC Software:
" Enables IT to centrally manage distributed data backup
" Ensures fast, efficient backups without user action or IT intervention
" Data reduction technologies reduce storage needs by up to 85 percent
" Users can retrieve lost or damaged files without helpdesk support
" Enables anytime/anywhere system rollback in the event of data loss
" Streamlines the migration of PC data to new computers
" IT can flexibly manage deployment, backup schedules, user access
FAST, EFFICIENT BACKUP
Connected® Backup/PC utilizes advanced data reduction techniques that enable automatic, highly efficient backups without requiring end user action or IT staff involvement. Following an initial full backup, Delta Block® technology ensures that only data changes and newly created files are subsequently backed up. With SendOnce® technology, identical files located on multiple machines, including email attachments, are recognized and backed up only once.
The result is smaller, faster backups - even over dial-up connections - and reduced storage requirements and costs. In fact, with this solution, information from up to 20,000 PCs can be stored on a single mirrored system.
QUICK RECOVERY, ADVANCED MANAGEABILITY
Connected® backup/pc supports rapid recovery. All the data from every pc that's been backed up is available whenever it's needed. Just a few mouse clicks safely retrieves files and restores them to any computer with an internet connection.
This means end users can easily recover from common issues, such as accidental file deletions and viruses, by restoring backed up files themselves. When a system is stolen or damaged beyond repair, anytime/anywhere system rollback lets a user restore all their data to a new pc, replicating original files through the most recent backup. Following a large-scale disaster, your organization can immediately retrieve data over the web or request that data be sent on physical media to your chosen recovery site.
Additionally, with connected® backup/pc, your it group can centrally manage deployment, scheduling of backups, types of files to be backed up, and user access.
HOW IT WORKS
AUTOMATIC BACKUP, EASY FILE RETRIEVAL
1. Install the Data Protector Agent (a small piece of software) on the computer(s) you want protect.
2. Allow the Agent to select the files to back up, or select which files you want to back up.
3. Data Protector does the rest. Your information will be available for easy retrieval, up to the last time you backed up.
AUTOMATIC BACKUP
Connected Data Protector offers the first user-friendly, automated method to protect the information that resides on your desktop or laptop computer.
Rather than relying on external media such as CDs, Zip drives or floppy disks, Data Protector Subscription service automatically backs up your computer to the Connected Data Center through a secure Internet connection, employing the same encryption used by the U.S. government to transmit classified data. In fact, the information that's backed up and retrieved is encrypted right at your computer, and remains encrypted both in transit and in storage. No other service offers this level of security.
ON-DEMAND DATA RETRIEVAL
When the time comes, your files are easily accessed via your own computer. Or, if your computer is unavailable for any reason, you can retrieve files on any computer with Windows, Internet Explorer and an Internet connection using iRoam. All it takes is a few mouse clicks. Individual files are instantly accessible, and customers have told us they've been able to do complete bottom-to-top computer data restorations in as little as an hour.
