What is Remote Data Protection?

Remote data protection is simply backing up data to a location other than an organization’s center of business; remote locations typically do not have the IT personnel to manage data protection, so a solution is needed to protect data in branch offices, etc.

Why do you need a data protection solution?

Any enterprise is vulnerable to unplanned disruptions. Reliance on complex supply chains, for example, can cause even a small interruption to bring an organization’s operations to a halt, as can a disaster a state or a continent away. A single local event such as a fire, theft, severe weather, computer virus, or human error can be catastrophic, wiping out years of data and crippling an organization’s ability to function effectively.

What are the difficulties?

The need to find a data protection solution that complies with state and federal regulations and provides disaster protection for ever increasing amounts of data is consuming huge amounts of IT time and can be especially painful for small and mid-sized businesses.

One solution is to remove data to an online backup service. Online data protection does get the data to a remote location, but has disadvantages:

• Restoration of data can be slow because recovery must be through the Internet or by tape or disk shipped from the online backup service provider.
• Online data protection does not guarantee that the backup service will keep stored data private and secure.
