Backup Data Security Overview

We've layered state-of-the-art technology to keep your data completely secure.

Data is bank-level AES encrypted before leaving your computer, then transmitted and stored in that same encrypted format. No one can access your data without your Personal Encryption Key, not even us.

Level 4 Data Center Security

• Our two mirrored, Telco-class data centers are separated by 1,100 miles, in ultra-secure private limestone mines located 100-200 feet below ground.
• Each has redundant bandwidth using multiple fiber-optic providers.
• All data received by either hardened Data Center is immediately replicated to its mirror — connected by point-to-point, high-speed WAN links
• Traffic is load-balanced between the two sites, eliminating degraded system performance
• High performance HP Servers & Cisco / Nokia firewall security
• Each server platform has fail over and redundancy, continuous server monitoring and performance tuning, assuring that storage capacity is never exceeded.

Network Infrastructure

• Redundant power supply using backup generators with full power for up to 7 days
• Redundant completely independent electrical systems, power train, commercial power feeds, cooling system, UPS systems, dedicated A/C units, generator systems and fuel system
• Environment and climate controlled facilities, resistant to seismic activity and other natural disasters, with Class A vaults with OSHA certified fire suppression, EPA-certified water treatment plants and clean air fire extinguishing systems
• Best-practices networking and best-of-breed routers, switches, firewalls, servers, facilities infrastructure, power grids and telecommunications circuits are all deployed with backup components to maximize fail over and redundancy
• Failed account access attempts are logged and reviewed to prevent unauthorized access

Physical Security

• Level 4 (highest) security rating, 24/7 armed security, maintenance & service operation
• Finger scanners for physical access, motion detectors, CCTV monitoring & camera tracking
• Co-location equipment is locked in cage with sensors and alarm system
• Visitors require pre-authorization and photographic identification
• All access to computer equipment is logged

Backup Service Awards

Our backup service has received the highest acclaim from critics and -- most importantly -- from thousands of satisfied business owners worldwide who have told us why RDB is so critical to their success and peace of mind.

Data Loss Risks

Remote Data Backups provides the best solution for safeguarding your computer against a full range of common data loss and system failure risks including:

• Technical Disasters: Computer viruses & worms, hard drive crash & failure, PC power failure, backup media degradation, system updates, service packs, etc.
• Human Disasters: Accidental changes or deletions, theft (especially laptops), disgruntled employees, etc.
• Natural Disasters: Fire, flood, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, lightning, solar flares, freaks of nature, etc.
• Laptop Disasters: Laptops can easily overheat, suffer hard drive failures or power outages, and are frequently dropped and damaged, lost and stolen.
