How Does EPNET Remote Backup Work?
Remote Backup works basically like regular data backup software, with one important difference. Instead of sending backups to a tape drive or other media attached to the computer it is backing up, our backup software sends the backup over the Internet, regular telephone lines or network connections safely offsite to our secure data centre in Johannesburg.

Secure data backups not just to keep your data
safe... |
EPNETBackup server is useful to anyone who wants to save and retrieve files on
their computer from anywhere. Ever forget a Word document on your home desktop
that you really need at work? Ever download a PDF that explains how to fix
something at work and you realize too late you left it at home that morning? If
you have EPNETBackup, and you can reach your computer from any place on earth,
your files will never be captive on your hard drive at home again.
Sometimes it's when you are on a business trip and need an extra file left at
home, most often it's when in the office and didn't remember to bring files you
worked on at home.
The main advantage of a EPNETBackup over a web server is that you can save files
to the server, whereas with a normal web server, you can only get files. |

EPNETBackup Online Data Backup software accomplishes several
essential steps that are often overlooked or done improperly by other backup
software - especially in the regular non-automated backup systems.
|
|
Online Data Backups are done on schedule, reliably.
Most businesses don’t do this. For one reason or another, they don’t keep a
regular backup regimen. Usually it’s because the person responsible for doing
backups (if there is one) is too busy doing something else, or someone is using
the computer when it’s time for a backup, or they simply forget. Since remote
backups are done with automated software usually at night, when nobody is using
the computer, backups are always done on schedule. Physical access - we can
deliver a hardcopy backup to you in the event of your internet connection
failing or being offline.
|
|
The correct files are backed up.
Ordinary backup software is often installed with a list of files to be backed
up. This set of files usually represents the state of the system when the
software was installed, and often misses critical files. Further, it often fails
to back up files that get added later. Compounding this problem, VERY few
businesses take the trouble to reset their backup software regularly to include
new files.
|
|
EPNETBackup online backup solution
solves this problem by constantly revaluating the computer system, adding files
to the backup as needed. Several full copies of files are stored using a
sophisticated version control system unavailable in most other backup software
of any kind. This is much too important to overlook.
|
|
The general definition of "proper" backups requires
redundancy. One must keep multiple copies of the same files at
different points in their development, called versions. As an example, you
should have a different copy of each backed-up file for each backup session.
Further, you should be able to easily restore any of your files up to any given
point in time. Banks do it, big corporations do it, and so should small
businesses. Only EPNETBackup has such an easy to use version control system.
|
|
EPNETBackup Online Backups are encrypted for
complete security. Tape backups are not generally encrypted, so
anyone can read them and gain access to client database, billing records,
payroll, tax info, and everything else on computers.
|
|
EPNETBackup Online Backup Software encrypts
its backups using your choice of seven of the strongest cryptographic
methods in the world for complete security so nobody, not even the EPNET, can
read the files.
|
|
Backups are immediately sent offsite
and stored safely away from your computers and your businesses. This is
where almost every business makes its biggest mistake. Even if they do
everything else perfectly, backups are of little use if their building burns,
hardware is stolen or
they are unable to physically recover their tapes from the premises. Most small
companies who do backups leave the tapes in the building with the computer,
where they can be destroyed or stolen right along with the computer. Of course, you can see that this would be a problem in a fire or flood or an earthquake. But it's also useful in emergencies where businesses are forced to evacuate their offices quickly. Even businesses that do backups and have good, undamaged tapes have to shut down. Many go out of business simply because they don't have access to their data.
Online data backup can also be really beneficial if you travel a lot and don’t always use the same computer. Even if you forget to save a file to your
mobile drive you can access the file or files that you need online via your data backup. As you can see, this is a very beneficial service from a protective standpoint as well as from a convenience standpoint.
Online data backup services are the best way to protect your information and ensure that it is accessible no matter where you are and what is going on.
