ServersFirst Advantages:

  • Disaster Recovery. Our SecureStor service is data backup and restore service that meets the stringent requirements for data protection, confidentiality and security. SecureStor should be included in your disaster recovery plan (DRP) to ensure you are securely storing backups of your organization's critical files and data. The SecureStor backup client makes data recovery a snap, allowing you to restore one or multiple files with only a few mouse clicks.

  • Data Encryption and Protection. SecureStor supports a secret key technology using a special text string used to encrypt all data that is stored on our backup server disk arrays. Alentus ServersFirst personnel CANNOT read or open files stored on our backup servers. Only those who know the secret key are able to un-encrypt the data and the secret key can be changed at any time in between backups or restores. If the secret key is forgotten or lost, our Backup Server Administrators may not be able to recover your data on the server. Hint: store your secret key in a safe place.

  • FastBIT Patching. The FastBIT patching process is the core technology behind our SecureStor backup service. The patching process involves the comparison of two different versions of the same file and extracting the differences between the files. When the differences are extracted from the two files, they are saved into a new file and compressed into what is known as a Patch. The patch file is often 85% to 99.9% smaller than the file which the patch was extracted from originally. In order to perform a FastBIT backup, the software has to backup the files 3 times: the first backup is a full, the next backup will perform an incremental, and the third performs the first FastBIT backup.
