Datalink Services can now provide a backup service, which automatically backs up important data every night over the Internet.The service works by utilising your Broadband Internet connection to compress, encrypt and then send your important files off to a secure central storage system.

Automatic: Backups are executed automatically and not left to individuals.

Secure: Data is always checked for accuracy & security.

Remote: Backups are stored in three separate, secure, remote UK sites.

Effective: Backups are done on time every time –schedules are kept.

Inexpensive: Peace of mind for less than the cost of a Daily Newspaper   This is for the storage required to hold the backed up data. This is an annual charge. Normal backup and restore activities are not charged for

Why use a Web Backup Service?
Traditional Tape or CD backup systems are great, but somebody has to remember to do it. The time you need a lost file, is the time that the tape hasn’t been changed. Also, if your building is broken into, or even worse, was burnt down, the backup tapes are usually left sat on top of the server. You could lose everything in one go.                                                                                                 
A Web Backup Service is automatic. It runs every night (or whatever time you tell it to), and sends all of your data away from your site to a secure server on the Internet. The server is hosted in a secure server complex, with 24/7 security, power and fire protection systems, with multiple redundant security features. After going through security, you can then retrieve your data to ANY computer that has an Internet connection, allowing you to get running as quickly as possible in the event of a complete disaster.

How Safe is it?
It is very safe, your data is compressed, and then scrambled into what looks like a random mess of numbers (this is known as encryption). Without your encryption key (which only you and your computer holds), nobody else can access your data – even as it is being transferred over the Internet. Even the security storage facility does not know your encryption code.

How do I retrieve my data?
You can retrieve your data from any computer connected to the Internet.

What data can be stored?
Any data can be stored.
