Data BackUp Blog

We store your data at two geographically separate, mirrored data backup centers with redundant bandwidth, redundant power and an unparalleled level of data security and performance.

Data Center Security - Level 4
Our two underground data centers are the world’s most secure commercial data storage facilities. Features include:

Separated by 1,100 miles, in ultra-secure private limestone mines located 100-200 feet below ground.

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.

Redundant bandwidth with multiple fiber optic telecom providers to ensure consistently fast and reliable transfers – no waiting cues, bottlenecks or throttling.

Each server platform has fail over and redundancy, continuous server monitoring and performance tuning, assuring that storage capacity is never exceeded.

Enterprise Network Infrastructure

Redundant power supply using backup generators with full power for up to 7 days.

High performance HP Servers & Cisco / Nokia firewall security
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 and EPA certified water treatment plants and clean air fire extinguishing systems (CAFES)

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.

Impenetrable 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.

Data received by either Data Center is immediately replicated to the other, so an unlikely outage or disaster at one location will not affect your data availability or service performance.

This is a comforting fact in light of the frequency of recent natural disasters (hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, tornado’s, etc.) that can easily destroy a single, less fortified data center.
