Online backups are such a simple yet powerful idea that it's easy to wonder why anyone would bother doing anything else.

Put simply it means that backups of your files are made "online" on servers that are outside of the premises where the original files are stored. Due to the high encryption level they are perfectly secure - so secure that if you lose your key we have no way of unlocking them - and yet you can easily recover them from almost any PC.   

Just imagine....you are on your way to work on a Monday morning. Your head is full of the things you want to achieve that week but when you open the office door you realise something is wrong. It takes a second to sink in but then it hits you - you've been robbed. All the PC's and the new server are gone. Worse still - the backup tapes were still in the server and they are gone too. This is not the time to start thinking about keeping backup data offsite. For any business it is vital to get the backup data physically separated from the live data. Any disaster that effects the main data (fire, flood, criminal activity) is just as likely to damage the backups if they are not separated. Shercom's solution gives you this security - and a real sense of peace of mind.
