Floods, fires, water pipe breakage, earthquakes and other \'natural\' disasters are responsible for only a small percentage of system crashes and other data losses. Surprisingly, a wide array of other factors cause a much larger proportion of events from which Insight Recall is designed to help you recover, by enabling you to replicate your data and to restore it from an individual storage device uniquely configured to contain only your data, at our Tier One Secure Data Center.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some companies replicate locally, in the same building, copying data from their storage devices to other devices elsewhere in the building. While this may provide a feeling of security about the data, this doesn\'t eliminate some of the risks of onsite storage:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If your systems fail as a result of fire, earthquake, power failure or other event, a replication target at the same location would probably also fail. Data stored on BOTH devices could be lost.<\/p>\n <\/li>\n
If your systems fail as a result of operator error, virus, software glitches, or other events, it is possible that both systems may also fail. If a disgruntled employee should get ambitious about bringing down your systems, it is possible that neither your storage system or your local replication target are safe.<\/p>\n <\/li>\n
If your plan includes transporting your replication device at close of day (we\'ve even heard of storing it in the trunk of the car after hours), the stresses put on the frequently transported device could reduce its reliability. Further, if the replication is done at your site during the day, the replication device may be exposed to the same risks as the main systems.<\/p>\n <\/li>\n
Few companies that do onsite replication are equipped to monitor their replication systems 24\/7\/365. \'Replication\' to failed systems may not be detected until long after the failure occurs.<\/p>\n <\/li>\n
Onsite replication may be performed on systems that are processing other data. This increases the risk that other data will be cross-linked with replicated data, making recovery much more difficult.<\/p>\n <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
