Today, more companies than ever recognize the value and convenience of using online backup to protect their server data. If your enterprise is considering Iron Mountain's LiveVault® Service, or any other online backup service, consider these questions:

• Could an unauthorized individual gain access to backed-up data?


• Could backed-up data be altered?


• Will necessary data be available when needed?


• Is data safe from fire, floods, and human error?

The LiveVault Service addresses various concerns with the most secure solution available. For example, the LiveVault Agent encrypts all data before transferring it from the customer's servers. All data remains encrypted at the Iron Mountain secure off-site Data Bunkers and on optional TurboRestore™ appliances. Only the customer controls the data encryption passwords. To ensure the physical security and availability of stored data, the LiveVault Service employs a fully redundant vaulting infrastructure at two Iron Mountain underground Data Bunkers.

Iron Mountain also offers the LiveVault licensed product, which enables organizations to operate their own servers if they are concerned about allowing data to reside on Iron Mountain servers. Client-side security for the licensed product is similar to security for the Service. However, the security of stored data for the licensed product depends on the customer facilities, personnel, and policies.
