Our Remote Backup System works like regular data backup software, with one important difference. Instead of sending backups to a tape drive or other media attached to the computer it is backing up, Backup Point sends the backup over the Internet, regular telephone lines, or other network connections to your backup server safely offsite. It does this (usually) at night while computers are not being used. Backups can also be done on-demand, any time. According to the National Computer Security Association (October issue of Inc. Magazine): It will take 19 days and cost $17,000 to recreate 20 megabytes of lost accounting data; 21 days and $19,000 to replace 20 megabytes of sales data; 42 days and $98,000 to replace 20 megabytes of engineering data.		Prepare yourself and your clients for a computer disaster. What would happen if all critical data was lost due to fire, flooding, theft, or even employee sabotage? With BackUp Point's Backup System, data is stored safely and securely offsite where it can be retrieved quickly and easily 24 hours a day. It is completely automatic. In fact, you may even forget it’s working. Most businesses put their lives on the line every night and don’t realize it. With businesses depending more and more on the data stored in their computers, proper backups are becoming much more critical. BackUp Point's Backup System addresses three critical issues to successful offsite backup: 1. Time: Our RBS system 'compresses' the data prior to transfer. 2. Expense: Our system leverages your existing Internet connection. 3. Security: Our system utilizes multiple layers of access encryption and validation triggers.
