Remote Backup - How it works
1 Automatic
Backup A schedule is created to
automatically backup files on your computer. You can choose which
files to backup, how often to backup and how many historical copies
you need. We can also configure the backup to store copies on your own
server for easy access. Most importantly, it will all be automatic so
you never have to think about it.
2 Connect to VPN When the backup runs, a secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) tunnel is
created from your computer directly to our server for copying. Every
bit of data that passes through the tunnel is first encrypted using
the highest standards making it unreadable to prying eyes. VPN (Fig.
1) is regarded as the best choice for big corporations when making
secure, private connections from their servers to remote offices.
3 Copy Backup Files
When your files are delta copied to our remote backup server, only the
parts of the files that have changed need to be copied to maximize
efficiency and minimize load on your server and network. This method
greatly reduces upload times over other services and helps insure that
your server and network connection are only used for backup during off
peak hours.
