Her company was broken into and most of the computers were ransacked. All the critical data were backed up onto their external storage devices but these were also taken away. The police were called in and from what they made out, it seemed to be a planned corporate robbery. There was nothing my friend could do except wait and pray. More than that, the heartache and pain this caused to her was unbearable. She had spent years building up her company. One year back, I had told her to invest in a good back up service like how my own company was doing for IBackup [http://www.ibackup.com]but she was never interested. “A pure waste of money”, was her response. But now she realized it too late. Our company uses IDrive,which maps our IBackup online storage account as a local drive on our computer allowing us to drag-n-drop, open, edit and save files in our online backup account as if they were on our local computer. It uses 128-bit SSL encryption for security, which is totally fool proof. We can access our online backup account through handhelds, web-enabled mobiles and also manage our scheduled backups through the Internet. We can also share backed up data with others. The same applies to backup of System State components. We were using Box.Net before this but since it didn’t have the flexibility of these features, it made our tasks very difficult. I am sure that the bitter experience which my friend had is something all of us should avoid. - Betty Recently, my friend who is a MD of a mid sized IT company had to deal with a situation she had not anticipated at all.
