Encryption and network security are often used to protect data. Bushfires and tornadoes care little about whether the data is encrypted. Firefighters won't ask your permission before hosing down your entire computer system. Any offsite vaulting strategy will have vulnerability for the most important data in your business - the data you just created - not the data from last week. Physical security of data is often overlooked. Nearly every business closes after experiencing catastrophic data loss (up to 94% ).
Physical security of data is often overlooked. Nearly every business closes after experiencing catastrophic data loss (up to 94% ). ioSafe specialises in hardware to provide unparalleled physical security.
ioSafe is designed to be bolted to the floor or padlocked to anything immovable, our steel outer casings combined with fire and flood protection are designed to provide the ultimate physical security for external data storage.
According to IDC, over 100,000 external desktop hard drives are sold every day. By 2014 digital content in an average US home could total almost 12 terabytes according to Coughlin Associates! Impractical to upload anything more than a couple gigabytes, it will nearly impossible to upload terabytes to the cloud anytime soon.
Fires and floods happen all of the time. Open the newspaper on just about any day and you can find a natural disaster that's happening somewhere. Disaster events do not need to be newsworthy though to cause data loss. A simple pipe freezing in a home can burst and cause a flood -- destroying your data. For most homeowners and small businesses, insurance can replace computer equipment and repair damage to the building after a fire or flood. The risk however is that insurance cannot reproduce your valuable digital memories or assets. Once your critical customer files or family memories are destroyed, they could be lost forever.
ioSafe brings a flexible and inexpensive solution to the data storage market that upgrades disk drives so they can withstand fires and floods.
Nearly any data storage product can be optimized by ioSafe technology and protect digital information against fire or flood damage, in fresh or salt water. Our flexible technology still allows for active air cooling of the data storage device within the protected enclosure.
ioSafe protection technologies include:
- FloSafe — Patented technology providing cooling air flow through vents for reliable computer operation. Vents automatically block destructive heat and protect the data within the enclosure.
- HydroSafe — Patented technology used with FloSafe vents to provide a protective waterproof barrier yet still allow the normal heat dissipation typical of computer hardware
- DataCast — Proprietary endothermic insulation technology to protect the data against extreme heat
- MirrorGuard — Proprietary technology providing a reflective heat shield to deflect over 98% of the radiant heat from the data stored within the enclosure.
- CrushGaurd — proprietary enclosure features and materials to provide crush zone and rebar reinforced insulation features designed to withstand two story building collapse
- High Physical Security — Bolt down ability, steel outer casings and padlock capable. All our products are designed to be compatible with standard padlocks and/or be bolted to the floor.
If you manufacture data storage devices and would like to leverage ioSafe Protection Technology, ioSafe now has a licensing program in place to help develop a high security solution for you. Please contact us for more information.
