Electronic
Data Vaulting: Reliable Offsite Backup of Business Data -
Network Technology Group
LR is pleased to announce that it has partnered
with Network Technology Group (NTG) to offer their "Data
Vault" service to members, member brokerages and local
boards of REALTORS at a discounted rate.
The "Data Vault service
provides a secure way for your business to protect its critical
business data, by providing an automated, integrated, and
cost-effective solution for backing up your company's servers/desktops/laptops
to NTG's Tier IV data center facilities. These data centers
feature redundant power circuits, triple-redundant diesel
generators, redundant battery backup systems, redundant Internet
connections through multiple and diverse Tier IV Internet
providers, onsite 24X7X365 monitoring and security, bulletproof
walls, a non-water based fire suppression system, and many
additional components to ensure that your data remains safe
in a crisis situation.
Subscribers to the NTG "Data
Vault" solution simply need access to the Internet and
special software installed by NTG on any of their computers
or servers that need to be backed up. At this point, a fully-automated
process can then be conducted nightly (or at any other
interval that you would prefer), whereby your data is
encrypted and then uploaded to servers at the data center.
If and when you need to restore your data, the process is
reversed, and you're back in business!
NTG also maintains a fully-appointed
10,000 square foot Business Continuity Center, where companies
who sign up for Business Continuity services can temporarily
relocate and access phones, high-speed Internet, and their
critical business data, securely stored on the "Data
Vault" service. In addition, the NTG BCC allows subscribing
companies to utilize conference rooms, equipment storage space,
full bathroom and shower facilities, and additional services
that can help your company to avoid damaging business disruption
due to a crisis.
Make sure you have a plan in
place for protecting your company's valuable business data.
For complete information on how NTG's "Data Vault"
solution works, or to request a proposal or sign up for a
no-risk 30-day trial, contact Toby Balsam with NTG at 225-214-3847
and identify yourself as a Louisiana REALTORS member. MORE>>
