Overview:
Distributed data lives at the edge of the network on remote servers and PCs - typically outside the layers of traditional security afforded to a data center. The challenge with distributed data is that it's easy to ignore up until a point of failure. Distributed data is vulnerable to a host of threats including inconsistent backup practices, hardware theft and loss, viruses and human error. Whenever a company's important or sensitive data is lost (or worse, exposed) the company can face serious consequences including loss of business, legal liability, and negative publicity.


So how does an organization best protect and manage its growing amounts of data in an increasingly distributed environment? Central IT control and automation are your keys to taming the distributed data beast, so begin with these three critical steps:



  • Secure PC/laptop data with a centrally-managed online backup solution

  • Protect PC/laptop data from falling into the wrong hands

  • Secure data on distributed servers with continuous online backup
