Offsite tape vaulting

Cyber attacks are increasing. Is your cloud backup just another target?

Your final defense against digital threats is physical separation.

Organisations are generating vast amounts of data that need secure, long-term storage. Relying solely on cloud backups poses risks, as always-online environments are vulnerable to breaches and ransomware attacks. Additionally, storing large volumes of data in the cloud can incur high per-terabyte costs along with expensive data egress and transfer fees.

The Solution: Iron Mountain Offsite Tape Vaulting & Managed Services

Offsite Tape Vaulting ensures a physical "air gap" for your critical data. By storing backups offline and off-site, tape storage protects against remote attacks and ransomware. This approach supports the "3-2-1-0" backup rule for optimal digital resilience.

• 3 copies of data
• 2 different media types
• 1 off-site copy that is physically air-gapped
• 0 opportunity for data infiltration

Protecting and preserving business data offsite - meet compliance requirements while ensuring data availability

Dealing with the consequences of hardware malfunctions, human errors, software corruption and man-made or natural disasters can impact productivity. But the data has to be backed up and, more importantly, protected offsite so it’s available for recovery.
