David Farajun - Asigra CEO

By utilising Asigra, Backup Technology has streamlined the backup process for thousands of companies around the globe. The solutions scalability allows Backup Technology to protect customer data sizes ranging from 250GB to 5PB+.

Asigra allows Backup Technology to protect every Operating System, including Windows, Linux, UNIX, MAC, Novell and IBM. Along with all Operating Systems being supported all applications are supported as well, from Email services to databases. Again, Backup Technology can configure the software to meet all business operational requirements for backup and restore. For example Hot Database Backup allows SQL databases to be regularly backed up throughout the day while Message Level Restore (MLR) allows individual items in Exchange, Novell and Lotus notes to be backed up.

WAN Optimised

Asigra is WAN-optimised to keep backup windows and bandwidth usage to a minimum. This is achieved by the software running incremental forever backups and inline de-duplication. Therefore Backup Technology can provide a solution that not only keeps backup times to an absolute minimum, but their customers are not paying to protect multiple copies of the same file.

Asigra has been certified with the FIPS 140-2 security standard which is a United States government security standard. The encryption algorithm used is up to 256 Bit AES. Data is encrypted at source and remains encrypted on Backup Technology’s systems. As an extra level of security, the software registers the hardware it is installed on, making that the only device responsible for backups and restores.

“We were impressed with the testimonials we had heard about Backup Technology and arranged a trial in one part of the business to back up the file and mail servers. Less than 24 hours into the trial, the file server failed – fortunately we had the Backup Technology system in place, and we were able to fully restore all data quickly and in its entirety with no problems whatsoever – truly a baptism of fire! Needless to say, we decided to roll out to the other offices too, which was done in a matter of days.”
