TRI Introduces Remote Backup Services

Sterling, Massachusetts; (June 13, 2005)

After 3 years of research and testing, Transportation Resources, Inc. introduces TRI Remote Backup Services. Clients are now able to back up and restore critical computer data over the Internet. It's the state of the art in online backup technology. Back up laptop computers, desktops and Servers. 

The TRI Remote Backup Service uses storage servers with built-in redundancy along with a remarkable remote backup utility, and the Internet. It is scheduled, verifiable and secure. The backup software encrypts its backups using a choice of eight of the strongest cryptographic methods in the world for complete security so nobody, not even TRI can read the files. Only the client has access to the original data files.

Backups are immediately sent offsite and stored safely away from the client's computers and their business. This is where almost every business makes its biggest mistake. Even if the client does everything else perfectly, backups are of little use if they are unable to physically recover their tapes from the premises. Most small companies who do backups leave the tapes in the building with the computer, where they can be destroyed right along with the computer.  TRI Remote Backup Service is a simple and effective.

At a predetermined time the client software "wakes up" and determines which files need backing up, and what kind of backup (out of three possibilities) is scheduled for that session. It then compresses those files into archives that can in many cases be only 5% to 15% of the original file sizes. These archives are then encrypted using an encryption key known only to the client.

After backup files are compressed and encrypted, the software activates the Internet connection. It contacts the server and sends its backup. The backup is verified for integrity before sending and while being sent, then again after it reaches the TRI Remote Backup Server. This ensures that the copy of the backup on the TRI Server exactly matches the copy that was sent from the Client.

For less than the price of a single DAT Tape, clients can backup every day for a month. At an incredible price of $42.95 per month for the first gigabyte of disk space and $29.95 per month for each additional gigabyte, it is an extremely economical option for secure off-site backup. TRI also provides an on-site client installation for a charge of $185 for the first desktop or server system and $45 for each additional system. Other services include permanent archive on DVD.

No tapes required, no transportation costs, no storage charges, no delays in restoring data. Using the TRI Remote Backup Services is efficient, cost-effective and secure. "We have finally found the right mix of hardware and software to help our clients backup their data", says Robert Jones, President of Transportation Resources, Inc.
