iDATAsure.com Provides Backup Servers for Complete Computer Failure - Regardless of Hardware

Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) June 24, 2009

iDATAsure.com will release a new version of their software on July 1, 2009 with new features for remote backup servers for business. With the update there will be support of Windows Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 as well as System State Backup and Restore (Bare-Metal Recovery).

iDATASure.com now supports Microsoft Windows Server 2008, as well as all other leading operating systems which can run Java2 Runtime Environment 1.4.2 or above, including other versions of:

Windows
Linux
Mac
NetWare
NAS devices
iDATASure Advanced comes with modules specially designed for backing up common database applications, including Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server, Lotus Notes/Domino, Oracle and MySQL.

The problem that many businesses have is getting backups for cases when there is either no hardware or the hardware cannot be replaced because it is outdated. iDATASure addresses this issue with an easy-to-use offsite data backup system.

“In the case of a total-loss disaster where the existing hardware failed or was no longer available (theft, fire, etc.), a system state backup allows the option of restoring to a new computer with different hardware. The backed up image containing the complete operating system and installed applications with the latest configurations and settings, along with all data, can be restored easily to a new computer.”

StorageCraft ShadowProtect and Windows System Backup allow users to recover data after a disaster. There are a number of products like theirs on the market that help facilitate a bare metal restore. However, both lack the ability to perform remote offsite backup easily and efficiently.

By combining ShadowProtect and Microsoft Windows System Backup with iDATASure’s expertise in automatic remote offsite backup technologies, businesses can perform complete bare-metal system backup. iDATASure.com’s Advanced backup client makes it easy to backup data for better protection no matter what the hardware. A ‘bare metal restore’ is the process of reformatting a computer from scratch. It usually involves reinstalling the operating system and software applications and then attempting to restore the data and settings.

“One of the problems with backups is that they are tied to specific hardware. In the event of a disaster, existing hardware must be replaced with the same make and model. iDATASure.com has now integrated with StorageCraft’s ShadowProtect and Microsoft Windows System Backup to offer automatic remote offsite bare-metal system backup and restore to eliminate this problem.”

Pricing for the ShadowProtect Server Edition 3.3 is $ 899 and ShadowProtect Desktop Edition 3.3 is $ 79.95

Social Media Marketing Company Provides Online Reputation Management and Monitoring

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 10, 2012

Dr. Matthew Loop and Dr. Len Schwartz co-created Automated Social Networking (ASN) to help small, local businesses maximize the power of the Internet and social media. Using this new service, local companies can now track, measure and manage their online presence and what’s being said (good and bad) about them.

The Internet can be an exceptionally beneficial force for a small business, said Dr. Loop. But, he added, it can also be damaging to business if the wrong information, such as negative reviews, blogs and reports, are published. The fact is anyone can put anything they want to on the web about a company and that information can find its way to page one of Google. Reputation management services from Automated Social Networking can expose and remedy any image problems businesses are having due to adverse material on the Internet.

Reputation management services include integrated search engine tracking and data, allowing companies to know how much their online presence has grown over the course of a month. Helping to ensure visibility online is ASNs ability to get companies prominently displayed in the top three local search directories and in directories that are specific to any enterprise.

Towards understanding why a company stands where it does, ASN sends each business a report focusing on monthly analytics, which means that company will know its SEO score. They’ll know how they’re fairing with search engines and if they need to adjust what they are doing. Plus, ASN has a unique feature that allows businesses to input data and make corrections on all directories with one push of a button.

Reputation management monitoring is ongoing and subscribers get digital updates through email or directly texted to their cellphone when new ratings or reviews are published. This new service also monitors mobile networks, which is especially important as more and more people are using their cellphones to access information on a daily basis. With local targeting of placement in directories and with map placement, businesses will be seen by those in the local area who are most likely to buy the product or service.

One great benefit, observed Dr. Loop, is the business owner gets peace of mind from knowing that their social networking, search engine optimization and reputation management are all being handled for them 24/7. Our approach is twofold. We help create a positive presence while working towards identifying any negatives that may be out there.

ASN, which is the largest turnkey, social media marketing company in the world, was created and founded by Dr. Loop and Dr. Len Schwartz. Both are experienced marketing moguls and entrepreneurs. ASN gives doctors, professionals and small business owners the ability to create a consistent, comprehensive social media and Internet marketing campaign. This helps to greatly increase new, targeted traffic to their websites.

Hosting.coms Intersite Cross Connect Solution Provides Reliable, Secure and Scalable Private Data Transport

Denver, CO (PRWEB) March 17, 2011

Hosting.com, the leading provider of cloud hosting and recovery services, today announced the availability of its Intersite Cross Connect(ICC) solution. Hosting.com developed the ICC solution to support customers with high volume or time-sensitive replication requirements and latency or jitter-sensitive applications.

For many companies, developing infrastructures to have zero downtime is both cost prohibitive and resource restricted; however, business continuity and disaster recovery solutions continue to be listed as one of the highest priorities by IT executives. ICC can help companies meet a critical component of their BCDR plans reliable, private transport between servers and datacenters for continuity and failover purposes. When data moves between Hosting.com datacenters, ICC guarantees the data is secure, the connection is reliable, and the service is fast and scalable.

ICC is ideal for businesses with large-scale replication solutions, data migrations and backups, regulatory requirements, and latency sensitive applications. ICC is a necessity as businesses continue to virtualize and use computing resources in multiple geographic locations.

Gabe Grice, Hosting.com Product Manager, commented, While it is possible to utilize a public internet connection between datacenter locations, the public internet is not as reliable or secure as a private connection. Mission-critical applications and regulated data and storage files should utilize private data transport to eliminate the availability and security risks of being on the public internet.

Hosting.coms unique connectivity between geographically-dispersed datacenters and Cloud Super Sites has made it a destination for companies seeking datacenter interconnectivity and redundant cloud-based solutions. In addition, the ability to quickly scale redundant, always on solutions in as little as 48 hours recently drew a fast-growth, enterprise-lending SaaS provider to Hosting.com. This companys cloud solution is widely used by mortgage banks, lenders and service providers and utilizes the ICC service to connect their database servers between two Hosting.com Cloud Super Sites. The secure and reliable ICC solution guarantees they can quickly add new customers and that their customers can access their mission-critical SaaS application at all times.

Darrell Hyde, Hosting.com Director of Network Security and Engineering, added, ICC is based on a feature called MPLS Circuit Cross Connect that is supported on our Juniper EX series switches. In essence, the Circuit Cross Connect emulates a traditional leased line service like a T1 or DS3 with a fraction of the provisioning time, and far more flexible capacity. Whereas traditional telco services can take 30-45 days for provisioning, Hosting.com can provision new ICC services and adjust capacity on existing ICC installations in as little as 48 hours.

Hosting.com recently released the 2011 Cloud Trends Report and Best Practices Report which indicated BCDR is driving explosive growth in cloud computing during the next 18 months.

SpectorSoft Provides Enterprises Using Mac OS with Detailed User Activity Monitoring Capabilities

(PRWEB) June 28, 2012

SpectorSoft Corporation, the leader in computer and mobile device monitoring and analysis software, today announced the availability of SPECTOR 360 7.4. This latest version of SpectorSofts User Activity Monitoring software for Mac and Windows networks enhances the industrys most advanced solution for monitoring the needs of computer networks with a mix of Mac and Windows operating systems, or of those dedicated to the Mac OS.

Using SPECTOR 360 7.4 User Activity Monitoring software, network administrators can now quickly and easily deploy, record, alert on and review the activity performed on Mac clients, making SPECTOR 360 unique in its ability to monitor the activities of employees running the Mac OS.

With its important Mac enhancements, SPECTOR 360 7.4 is in lockstep with the needs of the marketplace today by continuing to affirm the importance of the Mac in general, and the Mac on business networks specifically, said Mike Tierney, vice president of operations at SpectorSoft. Just a few years ago, analysts at Forrester Research suggested Windows PCs were the only computers companies needed to concern themselves with, but now that stance has nearly reversed. Forrester recently went on record urging business to prepare for a strong and continual influx of Macs in the workplace.

SPECTOR 360 User Activity Monitoring (UAM) provides detailed visibility into and analysis of the digital behavior of both Mac and Windows computer users, across all devices, on or off the network, across time, and within the context of their actions. SPECTOR 360 delivers screen captures of all activities that take place on Macs; these provide precise and accurate details that address a broad set of security, compliance, privacy and process-oriented issues in an automated, cost-effective manner. Without User Activity Monitoring, organizations must rely on costly, labor-intensive manual aggregation of logs and event alerts. Manual processes fail to provide reliable, complete results and frequently lead to failed audits, compliance violations and security incidents.

SPECTOR 360 7.4 is another powerful step forward for what already is the industrys leading User Activity Monitoring solution, said Tierney. Since inception, SPECTOR 360 has allowed IT and security professionals, human resources departments, legal counsel, general managers and business owners to keep their organizations secure and productive by monitoring the digital behavior of their users.

In addition to Forresters guidance regarding the importance of Macs in the business environment, the rise of catastrophic data breaches and insider threat has prompted another high-profile analyst Gartner, Inc. to pay close attention to User Activity Monitoring as a critical part of every organizations security arsenal.

In a March 2012 report entitled Information Security Is Becoming a Big Data Analytics Problem, Gartners Neil MacDonald advised, To help protect from insider attacks and to better detect advanced targeted attacks, organizations are increasing monitoring of all types, including detailed User Activity Monitoring.

SPECTOR 360 7.4 Does Detailed User Activity Monitoring

Activities monitored by SPECTOR 360 include email, chat/IM, files transferred, application use, websites visited, Internet searches, documents printed and data copied to removable storage devices. Plus, SPECTOR 360 includes SpectorSofts renowned Screen Playback function, a feature that permits the video-like playback of everything users have done at their Mac and Windows desktops and laptops.

User Activity Monitoring from SpectorSoft gives me complete visibility into the digital behavior of all the computers across my network, which includes Macs, said Celeste OKeefe, CEO of The DANCEL Group. The new version of SPECTOR 360 is going to make monitoring my Macs as easy as it has been to monitor my Windows-based computers. When it comes to SpectorSoft software, Im a believer. Every business needs to have it. It’s a new world with the technology we have out there, something we need to monitor.”

Solacom Solution Provides the First Hosted Multi-county Regional 9-1-1 System in Florida

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 05, 2012

The hosted system minimizes the amount of equipment required at each PSAP and provides a cost effective path to transition from TDM technology and T1 lines, to the newer Internet Protocol that will form the basis of next generation 9-1-1 services.

The fault tolerant system, installed at a central office in Gulf County, is configured for autonomous operation of the 4 PSAP tenants. Although the PSAPs share the common back room equipment at the central office, each site is unique and able to determine how calls to their agency are routed and handled under normal circumstances and backup scenarios. Management reports, also unique to each PSAP, are hosted at the central office and can be securely accessed by the agencies at any time.

The Solacom controller presently supports 14 Guardian Intelligent Workstations that provide state of the art IP desktops for public safety operators at the PSAPs. Three of the workstations are Guardian Mobile Positions, hardened laptops that are fully IP and allow public safety professionals to work from any location that has a high-speed Internet connection. Designed for disaster recovery and overflow at times of peak call volume, the mobile positions let emergency call takers operate as though they were at their regular PSAP workstation, with all the same features and capabilities.

Advanced, selective call routing over the new regional network is performed by a Solacom ESRP (Emergency Services Routing Proxy) that converts legacy circuit switched lines and devices to digital interfaces that use Session Initiation Protocol for routing over an emergency services IP network (ESInet). The new network, including the Guardian workstations, is designed to migrate to a fully i3 compliant system as the NENA next generation 9-1-1 standards are implemented by the public safety industry.

The Guardian system is ideal for consolidation and hosting solutions because PSAPs can share the cost of transitioning to next generation 9-1-1 capability, yet they retain full control of how they prefer to operate their individual agencies, commented Tony Parrott, vice president of sales at Solacom.

About Solacom

Solacom Technologies builds some of the worlds most reliable critical communications systems that integrate Voice, Video and Data to deliver advanced IP-based interoperability solutions for public safety 9-1-1, military command, security and other mission critical applications. With a legacy of innovation in air traffic control and public safety, our engineers have pioneered many industry advances over the past 25 years.

(PRWEB) November 29, 2012

InterDev, a leading Atlanta and North Florida-area provider of information technology and security services, today announced that they have been selected to provide managed IT services for two prominent Jacksonville-area CPA Firms, Barley, McNamara, Wild and Martin Certified Public Accountants & Associates (BMWM) and GunnChamberlain, P.L.

InterDev will be providing both firms with fully managed IT services including remote monitoring and patch application, helpdesk, backup and disaster recovery and CIO-advisory services. Both firms had previously been served by other First Coast area providers but chose InterDev for their reputation for personal service and security expertise.

Our priority for an IT services firm is to keep our data safe and our systems running 24/7 especially during tax season, said Susan Kelly, Firm Administrator of GunnChamberlain, P.L. From our initial meetings with InterDev, they made it clear that they will be here for us, proactively servicing our account it is a breath of fresh air.

One of the unique features of InterDevs managed IT services is their all-you-can-eat approach which allows InterDev customers to obtain services for all their IT needs each month without limits on helpdesk call volume or support tickets generated.

BMWMs requirements seemed simple enough, keep our computers up and running, explains David P. Barley, Sr., CPA and managing member of BMWM. However our CPA firm operates a lot of industry-specific software that is fairly server intensive, continued Barley. With InterDevs one-stop-shopping, we can get the support we need to keep everything from our applications to our desktops and servers running smoothly.

InterDev entered the North Florida market earlier this year with the opening of a Jacksonville office and now employs a dedicated team serving that market in addition to their Atlanta-based sales and IT support team.

When it comes to ensuring the security and integrity of their business information, increasingly business owners have come to appreciate the value of a fully managed IT arrangement, said InterDev Branch Manager Mark Aston. InterDev is pleased to be able to provide and deliver a high level of service and IT support for organizations of all sizes throughout the private and public sector.
