OVERVIEW

As companies become more and more data driven, information has become the lifeblood of many organizations and is becoming infinitely more complex and costly to maintain. Data protection strategies are complex and can prove to be a drain on IT resources and staffing. Any missteps taken throughout the backup process can prove costly and can result in a loss of critical data that may, interpret into hours of downtime.

Managing the complexity of today's data growth along with new regulatory requirements and the ever increasing proliferation of advanced technology threats combine to create the perfect atmosphere for catastrophic data loss.

How well are you protected? Do you feel your company would survive substantial data loss? How would you recover? Do you have a disaster recovery plan?

At Critizal, we have answers. We are experts in data protection and disaster prevention. We can reliably backup your critical data to our highly secure data centers, archive your data to meet regulatory requirements, and in the event of a disaster, we can respond accordingly to ensure minimum downtime.

What makes us better?

	Online Backup and Disaster Recovery is all we do. We are data protection specialists.
	We engineered our Online Backup Solution from the ground up with the healthcare industry in mind. Our goal is to offer the fastest, most secure and reliable solution. Without compromise, our solutions are rock solid.
	Our Infrastructure:   a. All servers, disk arrays and network infrastructure are fully redundant enterprise level equipment intended for 24x7 operations. b. Fully redundant disk arrays with RAID 60 fault tolerance. (Allows for 4 simultaneous drive failures per array without experiencing any down time - 1000x better than RAID 5) c. Multiple data center sites for redundancy and disaster prevention. d. Multiple bandwidth providers for network redundancy and uptime + Plenty of bandwidth = Always fast and responsive. e. Fully redundant architecture - Automatic failover capable in all hardware and software failure scenarios. f. Private fiber connection between data centers as oppose to Internet connection for replication. This results in higher security and protection for your data
	Unlimited Data Retention capabilities - Restore files to any backup point - i.e. Get the five day old version of the access database - before the corruption occurred. Most companies do not offer even close to the level of data retention that Critizal offers.
	Encryption - Our backup software encrypts all data on your local computer before sending the data to our data center. The data is then transmitted through an encrypted connection to our data center. When data is replicated to the secondary data center, it is encrypted again and sent via private fiber connection to the secondary data center. At any time when your data is transmitted, it is always double encrypted to ensure the safety of your data.

	Managed Backup - Peace of mind for our customers - We take care of everything. Missed backups, failed backups, file warnings are all automatically taken care of by our staff.

	Disaster Recovery Planning - We offer comprehensive Disaster Recovery for most scenarios. The benefit is if a disaster occurs, all we need to know is what type of disaster occurred and we already know how to react and can react with a purpose limiting the customers down time.

	Hardware/Network Redundancy - Our solution incorporates the use of multiple redundant hardware devices and connections to ensure maximum availability and uptime. In the event of a failure, the hardware or network is automatically configured to failover to the redundant hardware, and service continues uninterrupted.

Data Redundancy - When you back up your data to our facility, the data is first saved on our primary storage array. Immediately, your data is then replicated to a secondary array at the primary data center. Additionally, your data is replicated to our secondary data center and stored on a tertiary array. This gives us three copies of your original encrypted data that can be used to restore your files.

	Data Archiving - We additionally backup all client data to an enterprise level tape backup library for additional protection. The tapes are then stored off-site in a secure facility for archival and DR purposes. If at any time a customer wishes to have data restored from the archives, they simply need to call our customer service department to make arrangements.

	Delta Packet Technology - When you backup large files, instead of sending every night the complete file, our Delta Packet technology uploads just the changes made to large file, enabling us to backup very large amounts of data quickly, with minimal bandwidth consumption. When a restore is performed, our software applies the delta changes to the original file and you are back up and running.

	Local Backup and Local Restore - Our software allows you to create an additional local copy of your data for convenient local backup and restore to complement our online backup offerings.
