Backup with Confidence!
Automated, Online, Encrypted Transfer and Offsite Storage

Today, reliable data protection is not an option but a requirement for any successful business. Losing critical data not only impacts business productivity and customer service, but also exposes businesses to legal scrutiny for lack of compliance with industry regulations (such as SOX and HIPPA). A comprehensive data protection strategy includes a combination of local disk-based backups coupled with online encrypted backups to a remote site.

NitixVault extends Net Integration's award winning intelligent disk backup (idb) technology to now provide online encrypted remote backups.

Serving as a central repository for offsite backups, NitixVault is ideal for remote offices, branch offices, and other small businesses.

How NitixVault works

NitixVault is comprised of two types of servers, a collector and a vault:

Collector: The server that sends the backups. This is where you have the option to identify the data that needs to be backed up only locally and the more critical data that needs to be backed up both locally and vaulted remotely.  

Vault: The server that receives and stores the encrypted backups. The vault may be setup to receive data from multiple collectors. A vault is typically situated in an offsite location.

Once the communication between the collector and the vault is established, the backups are automatically executed, followed by an automated email notification. One can then simply monitor their email, sit back, and let idb and NitixVault take care of the rest (set and forget).

NitixVault: Key Benefits

• Tape-less and automated: Completely tape-less and hands-free, NitixVault requires little manual intervention.
  
  
• No physical transportation of storage media: NitixVault’s online, encrypted file transfer eliminates the threat of tapes or disks being stolen or damaged while being transported. Not only is online transfer more reliable, it is typically cheaper and faster than the physical transfer of storage media.

• Total confidentiality and security of data: With NitixVault, customers are assured of total confidentiality and security of data. All backups are encrypted prior to transmission, and the encryption key stays only with the sender. Nitixvault uses the 128-bit key Blowfish encryption, and all network communication between the collector and the vault is handled over an SSL connection using 256-bit AES encryption.

Tightly integrated with the Nitix operating system, NitixVault is ideal for any Nitix or NitixBlue customer, with no need to go through the pain of integrating and supporting a third-party solution.
