Most businesses understand the importance of protecting their important data and are generally good about backing up their network servers. Studies show, however, that many small and mid-sized businesses still fail to adequately back up their PCs and laptops(1). This might be especially true for the notebooks and home computers used by your mobile force, like the sales team, travelling executives and telecommuters.
The truth is: unless you’re connecting to the business network regularly and using a robust backup and recovery system, many notebooks and desktop computers slip through the cracks.
The top causes of data loss
Among the most common causes of data loss are (2): - Hard drive failure
- Electronic attacks like viruses and malware
- Loss of portable or desktop PCs due to damage or theft
Introducing HP Upline
Designed to help small businesses secure their data, the new, simple-to-use HP Upline service(3) automatically protects your documents as they are created by storing them in a data hub. The fully automated hub gives you easy access to your data from any Internet connection and lets you readily access, share, back up and store digital content securely. With HP Upline you can: - Securely access and share documents using any Internet connection
- Ensure your data is backed-up and available when you need it
- Feel safe and confident that your business critical data is protected
- Search, open, edit, share, and publish files stored in a secure data hub
- Enjoy transfer rates at or near line speeds
Protect your data
When you subscribe to the service, HP Upline lets you decide which of your files and directories you want. Then it compresses and digitally encodes these important documents, spreadsheets, presentations and other critical data, and copies them to HP’s Upline servers. HP Upline then automatically and continuously backs them up to online storage. The backup service can run with no user intervention, so you don’t have to worry about remembering to do it. If you do happen to lose your computer, files can be migrated to your new system using HP Upline’s data migration feature.
If you want or need physical backup, Upline includes an archive feature that reminds you to create regular backup copies onto a storage device, such as the DAT and Ultrium tape drives or the HP D2D130 Backup System.
