Your data is always encrypted in our data centre
Our backup service powered by Acronis encrypts all incoming data with private keys unique to your account. Only authorised persons can access the data, whether only one file or the whole machine is restored.
Your data can be encrypted even before it is sent
The backup solution allows you to encrypt your data at-source with government-approved AES-256 strong encryption before sending it over to Acronis Secure Cloud Data Centres. You set the password – and only authorised personnel can access it.
Even metadata is encrypted
All management communication between your system and our Backup Service Cloud runs through secure channels with SSL encryption – at any moment in time all aspects of your data is secure.
Our Backup Service data centres are highly secure
Physical security is ensured via high fences, 24×7 security personnel and video surveillance with 90-day archiving. Biometric hand-geometry scan and proximity key card are required for access.
The data centres are Tier-IV designed
Acronis data centres are equipped with UPS and backup diesel-generators and are designed to ensure constant power availability for up to 48 hours to sustain an undefined power outage. In addition, there are redundant HVAC, network and UPS.
The Tier-IV data centres do not interrupt availability for any planned activity and can sustain at least one worst-case scenario unplanned event with no critical impact.
With 99.995% availability, Tier-IV is the highest availability level for any data centre on the planet.
Our data centres are SSAE-16 certified
An SSAE 16 is a framework for a data centre organisation to have an outside entity examine their internal controls. Compliance sensitive companies often require SSAE 16 certification, which include publicly traded enterprises, financial firms, and healthcare organisations.
Your backups are stored on redundant Acronis Storage
Acronis Storage is state-of-the-art Software-Defined Storage, running Acronis’ proprietary implementation of Reed-Solomon data chunk distribution with outstanding redundancy and error correction – more effective and reliable than traditional RAID enclosures.
