Shireburn DataSafe

Protect your Critical Data

Our reliance on computer systems and the data held on our systems continues to increase seemingly endlessly. While companies have recognised this fact for many years, our own personal data on our laptops and computers including documents, photos, contacts etc are increasingly critical. The importance of effective backups of our data has never been greater than it is now.

Shireburn DataSafe is an automated software solution designed to securely backup both corporate and personal data automatically from servers, workstations and laptops to encrypted, secure data centres.

With SHIREBURN DATASAFE™ your data is backed up from your premises over a secure, encrypted internet tunnel to dedicated DATASAFE™ SERVERS located in highly secure, state of the art data centres. DATASAFE™ is a cost effective risk management solution for users and businesses of all sizes.


Start benefitting now:
  • Easier, More Frequent Backups - Data loss can be extremely expensive. With online backup your data is backed up and protected continuously, not only at night.
  • High Security - With 256-bit AES encryption and state-of-the-art data centres, your data will have the protection it deserves, protection which reflects its true value.
  • Remove all hands-on time - Eliminate the weakest link in traditional backups: human intervention. Additionally, avoid exposing your data to theft whilst manually transporting media off-site.
  • Low Bandwidth Usage - DATASAFE™ intelligently synchronises only the data you have changed since the last backup, at the byte level. Backups typically complete within a few minutes.
  • Monitoring Service - The solution actively monitors backups and notifies you in the event of a backup not being completed, thus freeing up more resources at your end and providing greater peace of mind.
  • Lower Cost - Avoid the cost of backup hardware, tapes and other consumables and most of all, avoid the time spent backing up manually and transporting media off-site everyday.
  • Versioned Backups - By default, all data on the DATASAFE™ Servers is versioned over 4-6 days. Optionally, keep versions over 30 days or more of some or all of your data.
  • Free Support - installation of Shireburn DATASAFE™ is free of charge¹ and any initial support and training required is provided.
  • Fast Response Time - In the event of data loss, you can simply re-download your data or, in the case of a major disaster, have a technician deliver your data on external media right to your door within two hours of the data loss event, at all times.

    How does DATASAFE™ work?

    The efficient and user-friendly DATASAFE™ APPLICATION is installed and configured on one or more of your PC’s, laptops and/or servers. You create one or more DataSafe Backup Sets which allows you to identify the folders and/or files that you wish to backup according to a particular schedule. According to the defined schedules your server, laptop or workstations will automatically encrypt and transfer the changes to your folders and files to the DataSafe Servers from which they can be restored in the event of any data loss or theft.

    DATASAFE
    runs in the background, very much like a virus scanner, and constantly monitors your important files and backs up your latest work.

    Implementing a “set it and forget it” approach, backups are performed automatically at predefined times every day and night or at the click of a button according to your requirements. You can also back up selected portions of your data on a continuous basis.

    The process is completely automatic and does not require intervention, so that you can free your mind of any backup concerns. While you may still choose to backup your data on tapes or external drives as an added precaution, the automation involved with DataSafe ensures your critical data is available to you when the need arises as it is off-site and secure. This protects against theft of computer equipment, loss or breakage of laptops etc.

    You are notified automatically by email or SMS if the DATASAFE™ SERVERS do not detect the expected activity from your site.
