ABOUT BACKUPWEBTOWN.COM     Protect Your Computer Files Nearly everyone has important information on their computers, like personal financial information, important documents, emails and contact information. You may also have irreplaceable multimedia files such as digital videos and pictures. Unfortunately, computers are vulnerable to data loss from viruses, hard drive and equipment failures, accidental deletions and theft. Properly backing up ensures that you will never lose your important files. Problems with Traditional Backup Backing up your data can be done by using tapes, CDs, DVDs, ZIP disks. Although certainly better than not backing up at all, these traditional methods are inferior to online backup, because they are: More Expensive. You have to buy the CDs and DVDs and other storage devices. Inconvenient. To truly secure your backup files, you need to store them offsite. Otherwise, your backups may be destroyed along with your computer(s) in the event of a disaster or theft. Risky. You run the risk of losing your data because tapes, hard drives, even CDs and DVDs all eventually fail. Time Consuming. Recovering files can be a tedious and difficult process.

NOC Facilities Both of the BackupWebTown NOCs are mainframe-type raised floor environment hardened to provide the maximum level of security and availability. Each NOC is housed in Class A locked office space within a campus environment and has 24-hour on-premises security. The computer room is appropriately secured for authorized personnel only. Each NOC has Liebert air conditioning systems sized for the BTU requirements of the space. A Halon fire protection system provides maximum security from fire. All power supplied to the computer room is provided by an UPS system. The entire facility is served by two separate power substations from Georgia Power. The primary substation provides buried, concrete encased power lines to the office park. BackupWebTown NOC Network The network is connected via multiple T-3 lines and routers directly to the Internet. Furthermore, BackupWebTown runs BGP4 protocol in order to provide "peering" with multiple ISPs. Thus, the network traffic is not affected during failure events with one ISP or router, because alternate paths are available. This ensures maximum uptime access to Internet applications. Network circuits are provisioned on separate Local Exchange Carrier fiber optics network that uses the latest SONET and FDDI technology. BackupWebTown has physically diverse entrance facilities to the NOC to ensure maximum separation of circuits for greater reliability. BackupWebTown uses multiple Cisco 7000 series routers for connections to the Internet. These routers are continually active and will automatically redistribute traffic load using the HSRP protocol upon failure events, resulting in a minimal site downtime. Network security at BackupWebTown is secured by access control lists within our routers.
