Reliably track the progress of your backup media along every step of the transportation route

Here's how it works:
The solution includes:
BackupCare for Tape Vaulting
Reduce the burden on your IT Staff to manage backup processes at remote data centres
Whether your current data centre is situated at a remote, unstaffed location, or if you happen to “stand up” your data centre in a third-party colocation facility, you already know – all too well – how remote sites or isolated servers add a layer of complexity to staffing, training and internal processes for your organisation.
Take the burden off your IT staff from managing a remote data centre facility by letting Iron Mountains knowledgeable specialists handle the backup and data protection process.
