When you move your corporate data assets to offsite data storage, do you want them stored in a warehouse or in a steel and concrete encased bank vault? S2|DATA believes that secure offsite data storage should be just that, and warehouse storage just isn’t good enough!
S2|DATA has two high security, former bank vaults in Atlanta, GA situated on a 3-acre razor wire protected campus in extremely close proximity to fire and police protection. Security isn’t just a buzzword, it is literally built into the foundation of our facilities.
As a forensic and data restoration company that serves the legal and compliance market space, often discovering data for use in litigation cases there were common processes that occurred:
The Legal team requests the investigation of data
IT Operations instructs their offsite service provider to collect the required media
The media is transported to S2|DATA, where upon receipt a chain of custody documentation is reconciled against a pick list
S2|DATA performs the restoration & discovery work – all within our vault
Upon completion the process goes into reverse
The client was often subject to the following problems:
Depending upon quantity of media it sometimes took weeks to get to the S2|DATA lab for work
The media list sometimes didn’t reconcile with the pick list provided
Transportation provided further risk of data theft, delay or even loss
To many of our clients the solution to reducing these risks was obvious: use S2|DATA for their offsite data storage needs! Knowing there was a possibility of further discoveries in the future, removing the risk associated with transportation, logistics, offsite data storage and production was a top priority. S2|DATA’s High Availability Vault provides the means of storage and production of data in one location.
