Vendors Who ‘Set the Mode’ in Backup and Disaster Recovery Innovation

Editors at Solutions Review LOVE tech companies with personality. We love it even more when their products live up to their marketing, by delivering “Tuned-in”, relevant, quality enterprise technology solutions. Today’s security landscape is like the wild west; you’ve got information being taken for ransom, internal sabotage (25 percent of respondents from a survey conduced by Forrester reported that a breach occurred because of a malicious insider.) and straight up break-ins, because hackers will be hackers!

It takes a particularly progressive organization to provide exactly what enterprises require in a next-gen backup and disaster recovery solution. One that fights back like the wild west with data encryption, off-site warehousing, and on-call advocacy when times get tough. These backup and disaster recovery solutions providers make protecting big data look like Clint Eastwood.
