Tape Storage

Factsheet Continuity Services 10/12/2005

Maintain business continuity by protecting your data...

For the success of any business, data is vitally important. Without a structured policy forthe secure storage of backup data held on tape, a business puts at risk one of its most valuable assets.

ISC’s Tape Storage is a service which enables you efficiently to schedule the collection, transport and storage of critical backup tapes.

The availability of efficient, reliable, cost effective business continuity measures is critical. Tape Storage aims to reduce your exposure to risk by way of off-site media storage, thus maintaining your service continuity despite any ongoing operational problems.

Tapes are couriered from site in locked boxes, which are designated according to your own naming conventions for maximum security and to maintain the physical integrity of your data. Routine collections and deliveries are by either ISC or nominated couriers, and all relevant personnel carry identification to assure you that only authorised agents will handle your data. To prevent media being passed to unauthorised parties, we record all details of appropriate personnel.
