Technical information
Very few people know that their digital valuables are not properly secured when disaster strikes. That is why we offer SoSure Backup—a fireproof IBM vault that protects your valuables.
Online backup is the security solution of the future for individuals and businesses alike. There are a number of companies that offer online backup, but no one protects your valuables better than SoSure. We are the only company anywhere that has IBM support on all fronts—software, hardware, hosting and services. That is your guarantee for protection now and in the future.
Regular Backup
When SoSure is installed on your computer, it runs continuously in the background,searching for changes and uploading them to online storage. Thus, unlike so many other systems, SoSure does not depend on daily or weekly backups. You can rest assured that the most recent versions of your files are saved at IBM’s hosting center.
Auto-update
After you have downloaded the program, it automatically downloads any updates, such as new features or changes to the system. That way you always have the latest version.
IBM Hosting
We store your digital assets on IBM servers in a IBM managed highly secured hosting center. To maximize the protection of your data, we store your files at two different geographically placed hosting centers.
SoSure backup works on all computers running Windows XP and Vista
Your data is transmitted using standardized and secure web protocols (including https) to ensure that our program works with every type of proxy server and firewall. If your PC can browse the web, it can use SoSure Backup.
Timeline Browser
Our system saves all the earlier versions of the files that SoSure and IBM are protecting for you. This allows you to go back at any time to retrieve previous versions of your documents. The timeline browser is easy to use and offers a simple tool for managing your files.
Innovative handling of e-mail backup
The most used file program today is the e-mail program that contains invaluable information for both private persons and companies. An e-mail file can be hard to manage, as they often contain over a gigabyte of information. We have integrated an automatic function that ensures that our backup program automatically keeps track of any small changes in your e-mail storage file (like when you receive an e-mail). Instead of uploading the e-mail file as one file every time, our backup program keeps a check on what your e-mail program contains. Due to this, the system secures a quick and effective backup of your e-mails.
SoSure is fault tolerant
SoSure Backup has additional resources to draw upon. In the data centers, we use redundant components and fault tolerant technologies (such as server clustering, software mirroring, and hardware mirroring) to ensure service and data availability. This secures that breakdown of a component, will not affect your files in any way.
Subscription program
When you download our program, you immediately get a free trial version. If it lives up to your expectations, you can choose which type of subscription satisfies your needs. In just a few clicks, you can start a subscription with us, where you only pay for the services you need. The system is flexible, so you can upgrade your subscription if you need more backup space later on.
Encrypted datatransfer
To secure that no intruders gain access to your data, all data that is sent between SoSure Backup and our IBM servers is encrypted with the standard SSL. 128bit SSL is the industrial standard.
Firewall and demilitarized zone
With SoSure Backup, your files are protected in the most secure vault in the world: IBM’s hosting centre. All your date is behind a secure firewall in secured demilitarized zone (DMZ).
