FocusStor develops a data backup solution for healthcare providers

In today's insecure world, cables become unplugged, electronics fail daily, disks stop turning, viruses and hackers burden businesses constantly, and regardless of specific backup procedures, electronic records will continue to be discarded and overwritten. Each year businesses loose billions of dollars due to data loss. The factors used to determine the viability and business continuity for an organization that has suffered from a significant system or data loss does not rely strictly on the ability to replace hardware or rebuild infrastructure. In most cases continued success relies heavily on the ability to quickly and successfully recover business critical data. Considering it's one of the key deciding factors in whether your company will remain in business, shouldn't a company be prepared to make the needed data protection decisions up front? Indeed, they should, and that is why FocusStor offers a highly secure data back up technology. FocusStor is designed for companies with remote offices, as well as small and mid-sized businesses, that have primarily relied on in-house tape or disk backups to protect their data. FocusStor guarantees recovery of all business-critical data and enables companies to return operations to the state they were in immediately prior to a data-loss event. More specifically, in the healthcare industry, data storage challenges are obvious and business continuity and redundancy plans become a necessity.
