 Questions about Encryption and
Security

Q: How secure is my data?
A. Your data will be extremely secure. Your data is encrypted
before it leaves your computer with an Encryption Key that only you have. The
data is then encrypted again for its transit over the Internet. Your files are
then stored, in encrypted form, on multiple servers in high security
facilities. Because of the encryption, even Intronis personnel cannot access
your data
Q: What kind of encryption is used?
A. RemoteBackupCorp encrypts each file using 256-bit AES encryption
technology. This encryption technology, used by the U.S. government and
military is even more secure than the 128-bit encryption methods that are
typically used for online banking. Each file is encrypted before it leaves your
system and then remains encrypted on the Intronis servers, providing complete
privacy for your data. There is no way for even Intronis personnel to access
your files, because only you have your unique Encryption Key.
In addition, the RemoteBackupCorp software communicates with the Intronis
severs using SSL (Secure Socket Layers) technology. This is the same encryption
technology used by Internet browsers when a user enters a secured site. As a
result, your data is encrypted twice. It is encrypted at all times using the
256-bit AES encryption, and it is encrypted again while it’s being sent over
the Internet.
Q: Can anybody else access my files?
A. No. Your data is encrypted before it leaves your computer
and is sent to the Intronis servers, where it remains encrypted. Because only
you have your Encryption Key, only you can access your files.
Q: Where is my data stored?
A. Your data is stored on state-of-the-art file servers in two
secure data centers located hundreds of miles apart. All of your data is stored
in both locations. Each facility has advanced security features such as
biometric controlled access, 24/7 monitoring, backup generators and redundant
connections to the Internet.
