Secure transportation

When we move your data, you can be confident of its high security every step of the way. Your tapes are securely transported under lockdown, using our own fleet of GPS-tracked vehicles, specially adapted to transport media. At key points tapes are scanned for tracking and to document the workflow. We synchronize our tape pickup and delivery with your backup schedule.

Perfect storage conditions

Once at Iron Mountain, data is stored in highly protected facilities in low-risk areas. Once in the climate-controlled vault, your back-up tapes are protected by keycard access, CCTV video surveillance and highly trained, rigorously screened staff. Our facilities are accessible to major cities, making your data available whenever you request it, every day of the year.

Disaster recovery services

When disaster strikes, we immediately get to work restoring your data. We have a proven track record of supporting more than 250 disasters and have conducted 25,000 disaster recovery tests. Our expert personnel immediately locate the tapes you require, transport them securely and quickly to the site of your choice and work alongside your team to restore your data.

We also offer a range of services to support your disaster preparedness and response plan.

• Apply a consistent approach to archiving throughout your organisation
• Ensure the integrity of media and data for long-term retention
