What would happen if all those records, all that\ninformation was lost forever? The threats to data are many \u2013 from natural\ndisaster to equipment failure to cybercrime \u2013 but the best prevention stands\nalone: online backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can SMBs Use Free Online Backup?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are\nplenty of options for free online storage, but they are limited in scale and\nfunctionality. Designed more for individuals than companies, they can\u2019t provide\ntrue peace-of-mind protection for business owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why <strong>EPICTOUCH<\/strong> offers cloud backup as part of a lineup that extends from simple off-site data storage all the way to complete IT infrastructure colocation. Businesses that store data on our cloud enjoy the high speeds and broad bandwidth provided by fiber optics, backed up by redundant power sources, multiple storage locations, and 7\/24 cybersecurity provided by experts who must meet stringent standards to maintain their certifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We make simple,\nregularly scheduled backup service affordable, reliable, and easily scalable\nfor growing businesses. By taking data storage (and protection!) off your\nplate, we ensure you can focus on your business, rather than investing in the\npeople and equipment you\u2019d need to build a modern IT infrastructure on your\nown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your small or medium-sized business is still backing up data on physical devices such as thumb and hard drives \u2014 or, worse yet, you\u2019re not backing up at all \u2014 now is the time to explore the robust, secure, scalable cloud storage options available to you from <strong>EPICTOUCH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some\nmore reasons why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NATURAL DISASTER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flood, fire,\nwind, and rain can wreak havoc on any business, anywhere. Backing up data from\none physical device to another only results in two vulnerable physical devices.\nBacking up data online takes that information offsite and out of danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CYBERSECURITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are\nregular news reports of bad actors taking revenge or simply taking data in\nattacks that cripple businesses, government agencies, and other organizations\nof all kinds through malware, spyware, and viruses. Particularly pernicious are\nransomware attacks. Millions of dollars have been paid out \u2013 often tens of\nthousands of dollars at a time \u2014 by municipal governments, hospitals, and\nothers whose systems have been taken hostage. Secure online backup can allow\nthe targeted entity to completely wipe infected hardware and restore it to the\nlast good version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>VERSIONING, SYNCHING, AND SHARING<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online data\nbackup has become sophisticated enough to save sequential copies of your data.\nThat\u2019s really helpful for people who work with regularly updated files and\nsuddenly find they need to recover something they mistakenly wrote over or\ndeleted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accessing the\nsame file with different devices can allow you to take advantage of the best\nuses of each of those pieces of technology: think the mobility of a smartphone,\nthe screen size and full keyboard ease of a laptop or desktop, or the\npresentation prowess of a tablet. Cloud-based synchronization makes that\nseamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PEACE OF MIND<br>\n<\/strong><br>\nWhether you automatically back up your data in real time, at the end of the\nbusiness day, or choose when to push the storage button each time, the end\nresult is a feeling of security knowing your valuable data \u2014 the lifeline of\nmany an enterprise small or large \u2014 is indeed secure. How much is peace of mind\nworth to you and your business? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To learn more about secure and reliable online backup and cloud services for your business, <\/em>please visit our website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epictouch.com\">www.epictouch.com<\/a>.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How important to your business is your data?
