SICL Protects Client Data With Cloud Backup

Asigra Inc.Asigra Inc. announced that SICL Ltd., a technology company  specializing in IT infrastructure solutions and services, is protecting data for their corporate, SME and public sector market clients with SICL Safe, powered by Asigra.

"We chose to power our backup and recovery solution with Asigra Cloud Backup because of its flexibility and reliability," said Cliff Fox, MD of SICL. "We considered alternative solutions, but Asigra was the only one we found that offers a superior level of speed, security and compliance to our clients."

Asigra Cloud Backup is positioned in the 2012 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Backup/Recovery Software. As a storage hardware agnostic solution with an agentless architecture, Cloud Backup creates time savings for the backup and recovery process. As a cloud backup software platform to be NIST FIPS 140-2 Certified and with encryption, it helps SMBs and enterprises meet compliance requirements such as HIPAA, Basel III and Sarbanes Oxley.

"Protecting vital data across an organization is a formidable challenge," said Fox. "With the rise in mobility devices, such as laptops and smartphones that challenge becomes even more difficult, as important data is stored on these devices. However, many organizations still rely on a fragmented and often ineffective policy of tape devices, manual routines and off-site storage. Without the proper backup measures in place, business continuity can be threatened. Our solution, SICL Safe, powered by Asigra, allows all of our clients to sleep better at night, knowing that their data is protected and can be easily restored if the need arises."
