Downtime after data loss costs the average business over $8,000 per
day. Unfortunately, most businesses and remote offices with less than
100 employees backup with antiquated tape systems that are
subject to human error, cumbersome, and notoriously unreliable. The
facts tell more:
• Over 30% of IT costs are associated with backup;
• On average 20% of nightly tape-based backup jobs fail

;
and
• 40% of dedicated, full-time IT Managers can’t recover data
from their tape backups

As the value, complexity, and volume of business data increases,
traditional fixed-schedule backup to tape or disk no longer provides
adequate data protection. In addition to these challenges,
traditional backup methods can not accommodate laptop and
other mobile data that moves between home, business trips,
partners, and clients.
Businesses and remote offices deserve the same robust backup,
recovery, and data availability solutions as large enterprises.
Eliminate the Threats of Data Loss
Specifically developed for the business and remote office network,
Lasso CDP provides real-time continuous data protection for servers,
laptops, and PCs - both locally and offsite.
Lasso CDP is a zero-touch, hassle-free data protection solution that
backs up data as changes occur and replicates them first locally
and then to a secure offsite location. This real-time data protection
guarantees the most current file and system backup possible. By
combining the advantages of local disk-based backup (fast
recovery) with offsite backup (insurance against local disasters),
Lasso CDP is the first solution to eliminate (not just mitigate) exposure
to threats of data loss.
As importantly, Lasso CDP is available to remote employees,
partners, and clients by policies the IT administrator establishes using
the same security technology implemented by major financial and
government institutions.
