Synapse AutoBackup

AutoBackup is an automated solution that allows servers, PCs and laptops to backup and recover data securely online, store files online, and access data from a remote location via an internet connection to a secure data centre. AutoBackup is a full-featured, multi-platform, robust and secure client side online remote backup software, for backing up of critical databases and files to an offsite location.

Enjoy peace of mind in safeguarding critical business data

AutoBackup performs a backup of all selected files, either full system, data only or network data. After the initial backup is complete, each subsequent backup session looks for all new files and the changed portions of previously backed-up files to append to the backup set. Your data is then compressed, encrypted, and transmitted over an IP (internet) connection to our secure data centres in Melbourne and Sydney.

Hardware failures, network malware attacks or physical disasters may put critical business data at risk. AutoBackup safeguards critical data assets with reliable backup on schedule. AutoBackup’s specialised backup modules support popular database applications, including:

Microsoft Exchange / Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft SQL Server
Lotus Domino/Notes
Oracle Database
MySQL Database

Compatible with all common operating systems

You don’t have to worry about OS compatibility. AutoBackup runs on essentially all the common platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, NetWare, UNIX (Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, FreeBSD) and all other platforms that support Java 2 SDK 1.3.1 Standard Edition.

Top security and military level encryption

AutoBackup secures data in encrypted format & sends through a SSL channel. All your data are 256-bit encrypted and compressed before being uploaded and stored on server through a secure SSL channel. Nobody, not even our administrators, can read the files. Decryption is possible only with user’s encrypting key.

Complete protection even when files are opened

AutoBackup can backup files even when you are working on them. In order to offer the most robust and reliable backup solution, our software leverages on Microsoft’s latest Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) framework to consistently backup open files without requiring additional applications or plug-ins.

Save money on bandwidth and storage space

Seed Loading Utility allows backing up to a local removable hard disk instead of directly to the backup server over the internet. Also, incremental data backup minimizes data transfer by uploading only the changes within a file. With In-File Delta technology, you can substantially reduce the amount of time it takes to back up files, and save storage space on the server by uploading only the changes that you’ve made to a file since your last backup.

AutoBackup at your desired time

Our software provides a flexible backup scheduler to implement your desired backup policy easily. Examples of scheduling options include back up at a specific time, at multiple times per day, and before Windows are shut down.

Restore to any version of backed up files

AutoBackup provides flexible retention policy settings which allows users to restore to any version of a file from the archive collection.

Easy monitoring with extensive backup status reports

AutoBackup users are kept informed about backup job status through email reports. All backup and restore transactions are thoroughly logged in AutoBackup, making trouble-shooting easy.

Restore from any location, to any location

Users can restore file from their backup from any location in the world via a secure login to the server and providing they have the encryption key to any location they choose.

The Client Software

Our AutoBackup client software works exclusively with our Backup Server. Its role is to monitor file activity on the client system and at scheduled times throughout the day, upload only the smallest of adjustments within changed files. All data is encrypted with 128/256-bit AES military standard encryption then compressed and then transmitted via an exclusive SSL certified internet portal.
All data in encrypted by default by AES encryption. This was chosen as it is the only encryption to be approved by governments and military around the world.

The Data Centres

Our data centres are Top level Tier, equipped with direct fibre optic and DMR connectivity to major ISP’s, uninterruptible power from multiple UPS systems and a diesel generator, 24 hour security monitoring, climate controlled with VESDA – Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus.
Melbourne
Our primary servers are the latest enterprise grade servers featuring dual hot-swappable power supplies, dual CPU’s, spare memory banks, ensuring our service is continually online.

Sydney
For added protection and system redundancy, AutoBackup replicates in near real time all backed up data onto a secondary server in a different state, All data transferred between the two servers is done so in real time, and via a highly encrypted private secure SSL connection.
