SafeEvault Security and Encryption
All data is encrypted before it leaves your computer(s) and is never accessible without your encryption key. This encryption key is stored only on your computer and is never transmitted over the Internet or stored on SafeEvault’s servers. Only you have access to your files, eliminating the threat of unauthorized access. SafeEvault cannot access the files or even read the filenames.
Each file is individually encrypted using a unique 256-bit encryption key. SafeEvault uses 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption technology, which was developed by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and is the current military standard.
For added security and to meet the Security Rule’s transmission requirements, each encrypted file is sent over the Internet via a secure channel using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. This is the same Internet transmission technology that is used for online banking and online credit card transactions. As a result, data is encrypted twice: at all times using the 256-bit AES encryption, again while being sent over the Internet to and from SafeEvault servers.
Further, all your data is sent to a fully redundant server and stored in a third redundant secure data center at another physical site. Each data center has 24/7 onsite monitoring, advanced security technology (such as biometric access controls), backup generators, and redundant connections to the Internet.
SafeEvault Logging and Archiving
Your backed up or restored files, as well as additional information and statistics about backups, are recorded in a log within the SafeEvault software. This log, which you can easily search, allows you to verify that files were successfully backed up. You receive an automated email notification after each successful backup. You can also view information about recent backups and total storage usage with SafeEvault’s client software. For further compliance adherence, CDs and DVDs of data are available for additional archiving.
Backing Up and Restoring with SafeEvault
Backups and restores are automated, eliminating the need for manual data handling. Backups begin automatically according to each backup set’s schedule, as long as the computer is on and functioning and not in sleep or power save mode. You can also initiate backups at any time. Because backups run in the background of the system, they have little or no impact on the computer's performance or Internet connectivity.
You can restore files with just a few clicks of the mouse. Using SafeEvault’s software, simply click on the individual files, folders, or revisions you want to retrieve. The file(s) are then downloaded to your computer, decrypted, uncompressed, and restored to their original location or another specified location on your system. A password is required to restore any files, which prevents unauthorized restores. This adheres to the majority of compliance regulations or company policies suggested by our clients.
In the event of a complete system failure, you can initiate a full recovery of backed up data in minutes. This recovery can be done from any computer, and not solely from the computer in which the files were originally backed up. You can download and reinstall SafeEvault software, enter your username and password, and load or type the encryption key. Once the software installation is completed, a few clicks of the mouse will quickly and efficiently restore the files, allowing you to continue business as usual.
