Podcast: Protecting Data on the Edge
sponsored by Zenith Infotech
Posted:  08 Jul 2009
Premiered:  08 Jul 2009
Format:  Audio
Type:  Podcast
Language:  English
ABSTRACT:
According to industry statistics, the majority of a typical company's data doesn't reside on data center storage -- it lives on the "edge." The edge may be desktop PCs, laptops or even smart phones and PDAs. Often, the data that these devices hold falls through the backup cracks and is inadequately protected, if at all. In this expert podcast W. Curtis Preston describes the most effective techniques, tools and best practices for protecting edge or mobile data including:
  • Backing up remote sites to the data center
  • Backing up laptops
  • Using cloud storage services
  • Preventing data leaks through USB ports and other portable storage devices
  • Smartphone and PDA back up
