Serving Primary, Secondary and Higher Education establishments, Oakford Backup are proud to hold over 150TB of Schools’ information in our data centres.
Despite technological advances in the reliability of magnetic storage media including rewritable disks and USB sticks, data loss continues to rise. With backup media such as tape, CD and external hard drive proving unreliable, more and more organisations of all sizes are now turning to remote backup in a bid to improve backup and restore speeds, provide a level of disaster recovery, increase data security and to ensure that a backup is automatically taken on a regular basis.
By backing up your data offsite your school can be safe in the knowledge that its data is protected from any natural disaster, human error or hardware malfunction within your business.
