Any file that has only 1 copy, is a file you don’t care about.
Computers are just hunks of metal and plastic. if not for their ability to manipulate data THEY WOULD MAKE GREAT PAPERWEIGHTS!
Your PC stores, computes collates, compiles, and sorts data for you. Then we use it to share with vendors, customers, friends, or colleagues.
Computers are machines, and like all mechanical and electrical creations, their lifetime is finite. Eventually a computers hard drive will fail. It’s when not if. To protect our data, we should do regular backups.
There are only 3 basic ways to accomplish this:
- Manual backup, using either an external hard drive, USB flash drive, or with writable CD’s
- Semi-automatic backup using a tape backup system or a external hard drive / backup software combination.
- A fully automated backup system consisting of a RAID or off-site data storage.

CPC has a unique understanding of the problems associated with many data backup solutions. For example, many people back their data up to either the same computer or the same physical location. Data backed up in this manner is subject to loss due to fire, flooding, earthquakes, electrical surges or even computer viruses. Data lost due to these factors is often gone forever with no chance for data recovery.
Furthermore, with a recent surge in computer related thefts and employee sabotage, critical data can be stolen or destroyed with no chance of retrieval. In these instances where critical data cannot be retrieved, the continuity of an organization can be significantly and irreparably impacted.
These are just a few of the many problems that businesses face when protecting their data. CPC Data Recovery has listened to hundreds of data loss horror stories. CPC Data Services used this information to create a superior backup tool.
Key Features
Windows Integrated User Interface
CPC Remote Backup is integrated directly with Microsoft Windows, utilizing familiar environments, such as My Computer and Windows Explorer. The service is intuitively easy to use and fully automated. As soon as you power on your machine, CPC Remote Backup has you protected.
Local Copy
In addition to the remote backup, the software can be configured to keep a local copy of mission critical data. In the event of a non-catastrophic failure, data can be restored instantly with the redundant copy of data stored locally on a designated path.
Data Backup Auditing
CPC Data Services goes the extra mile to ensure critical data is being backed up. Audit files and backup logs are reviewed periodically and cross-referenced against the data currently selected for backup. Any discrepancies are discussed with the client and the appropriate changes to his or her backup schedule are made.
Restoration of Large Data Sets
If a client’s system fails and a large amount of data needs to be restored quickly, a copy of the client’s backup set can be shipped on an external hard-drive to expedite recovery of very large data sets. Charges and processing time for this service vary depending on the amount of data to be transferred. Individual files and folders can be restored online while waiting for the external hard-drive to arrive.
Automated Backup Scheduling
Backups are initiated automatically. The user determines what files, folders, and file types to back up and how often backups occur. CPC Remote Backup does the rest.
Unlimited Revisions
The user determines how many revisions of each file to store on CPC Data Services servers.
Differential Data Backup
After the initial backup of a file, only the changes made to that file are sent to CPC’s servers for backup. This significantly reduces the amount of data that has to be transmitted over the Internet, preserving your bandwidth for other uses. What’s more, depending on your needs, CPC Remote Backup can be configured to utilize different variations of the differential feature, either a light weight algorithm or in tandem with the local copy feature.
Multi-layer Encryption
Data is encrypted prior to transmission and remains encrypted while on CPC Data Services backup servers.
