Protect your most valuable business asset; Backup your customer data!
The Accra Cloud Backup Service ensure that the appropriate safeguards—including those for encryption, password restrictions, and data storage—are in place so that the protected health information (PHI) you work with and store remains confidential and secure as required by HIPAA, ePHI, PHI and PIPEDA.
The Accra Backup Service safeguards your data with strong encryption, which includes a required encryption key and the encryption of data during backup and at rest. You can further encrypt your data by using your corporate encryption key (c-key) or personal encryption key which is known only by you. During the backup process, all files are secured with a 256-bit AES encryption key and then transferred to our data center via a secure TLS/SSL connection. And as required by HIPAA, your patient database data remains encrypted while stored at rest in our data center. All incoming data is automatically duplicated across several distinct locations to provide high durability and availability of customer data.
HIPAA Security rules specify that access to PHI data must meet benchmark-based password creation and use. Your Accra Backup Service passwords meet or exceed length and complexity requirements, and password validation is time- and logic-sensitive and requires manual updates. Further, failed login attempts will automatically trigger account lockouts on an IP and user level.
The backup service provides many benefits and security options such as version management to protect your data. You data can be easily restore using either the application or via the secure web site.
The automated Accra Backup Service is based on a proven industrial strength backup technology used in very large data centers across the world called RSYNC. The advantage of RSYNC over other backup methods is, its proven reliability and its Internet friendly capabilities. The Accra Backup Service is fast, incremental (delta based), and cloud based implementing the RSYNC protocol over HTTPS. The benefits is less time doing backups and a low Internet bandwidth requirement, saving you money. Set it up and forget about it, the built in scheduler will do the backups automatically at the times you defined and will notify you via e-mail after each backup that it has completed.
