Rand Worldwide has announced its Rand Secure Archive division is expanding its range of data governance solutions with the addition of data backup. To reflect this evolution beyond data archiving and eDiscovery, this division of Rand Worldwide has changed its name to Rand Secure Data.
“Our new name reflects the thorough and integrated approach we’re taking to data governance which we believe encompasses three major components ― data backup, archiving and eDiscovery,” says Chris Grossman, senior vice president of enterprise applications at Rand Worldwide. “With Rand Secure Data, customers benefit from a single provider which offers a backup solution – focused on the recovery and restoration of all data types – along with archiving and eDiscovery solutions for data governance.”
A recent data governance survey conducted by Rand Secure Data found that although 98 percent of respondents had implemented a data backup solution, a resounding 75 percent indicated they were not satisfied with it. Backup from Rand Secure Data specifically addresses the top concerns companies express in regards to data backup, including; limited feature sets, security concerns, manual processes and the inability to recover and restore lost data.
Addressing Industry Backup Challenges
With the addition of data backup, Rand Secure Data is now able to offer organizations a comprehensive solution to handle their ever growing volumes of data that includes data backup, archiving and eDiscovery. “Backup is the foundation for a comprehensive data governance approach,” adds Grossman. “Organizations must ask themselves, ‘If this data were deleted, would it cause harm to the business?’ If the answer is yes, then the data should be backed up in a way that allows for secure and rapid recovery.”
