SupportSquad Debuts Online Backup ($5/Month for 25GB)

SupportSquad, a technical support company offering an all-in-one solution for issues covering a host of electronics for consumers and small businesses, announced the addition of the secure computer data backup plan to protect from the loss of essential personal information.

The SupportSquad Silver Plan online computer backup solution will safeguard from unavoidable data loss due to hardware failure, human error and in some instances, natural disaster.

For $4.99 a month, the likelihood of losing access to your computer is never an issue. By adding this online solution, plan members do not even need to have access to their computer to access all their files. Imagine the relief in knowing all the important data such as email, pictures, and essential documents will remain safe from any unforeseen problem by merely having the latest service offered by Support Squad, the Silver Plan online data backup solution.

Each storage account owner receives an easy, safe and secure way to save items such as family pictures and video; legal documents and medical records; and other rarely used files requiring a safe storage option. Plan owners receive a private and secure login and password to store up to 25GB of data.

According to the Consumer Reports Web site, "One worry with storing backups at home is the potential for theft, fire, or other catastrophic loss. Online storage provides an option outside your house, adding an extra layer of protection by storing your data in multiple locations. But consumers don’t have to worry about setting up any hardware, and retain access to their data from any Internet connection."

External threats originate from sources outside the organization. Examples include hackers, organized crime groups, and government entities, as well as environmental events such as weather and earthquakes.

Support Squad provides a menu of technical support plans to complement the various solutions such as computer data backup, targeting small businesses and consumers. The Silver data backup plan provides a solution to enable consumers to safeguard personal data and records while providing unlimited access through an online storage account.

Through regularly performing a system backup, copies of data are made that may be used to restore the original data, should you encounter an unforeseen loss of data or information. A backup is useful primarily to restore data following a disaster (disaster recovery) or to restore small numbers of files after they have been accidentally corrupted or deleted, resulting in data loss.
