Otium Software Brings Automated Data Protection to Desktops

Otium Software, the leading UK-based provider of affordable Storage Resource Management (SRM) software, today unveiled UtiliSync, a data protection solution for desktops and laptops that enables home and enterprise users alike to easily and quickly set up and carry out automated replication of important data to USB keys, low cost disk and NAS products.

Otium's Managing Director Andrew Martin explains 'Critical company data is often saved on unsecured desktops and laptops and this can easily lead to permanent loss of mission critical data through human error as well as equipment failure. Very often no automated safeguard is put in place on desktops or laptops, thus creating a very fragile environment for the data.'

Thanks to its ease of use and affordable cost, UtiliSync will appeal to home consumers and business users alike.

Martin continues "Even though most businesses provide network drives for users to save data to, the security of that data is dependent on user discipline. As a result a portion of important data remains unprotected with no backup copy stored anywhere. UtiliSync is the easy solution to this problem."
