Flaming Backup - Technical Overview

Flaming Backup is a combination of state-of-the-art server and network storage infrastructure provided by IBM Continuity Services combined with the highly secure and user friendly Backup Professional software from Attix5. The Attix5 software provides the tools to manage the backup and retrieval of data.

Data security and privacy are paramount in the construction of the software feature set. Attix5 Backup Professional makes use of the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol standard for secure communication between the Backup Clients and the Storage Platform, including data transmission (1024 bit RSA key exchange, 128 bit RC4 stream cipher and SHA-1 integrity checking). Data is stored using 448-bit Blowfish encryption in CBC mode on the Storage Platform. Backup account encryption keys are not stored with the data and globally recognised techniques are applied to ensure the integrity and security of all data protected with Backup Professional. Access to a user's stored data is via a user name, password and an encryption key known only to the user.

Flaming Backup minimises risk, maximises productivity and allows the user to automatically back up files and documents and retrieve them across the Internet. The service is highly secure, scalable and an efficient solution. Data held on PCs, laptops or servers, plus running server applications such as Exchange and SQL, can be easily and securely be backed up.
