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.

Data can be recovered from any previously backed up state.
Disconnections are resumed from the last byte sent, no need to
resend partially transferred files.
Advanced scheduling allows multiple backups per day.
Status display shows optional progress bar for easy monitoring
and estimates of backup completion time.
Built-in version control to allow for recovery to previous file
