How Does Gatekeeper Restore Data?
What You Don't Get with Gatekeeper
Gatekeeper is an automated data backup and restoration system providing powerful tools to protect important data. Unlike traditional data protection tools, Gatekeeper does not require any human assistance beyond the initial installation and setup. There is no media to install, remove, protect, or replace. Gatekeeper is highly secure and only the user has access to their stored data. It is safe, simple and secure!
Your valuable data is encrypted and stored at a secure data center. Without your password and passphrase, no one but you can access your data.
Gatekeeper installs a small client software application on the local computer to manage all of the data protection and restoration. After the data you want to protect is easily identified, Gatekeeper encrypts and compresses this data and then transfers a master copy to an eFolder data center.
During the 5-minute setup the user is asked to choose a password and a passphrase. The password protects access to the account and the passphrase protects the data. The unique passphrase becomes part of the Gatekeeper encryption algorithm. Each time a file is changed, Gatekeeper detects the change, encrypts and compresses the revision and sends it to an eFolder data center to be stored with the master copy of the file. Unlike our competition, the user determines what files and folders to backup and different backup procedures can be defined on a file-by-file basis. Just point and shoot and Gatekeeper does the rest.
Our easy-to-use system is flexible in how often to backup and how many previous versions of the data are kept. Because only the data changes or deltas are stored, very small amounts of storage are used to maintain many versions. Gatekeeper can even help when data is destroyed by mistake because Gatekeeper maintains copies of deleted files for a period of time preventing accidental deletions. This valuable tool will come in very handy one day, guaranteed.
The Gatekeeper client has all the capabilities to restore valuable data when and where it is needed. Simply launch the Gatekeeper Restore Wizard and follow the simple yet powerful directions.
