ScoBackup
We are pleased to announce the introduction of our new DfE Compliant 3-2-1 backup service ScoBackup.
The DfE 3-2-1 standard is a best practice guideline for data backup, which recommends having three copies of your data, stored on two different types of media, with one copy stored off-site. This approach ensures that your data is secure, resilient, and easily recoverable in the event of any unforeseen circumstances.

Watch out for more of this in the coming weeks.
