7 DISASTER RECOVERY It s a scary thought, but organizations are still looking at disaster recovery and business continuity as more of an afterthought than a priority. According to Forrester, only 6% of the average IT capital and operating costs are assigned to disaster recovery or business continuity. That figure pales in comparison to other IT investments such as hardware, software, virtualization, and cloud computing. The problem with organizations devoting most of their budget to those investments is the alarming risk of failure. After all, what good is any investment without insurance? Given the business impacting events of the past decade, including ice storms, hurricanes, flooding, power outages and more, it s clear that much can be lost due to a natural disaster. Organizations that rely on their IT infrastructure to stay operational are at even more of a disadvantage, especially if they house their data and backup systems onsite. Aside from an uncontrollable force of nature, there are also other vicious threats that arise in the way of cyber terrorism. Oxford Networks An Integral Partner for Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Oxford Networks has three core differentiators: a highly redundant fiber network, an outstanding data center (considered the best of breed in Northern New England) and a dedicated team of technical and operation experts. These assets perfectly complement each other and provide the foundation for transformative next generation business network, compute and disaster recovery solutions. Utilizing these assets, Oxford Networks has built solutions to help organizations with DR / Business Continuity. Our Solutions High Availability Computing (as a Service) Oxford Networks software only solution utilizing Zerto is a hypervisor based replication technology. Without a capital expenditure, organizations can achieve enterprise-class continuous replication for continuity in the event of a failure at one or more sites. This is a preferred choice for environments that have a zero tolerance for downtime. Unique Features of ONDC 52k square feet of space A steel reinforced roof Up to 8 inch thick reinforced walls Low profile concrete construction Integrated firewall protection and comprehensive perimeter network security Redundant network connectivity on diverse pathways 2N cooling and power Backup and Recovery as a Service By leveraging Oxford Networks cloud storage as a target for off-site data, and the flexible recovery options that come from Oxford Networks software partner Acronis, organizations can achieve their RPO and RTO objectives easily and affordably.

8 DISASTER RECOVERY Computing Resources on Reserve This is ideal for those that need off-site computing resources on standby, but lack the capital budget to be able to pay double just to have them in reserve. Oxford Networks offers resources that can be reserved at a lower monthly rate and turned up when needed. Colocation For organizations that want to manage and maintain their own hardware but need a secure facility that is built for 100% uptime. Colocation options include by the rack or custom-built private suite or cage. Workspace For those that need temporary workspace in the event of worker displacement. Oxford Networks has a variety of ready-to-use workspace options that can be reserved and/or guaranteed in the event of a catastrophic loss of a customer s facility. Network With the most advanced fiber optic technology available, Oxford Networks has built a network designed for uptime and reliability. Our team of engineers can creatively build network solutions to help achieve continuity and redundancy for any size organization. Customers do not need to be directly tied into the Oxford fiber network to benefit from the infrastructure. Oxford can support DR sites utilizing a variety of last-mile transport options. By joining the data center with the customer s network, Oxford can provide the highest level of availability for even the most complex environments. Oxford s upstream connectivity, also known as IDT (internet data transfer), can support access to critical systems through the public Internet, allowing for a DR plan where employees are dispersed or working from many remote sites. What Makes Oxford a Great Site for DR / BC Options? Oxford Networks flagship data center and colocation facility is built to handle any outside force. In fact, the Oxford data center is located in a military grade, high security facility previously used as the communications center for the now decommissioned Brunswick Naval Air Station in Brunswick, Maine. In addition to Brunswick, Oxford Networks has a colocation and off-site data center located in Bangor, Maine. This provides geo-diversity for cloud storage or other DR requirements. In addition to outstanding facilities, Oxford has a skilled staff of IT professionals and engineers available 24x7 to assist clients with emergency needs.

10 BRaaS Backup and Recovery as a Service by Oxford Networks Incremental and Differential Backups Identifies only the changes made since the last backup, significantly reducing backup time and the impact on network usage and backup storage. Backup Schemes Acronis Backup Advanced products have set a predefined industry standard schemes (such as Gransfather-Father-Son or Tower-of-Hanoi). Custom schemes may be configured with advanced settings). Backup Operations Scheduling Backups run automatically based on your specific schedule, but they also offer the flexibility of being triggered by specific events (user logging on/off, machines being powered on/off, and so on) Encrypted Storage and Communication Critical backup data can be encrypted with industry-standard 256-bit AES algorithm. All data transmissions are performed over an SSL encrypted channel by default. Wake-On-LAN Support Will automatically turn on a machine when it is time to run a backup. This ensures execution of the backup plan for that machine, independent of its power state. Catalogues and Indexing Backup indexing and centralized catalogues help you quickly find a particular version of disk image, file, folder application database, or individual data item even if backups are split across different storage media. Validation and Consolidation Manual or scheduled automatic validation of backups ensures system and user data are recoverable. Consolidation of incremental backups provides the ability to save additional storage space. Throttling Backup operations may be limited with network bandwidth and disk-write speed throttling to minimize impact of running backups during production hours. Storage and Retention Policies Backup data may be automatically moved between various storage locations, and older backups may be deleted to save space for newly created backups.

Oxford Networks believes strongly in the power of the Sophos UTM suite and the advantages it providers to end users. The features that Sophos provides however can be achieved through many other resellers. Most of those resellers will deploy UTM hardware that typically sits on-premises, at the edge of your corporate network. This approach has disadvantages, including a higher capital cost, a lower level of reliability and all of the other headaches of managing a device on-site. Oxford Networks approaches managing security by centralizing the firewall at the core of the network, within the cloud infrastructure at the Oxford Network data center. This provides you with four distinct advantages: Performance - It places the firewall where there is maximum throughput, eliminating concerns that your firewall could be the cause of latency or congestion within your network Scalability & Cost Savings - It virtualizes the firewall which allows for scalability and growth over time. As you add more users and as traffic increases across your network you do not have to over-buy a piece of hardware or buy new hardware, you can simply add additional resources to the virtual machine for a marginal increase in the monthly rate. High Availability - The virtualized firewall can be re-built quickly and easily in the event of a failure. This is not the case with a stand-alone premises-based firewall. Simplified Management - Managing the firewall is centralized through a single portal. Branch offices hang off the virtual firewall and are supported by RED hardware that requires zero on-site maintenance or configuration. Sources:
