1 Data Protection Secure Media Management Offsite Tape Vaulting Drives Efficiencies, Enhances Control and Improves Audit Readiness

2 Data Protection Safeguarding your organization s information with: Media management best practices and innovative security technologies that protect backup tapes as they move from your location to our vaults Advanced tools to track chain of custody as media moves between handlers and locations Formalized, auditable workflows that help prove compliance throughout the process All of which are available from the Iron Mountain Offsite Tape Vaulting service. 2 / Offsite Tape Vaulting Services

3 The Evolving Challenges of Information Management With greater emphasis on enhancing privacy and security, meeting compliance regulations and proving chain of custody, the rules of offsite tape storage practices are undergoing significant change. To meet these emerging demands, you have likely found the need to implement access policies that account for larger volumes of media and exercise greater control over the movement and storage of your tapes. And of course, you need to achieve these goals while ensuring that all processes are executed as efficiently as possible. For example, as information volumes multiply exponentially, you will have to manage data growth while providing access to information across formats and locations. At the same time, it s important to gain greater control over tape media to ensure it is secure when being transported, and to prove that offsite tape storage complies with governing policies during audits. What s more, you must also refine and strengthen tape and media management processes to drive greater efficiencies and cost savings. And as your policies evolve, Iron Mountain can help you put a program in place that is tailored to your unique needs and supports the ongoing security of your media. Offsite Tape Vaulting from Iron Mountain A proven, reliable method of efficiently and effectively protecting the business-critical information your company stores outside its walls, the Iron Mountain Offsite Tape Vaulting service secures your data by putting it offsite, offline and out of harm s way. It does so by leveraging the following core capabilities: Best practice security measures that safeguard tape and other media both in transit and at rest A web-based user interface and around-the-clock support that make backup tapes readily available for recovery whenever the need arises Audit support that enables media to be tracked as it moves from your site to an Iron Mountain facility, and provides the reporting capabilities needed to prove chain of custody
