Security - It's the Top Priority

For the Non Technical Types

Security is the most important question about any online backup service you use and not all online services measure up. Basic file storage on a server is not at all secure. Any administrative personnel can access all of the data on the server at any time.

So what makes this system so much more secure?

1) Before it ever leaves your computer the process of preparing the backup encrypts the data completely. The data is encrypted at a high level of encryption (256 bit) and is of a higher order than banking and financial institutions. Not even multiple computer systems can join forces to crack it.

2) The unique combination of password with pass phrase makes the data completely invisible to any administrator. You must have both to open your files for recovery. At GeeksOnTime, we cannot even look at your data without that pass phrase and we cannot store it for you. It is so strong a combination that if you lose it, we cannot restore it for you. That is why we ask you to store the pass phrase on a disk. If you lose it, the only way to retrieve it is to ask several security questions for identification - questions that you yourself create or modify. If you fail to answer these correctly the system will not authorize the encrypted release of the pass phrase and the data is locked away forever.
