LogMeIn, which was until recently known as 3am Labs, said that using the secure connectivity of LogMeIn, users can now automatically back up important files to any number of remote and local computers, store them securely, and recover them instantly, without additional hardware or relying on third-party storage. Users choose the data to protect, where to store it, and the backup schedule.
The company said there are no limits on the amount of data transferable between systems, and the size of backup is limited only by the available hard drive space. If data loss occurs on one computer, retrieval is just a few clicks away on any other PC connected to a user’s LogMeIn Backup system.
LogMeIn’s set-and-forget scheduling is claimed to ensure that users’ most current data is automatically backed up to their chosen storage location. When disaster strikes, recovery involves connecting to the storage PC and retrieving the stored data in its original structure to the new PC.
Users must install LogMeIn Backup on two or more computers, and designate groups of files and folders to be routinely and automatically sent to a remote machine. All Backup Sets are sent via 256-bit SSL, and optionally stored in a password-protected, encrypted state on the storage PC, ensuring that only the user who stores the data can access it.
