Data safes are designed to protect your computer and media data, such as video and cassette tapes, from fire. Standard fire safes are NOT able to do so because all types of data media are extremely sensitive to heat. Data materials are much more fragile than paper documents and therefore have special requirements. Diskettes, for example, can be destroyed at temperatures far below the maximum specified for paper. All data safes ensure that the inner temperature of the safe remains below the melting point of 52 degrees Celsius (the temperature that would cause damage to magnetic media) for up to 2 hours depending on the model. Storage of disks also requires humidity levels to remain less than 85%. Data safes protect data media against all known risks; fire, heat, humidity, magnetism, burglary, sabotage and unauthorized access.
While choose a steel safe, it is important which we want. Each steel safe has not each protection feature.
Computer backup tools such as LTO, DLT and data tanks are so easily damaged, over temperature 50°C or humidity over 85%. Even a hot mug of coffee represents a real hazard, so imagine what a small fire would do. When a loss of data occurs many companies will never recover due to financial data, customer based, about companies. It is very difficult to cover data again.
As result of searches, most of the companies are closed which have lost all data.
Computer media is protected from fire, dust, magnetic fields, unauthorized access, accidental damage and electrostatics.
Fire could destroy your most valuable assets and records. The majority of companies that incur fire damage have not prepared adequately for the protection of vital information. Survival is possible but preparation is of utmost urgency. The investment in media protection will pay enormous dividends in the future. Procrastination can result in an irreplaceable loss of core data. |
