It’s always a boldmove to jump ship froman existing product. In doing so you won’t be disappointed, this for certain. I shall be moving to the Heimdal™ Thor Vigilance application based on the experience of Thor Foresight. " What would you particularly like to highlight ? "The product and the support has been are exceptional. The level of protection offered is by far the best in class and the overall development of the system is superior to those “average” products. Heimdal have hit the nail on the head and are developing a product the keeps on giving. The Windows update component is a clear example of this. Heimdal is a product that you believe in…I can see why you have the belief as its exceptional." Heimdal Security……A one stop shop for an exceptional product.

Removable disk systems such as RDX are capable of effectively supporting education institutions in implementing a data protection strategy. Cybercrime and malicious software such as ransomware have become a major threat especially for education institutions. Backup alone is a primary protection against data loss, but online backups are also vulnerable to malware. Therefore, it requires a storable medium such as the known tape, or removable disk systems such as RDX. RDX media combine the portability and reliability of the tape with the speed of a hard disk. They are used in single drives such as the RDX QuikStor or in appliances such as the RDX QuikStation with up to 8 drives in a single chassis. Designed for a lifespan of more than 10 years, they are fully backward compatible and offer storage capacities of up to 5 TB per removable media. They are suitable for backup, archiving and local data access via the file system. Due to their easy handling, they can also be used effectively in all departments and areas outside of IT. Revision-proof archiving and protection against ransomware In addition to being used as a backup medium, the use of a special RDX WORM (Write Once Read Many) medium together with the rdxLock WORM software enables audit- proof archiving according to legal regulations, according to which documents must be stored in an unchangeable manner. An effective protection against cyberattacks can be implemented via the rdxLOCK RansomBlock function. It first places all data on the RDX WORMmedia in the "read only" mode and allows write operations for selectable applications and processes. In the event of a virus or ransomware attack, RansomBlock blocks access and thus protects the data on the RDX media from infection.
