Each minute of downtime in today’s business environment is money wasted. In fact, an extended downtime can actually doom a small- to medium-sized organization. Gartner Group estimates that two out of every five businesses experiencing downtime from a disaster will be out of business in 5 years. Taking backup and disaster recovery seriously is the only real insurance against this possibility. Organizations of all sizes rely on servers, desktops and laptops to run their businesses and retain key business data. However, systems malfunction, software becomes corrupted, viruses spread and natural disasters occur. After such an event, most organizations are not prepared to quickly resume operations and ensure the organization is up and running as soon as possible. Whether an entire network, a single server or an important fi le is lost, the Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is always the same—immediate. To backup data continuously,


automatically and easily, the SonicWALL® Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Series appliances are the most eff ective solution. SonicWALL CDP can also expand protection to include operating systems, applications and system confi gurations with the addition of the SonicWALL CDP Bare Metal Recovery Solution. With the combination of the CDP appliance, CDP Bare Metal Recovery plus the CDP Offsite Data Backup Service,

SonicWALL provides comprehensive data protection that is needed by any small- to medium-sized organization’s network. SonicWALL CDP Bare Metal Recovery has been specifically optimized in an OEM arrangement with a leading software vendor—Acronis.


CDP Offsite Service Features and Benefits:

Continuous CDP appliance protection replicates data in real time to the offsite appliance, eliminating any backup vulnerability windows.
Only incremental changes are transmitted offsite which ensures minimal bandwidth impact on the network.

Point-and-click data recovery enables the administrator to have an organization up and running quickly and easily.

AES 256-bit encryption key ensures all data is securely transmitted and stored encrypted.

Confidential encryption key provides each end user with total control of their data. SonicWALL employees have no access to the key.

Flexible configuration settings allows the administrator to send all or some mission-critical data residing on the CDP appliance to another CDP appliance.

Recovery point objectives (RPO) ensure a current copy of an organization’s data is stored on the CDP appliance.


Data Center Features and Benefits:

Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and emergency backup diesel generators are designed to keep power systems up and running even during a blackout.

Earthquake protection is ensured with sound structural systems that meet and exceed seismic design requirements of local building codes.

24-hour on-site security with biometric identification and motion sensitive CCTV monitoring keeps the data protected from theft. The center is staffed with security officers around the clock.

Redundant fire prevention is ensured with multizoned, dry pipe, water based fire suppression system with sensory mechanisms (sniffers) to sample air and provide alarms prior to pressurization and dual alarm (heat and/or smoke) activation necessary for water pressurization.

Flood control is guaranteed because the facility is built above sea level with no basements, tightly sealed conduits, moisture barriers on exterior walls and dedicated pump rooms, drainage/evacuation systems and moisture detection sensors. Environment control is maintained
