Assureon SX Advanced Features

Assureon SX provides the benefits of our industry-leading Assureon Enterprise System, with the price and size that’s just right for small to medium sized businesses and organizations.

Assureon’s simple interface enables easy integration with any Windows platform. Exchange, Lotus Notes, SharePoint, Oracle, and other database applications are also easily supported with Nexsan certified solutions. Assureon de-dupes, backs up, encrypts, or replicates all stored files.

Assureon also provides the storage capacity, mandatory audits, and self healing. Moreover, at the end of the retention period of any file, Assureon SX removes the obsolete file to make room for new data.

Assureon File System Watcher (FSW) automatically copies files from a Windows client or Windows server to the Assureon SX. It archives files when they are closed or based on a scheduler. FSW leaves a copy of the file, a link, or nothing on the FSW host after a copy has been sent to Assureon SX. FSW can then monitor various folders and directories, each with different policies.

Assureon SX automates file authentication and integrity checking with auto-correction and auto-healing, using digital fingerprint technology to prove records are intact. It further protects data by automatically and continuously checking the integrity of files and repairing or replacing them with backups when needed. The user does not need to intervene; all processes are fully automatic with an complete audit trail.

Assureon includes data security features such as WORM disk functionality for non-erasure assurance, RAID 6 data protection (which allows for the loss of 2 drives without any resulting loss in data integrity), AES 256 strength encryption and remote replication of assets across a WAN.

The user can manage costs through a single integrated SX appliance, eliminating the need for multiple servers. It also controls costs via a plug-and-play model, where SX appliances are pre configured to easily integrate with current applications. Professional services for ongoing maintenance, as well as installation, can be completely avoided. Further, the Assureon SX’s de-duplication functionality removes multiple copies of identical files, thereby saving space and reducing network bandwidth needs.
