How is my data protected?
All hosting is done in a SSAE-16 Certified datacenter which has also met HIPPA compliance standards. Data is stored on a highly available SAN with daily back-ups to a separate SAN storage device compared to a single server with a single drive that could fail. All back-up is on high speed disk and no tapes are used in our back-up compared to most small office tape or web based back-up services.
The datacenter has a 24x7 guard, keycard access to the building, keycard and biometric to the datacenter floor and locked computer cabinets. There is redundant power to the racks, generator back-up, and dual power supplies on all servers.
With ChiroScribe being housed in the cloud, what if a server goes down?

What are the up time percentages?
