Why Online Data Backup & Protection?

Traditional backup methods rely on manual, infrequent exports, leaving your building automation system exposed to data loss from hardware failures, cyber threats, or human error. In many cases, it is unclear when backups last occurred or where files are stored. As data volumes grow, these approaches cannot meet today's expectations for reliability, speed, and operational continuity.

Online Data Backup & Protection is a secure, automated service that safeguards critical BAS data. It replaces manual backups with scheduled, cloud-based storage of graphics, databases, reports, and user data, ensuring continuous availability and fast recovery. The result is greater system resilience, reduced downtime risk, and full transparency into your backup status.
