Commercially use of True Image 2020 Premium?

Thread solved

Hello,

can I use True Image 2020 Premium commercially from a data protection perspective (Germany)? Among other things I want to store customer data with it in the Acronis Cloud.

How is the data encrypted?

Regards,

Sebastian

The data can be encrypted with AES encryption selectable levels.

ATI 2020 has a max of 5 licensed devices for each user account. While it is classed as a home rather than business product, it is used by many small businesses. Where there are more devices business class product as Cyber Backupm12.5 May be more appropriate - it is “designed” to be used by more than 5 users. The notary function included in the Premium version of ATI suggests it is also targeting small businesses.

Several users of this forum manage ATI 2020 installations for their small business clients.

Thank you for your quick response, Ian! So compared to the business cloud, it is the full product in terms of quality of security standards?  The security of my customer data is very important, so I need to know exactly.

 

If you password protect and encrypt the backup then it can only be accessed with the password. As I understand it, the encryption is done on the local PC and there is no was Acronis can access it. That is way they warn that if you loose the password they cannot assist.

I read somewhere that the servers are also protected by physical measures. As the same cloud architecture is apparently used by the Acronis business products I would say that the data is relatively secure.

Thank you, Ian. That helped alot. In addition to that, Acronis Support mailed me:

All data centers are SSAE 16 certified. Acronis Cloud Storage can encrypt your data at the source using AES-256-bit encryption. Since only you set the password, only you can access your data!

Physical security is ensured by high fences, 24-hour security staff and video surveillance with 90-day archiving. Access authorization is controlled by biometric hand geometry scans and contactless key cards. They are equipped with UPSs and emergency diesel generators and are designed to ensure a constant power supply for 48 hours in the event of unexpected power failures. In addition, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, network and UPSs are redundant.
     
In addition, all management communication between your system and the Acronis Cloud is done through secure, SSL encrypted channels. With our cloud backup solutions, your data is protected at all times and in all aspects.
