Norton Online Backup launched
Symantec is entering the cloud-based storage service market with the launch of their latest product named Norton Online Backup.
The company claims that Norton Online Backup would make it easier for users to manage up to five PCs on a home network through a single dashboard.
Symantec’s Jeff Kyle added that the service is designed to offer continuous data protection through block-based incremental backups.
The backups are made when the computer is sitting idle or as per the schedule set by the user.
Kyle said: “Because there are block-level, incremental backups, it’s much more secure in transit. It’s only taking what’s changed or new, and because of that, the backups are also fast.”
Symantec said that they are using 128-bit AES encryption to protect the data integrity while it is being transferred to their servers. The data is stored with 256-bit AES encryption on their own servers.
Norton Online Backup would charge $49 for 25GB of capacity. User can purchase additional storage capacities.
