 Questions
about Encryption and Security

Q: How secure is my data?
A. Your data will be extremely secure. Your data
is encrypted before it leaves your computer with an Encryption Key that
only you have. The data is then encrypted again for its transit over
the Internet. Your files are then stored, in encrypted form, on multiple
servers in high security facilities. Because of the encryption, even
Big G Technologies personnel cannot access your data
Q: What kind of encryption is used?
A. DidUBackUp encrypts each file using 256-bit AES
encryption technology. This encryption technology, used by the U.S.
government and military is even more secure than the 128-bit encryption
methods that are typically used for online banking. Each file is encrypted
before it leaves your system and then remains encrypted on the Big G Technologies
servers, providing complete privacy for your data. There is no way for
even Big G Technologies personnel to access your files, because only you have
your unique Encryption Key.
In addition, the DidUBackUp software communicates with the
Big G Technologies servers using SSL (Secure Socket Layers) technology. This is
the same encryption technology used by Internet browsers when a user
enters a secured site. As a result, your data is encrypted twice. It
is encrypted at all times using the 256-bit AES encryption, and it is
encrypted again while it’s being sent over the Internet.
Q: Can anybody else access my files?
A. No. Your data is encrypted before it leaves
your computer and is sent to the Big G Technologies servers, where it remains
encrypted. Because only you have your Encryption Key, only you can access
your files.
Q: Where is my data stored?
A. Your data is stored on state-of-the-art file
servers in two secure data centers located hundreds of miles apart.
All of your data is stored in both locations. Each facility has
advanced security features such as biometric controlled access, 24/7
monitoring, backup generators and redundant connections to the Internet.
