ShadowServerTM Your Server’s First Line of
Defense.
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - August 25, 2004 – ShadowStor Inc., a
provider of innovative and non-intrusive security, data
protection, and disaster prevention solutions for PCs and
servers, announced the immediate availability of ShadowServer.
ShadowServer provides non-restrictive, easy to use server
protection for Windows NT, 2000 and 2003 servers. ShadowServer
is the best way to prevent malicious, intrusive or unwanted
changes from being made to a server.
ShadowServer is your first line of defense for application
servers recovering from website defacing, viruses, worms, or
any other malicious or unwanted server changes. Avoid server
downtime that’s required to re-install the operating system,
restore from an image or recover from a tape backup. At
anytime, authorized users can save changes to the system, save
selected files and folders or simply discard all changes and
return the server to its original state. Server recovery takes
as long as a simple reboot.
ShadowStor uses a unique method called
ShadowMode to ensure servers and PCs are protected. By placing
servers in ShadowMode with ShadowServer, IT organizations can
feel confident systems are going to be protected no matter
what happens. ShadowMode tracks each system change and
redirects them to the managed free space on the disk. These
system changes can be permanently saved to disk, or completely
discarded. With ShadowMode, there is no need to specify
regions on disk for backup or use BIOS functions to reserve
space for OS images. ShadowMode is the most efficient and
intelligent way to protect servers and PCs from system
downtime. ShadowServer helps:
- Reduce Total Cost of Ownership
- Reduce the TCO for managing and maintaining
your servers by simply rolling the system back to a
clean state.
- Improve System Performance -
Configure your servers ONCE and run in that optimal
state at all times. No need to spend time troubleshooting
system performance issues.
- Maximize System Uptime -
Maximize server uptime by instantly undoing accidental or
malicious changes to your servers. Avoid the costs
associated with server downtime.
- Improve System Security -
Prevent downtime and system damage due to virus and worm
outbreaks. Avoid the virus or worm from ever being written
to the server.
- Increase Stability - Safely
test updates, service packs, new applications and
patches before permanently saving changes to your server.
- Save Time - IT budgets are
shrinking and personnel numbers are being reduced, so
optimal use of resources is critical. Quickly recover
servers when problems occur. Create a scheduled task
eliminating the need to touch each server to recover them to
a clean state. Reduce the need to reinstall the operating
system, recover from an image or tape backup.
