Off-Site Data Protection

Iron Mountain Record Management Company provides Kennesaw State University with off-site data protection services. This includes a weekly rotation program of computer back up tapes from Administrative Computing Services, Information Technology Services, and Online Learning Services.

Management of back up tapes stored and rotated with Iron Mountain is provided by SecureSync.

EACH WEEK, PARTICIPANTS WILL NEED TO DO THE FOLLOWING TO PROCESS AND SEND OFF CONTAINERS TO IRON MOUNTAIN

1. After logging in to SecureSync, go to "Process Media" tab.

2. Scroll down to "Container Pick-Up."

3. In this screen, check the container ID number(s) you will use for that day. Enter the return date in which you want the containers to cycle back to you, and enter a description of the contents of each container.

4. Click "Submit" button at bottom right of page.

5. Click "Prepare Pick Up Report." This is a PDF file that you will need to open and print 2 copies. Leave the copies with the closed containers. The Iron Mountain driver will sign a copy that he will leave for you; he will take the other with him.
