Release date: May 2005
New York - DataFort Corp., a provider of managed offsite data backup, has signed an ISP distributor agreement with YourNetPlus.com, one of the largest wholesale ISP aggregators in the United States. The deal will be effective June 1st.

PCFort, sold and marketed by New York City-based DataFort Corp., is an offsite data backup service that provides SOHO businesses and consumers with access to the same level of automated, secure offsite backup technology used by large multinational corporations and financial institutions. PCFort is sold as a turnkey solution to ISPs, which can then offer the service to their small and medium sized office customers. PCFort’s end-to-end solution includes software, web-based customer management tools and comprehensive customer support.

YourNetPlus.com, headquartered in Monroe, New York, will offer PCFort’s services to its subscribers under the name of IntelaVault (www.IntelaVault.com).

“With PCFort, our partners can easily offer a high-quality, automated backup service to their customers at a reasonable price,” said Marcie Terman, chief operating officer of DataFort Corp. “PCFort is a great way to automatically back up important data stored on your computer, instead of relying on manual backup procedures via CDs or tapes.”

YourNetPlus.com customers will be able to download the user-friendly PCFort’s pre-configured software onto their computers and follow simple installation instructions. PCFort is preset to backup the ‘My Documents’ folder, but customers can refine their selections under the ‘setup’ menu. The user then selects a backup schedule or opts to initiate backups whenever connected to the Internet, as in the case of laptop users on the road.
