HelixSOHO's Technical Features:

Encryption - HelixSOHO employs U.S. Government grade encryption to ensure maximum privacy and security of all data being sent to the data centers. During an account registration, a customer chooses a unique encryption key that is private to them. This key is the only way to restore and decrypt your files.

Block Differential - HelixSOHO backup software uses Block Differential file comparison, which backs up only the changed portions of a file, rather than the whole file. This results in reducing average backup sessions on even the slowest connections to just minutes.

Compression - All data is compressed before it is sent to the data centers thus optimizeing transmission time and storage space.

Automatic File Selection - HelixSOHO backup software can automatically select all just your data files or any combination of files including your entire operating system and applications, or your system registries, or system state. HelixSOHO may be told to skip non-essential files such as temporary internet files or log files. Skipping non-essential fils maintains network efficiency, reduces the size of your backup set, and saves you money.

Auto-Sense Backup - HelixSOHO knows if you miss a scheduled backup and will automatically initiate or resume a backup whenever a network connection is detected. The result ; backups are performed every time the backup software accesses the Internet.

Point-and-Click Restore - File restoration can be done 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and is fully automated.
