Introduction to Mozy
Article Reference ID: 000273236
Mozy provides remote backup and file management services for Internet-connected devices.
Your computer, laptop, and smartphone hold your most important files, including email, photos, music, financials, and business contacts. Mozy protects your files by automatically backing up your data in our cloud-based data centers. If disaster strikes, or whenever you choose, you can restore any lost files quickly and easily.
Mozy is easy to set up. You simply download and install Mozy onto your computer. Mozy is a small software program that works quietly in the background. When your computer is idle, and at regular intervals, the program automatically backs up new and changed files. You choose when, and how often, the backup program will run and which files to include in the backup.
As part of the backup process, each file is encrypted before being sent over the Internet and remains encrypted in the data center. You are the only person who can decrypt them ensuring your files are protected at all times.
