Iron Mountain has announced the launch of its PC data protection and archiving software as a service (SaaS) solutions in South Africa. Through Iron Mountain Digital's in-country distributor Channel Data and its network of reseller partners, South African businesses now have access to Iron Mountain's PC data protection and archiving solutions including: Connected Backup for PC, DataDefense, Active Archiving Service for Email, and Continuity Service for Email.

"In South Africa, bandwidth is expensive and therefore limited. A key benefit of the Iron Mountain Digital solutions is their ability to work over low-bandwidth connections. This was a key technical consideration when introducing these services to the local market via Channel Data and its resellers," said David Kubick, vice president of Worldwide Alliances, Iron Mountain Digital, the technology arm of Iron Mountain. "Through our partnership, Channel Data provides a frontline understanding of South African market conditions, the ability to support customers locally, and knowledge of the international and domestic statutes and regulations governing data and privacy protection."
