Server Outage or File Corruption? AnySecura’s Multi-Layer DR Protects Your Confidential Documents

Encrypting confidential documents is a top priority for many enterprises. But encryption is only the first step—sudden network drops, unexpected server failures, or damaged files can make encrypted documents inaccessible, cause data loss, and even halt business operations.

That’s why you need disaster recovery as well as encryption. AnySecura’s Document Encryption System combines active–standby high availability, network DR, and document backups to deliver an integrated encryption + DR solution that prevents leaks and safeguards against mishaps—so your data stays safe and your business stays running.

Active–Standby HA: Eliminate Single Points of Failure and Keep Encryption Online

A common concern is a server outage due to power, network, or hardware issues that paralyzes the encryption service and blocks normal file use. AnySecura removes single points of failure with a primary/secondary server model plus optional standby servers.

• Seamless failover: Both the application server and database support HA. If the primary fails, the secondary automatically takes over. End users are unaffected; encryption and decryption continue uninterrupted. Additional standby nodes add another layer of assurance.
• Scale to large fleets: With a primary + relay distributed architecture, even environments with 100,000+ endpoints remain responsive and easy to manage.
• Global coverage: A mix of on-prem relays and cloud relays lets worldwide branches connect to the same system, keeping encryption and DR policies consistent across regions.

Predefined DR Grace Period: Handle Extreme Disconnects Without Losing Control

If both primary and secondary servers fail or the network is completely down, the client won’t go “out of control.” AnySecura’s configurable grace period ensures clients continue to enforce encryption policies while offline.

Admins set the duration based on business needs. During this window, employees can still open and edit protected files even without server connectivity—maintaining both data security and business continuity.

Document Backup Management: Two-Way Protection and Assured Recovery

Encryption prevents leakage but not loss or corruption. AnySecura adds flexible document backup for a second line of defense around critical data.

• Custom backup policies: Choose plaintext or ciphertext backups, set frequency, and target on-prem or cloud storage—balancing security with convenience.
• Fast, lossless recovery: In cases of accidental deletion, corruption, or device failure, quickly restore original files from backups to minimize impact.
• Closed-loop protection: From encryption and real-time control to backup and restore, AnySecura delivers full-lifecycle protection so confidential documents are safeguarded in every scenario.

Facing network outages, server failures, and file loss, AnySecura’s Document Encryption System goes beyond "just encryption". With active–standby HA for continuous service, a grace period for extreme disconnects, and document backups to prevent data loss, it builds a multi-layered security and resilience shield for your most sensitive documents.
