PROVIDENCE, RI, September 13, 2011 (Press-News.org) At a time when more and more critical data is migrating onto personal and business computers, Mickey Pazienza learned just how vulnerable that data could be. Pazienza, a 16-year veteran of the IT sector was approached by a good friend whose computer had been crashed by a destructive virus. The computer contained the last pictures of the woman's young daughter who had recently died of leukemia. While the photos were recovered, the threat of losing such irreplaceable data inspired Mickey to launch Treasure Backup, a company that provides online data backup services for individuals and small businesses.
Online backup is the process of moving a copy of critical data from one computer to another to provide safe offsite data storage. It is increasingly being used as an alternative to expensive tape drives and unsecured CDs and memory sticks. Studies show that only 5-15% of PC users regularly back up their data, leaving a vast majority of business and personal data at risk in the event of a data loss occurrence, such as a fire, stolen laptop, computer virus or even the everyday mistake of accidentally deleting important files.
"There is so much crucial data that is simply unprotected," said Pazienza, "and it's tragic when that data is lost and cannot be recovered. Business owners and individuals don't realize how much they treasure their photos, email, business documents, intellectual property, invoices, contact lists, and other data files until they're gone."
According to the Contingency Planning Research & Strategic Research Corporation, 43% of businesses that experience a massive data loss event never reopen. Treasure Backup's mission is to prevent this from ever happening. Using a client's Internet connection, Treasure Backup's software automatically backs up the client's data on a daily basis. The encrypted data is stored on Treasure Backup's secure servers. Using a personalized encryption key, clients are able to access and restore their data at any time.
Treasure Backup's thorough encryption procedure makes the company HIPPA-compliant, meaning that it is authorized to back up medical and health records for any organization required to comply with HIPPA procedures.
For a limited time, the company is offering an individual data storage plan starting at $9.95/mo and a small business data store plan for $25.00/mo (clients pay an additional small monthly fee based on disk space usage). Treasure Backup services are available throughout the US with on-site assistance and management available in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

Treasure Backup is dedicated to leveraging emerging online data backup and recovery technologies to provide the highest level of quality solutions, customer service, and security.

Each client's solution assists in the preservation of data integrity, minimizes downtime, and maximizes system usage and efficiency for their business.

Dangers of exposure to 'white' light
2011-09-13
Exposure to the light of white LED bulbs, it turns out, suppresses melatonin 5 times more than exposure to the light of High Pressure Sodium bulbs that give off an orange-yellow light. "Just as there are regulations and standards for 'classic' pollutants, there should also be regulations and rules for the pollution stemming from artificial light at night," says Prof. Abraham Haim of the University of Haifa.
"White" light bulbs that emit light at shorter wavelengths are greater suppressors of the body's production of melatonin than bulbs emitting orange-yellow light, ...

Why Patients Don't Disclose Depression to Their Physicians

In a survey of 1,054 adults, 43 percent of patients reported one or more reasons for not talking to a primary care physician about their depression, with the most frequently cited reason being concern the physician would recommend antidepressants (23 percent). Other barriers reported by patients include the belief it is not the primary care physician's job to deal with emotional issues (16 ...
Women who inherit BRCA gene mutations develop cancer earlier than their ancestors
2011-09-13
A new analysis has found that women who develop certain hereditary cancers develop them at earlier ages than women in the previous generation. Published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, the results point to the importance of tracking younger ages of cancer diagnosis to determine when to provide counseling, screening, and treatment services.
Women who have mutations in the BRCA genes have a high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancers at young ages. Mutations in these genes are often inherited, so multiple family members ...
OAI: Mo. Auto Insurance Cos. Will See Less Red Tape for Mobile Claims Centers
2011-09-13
Missourians could have an easier time filing damage claims on their inexpensive auto insurance and other policies the next time a natural disaster strikes that state.
That's because a new state law prohibits towns and cities from forcing coverage providers to obtain business licenses before they can set up emergency claim-processing centers to serve customers in storm-damaged areas.
State officials say that type of bureaucratic holdup happened on multiple occasions this year in Missouri, where residents struggled with several tornadoes, including one in the city ...
