Inventory and identification
We record media, labels, locations, and responsible parties.
Storage media management and custody
Physical management and tracking of tapes and other storage media throughout their use lifecycle.
A clear scope for your project
We select the necessary activities and define responsibilities and deliverables before starting.
Collection and delivery
We organize transfers between facilities and authorized destinations.
Chain of custody
We document who releases, receives, and holds each storage medium.
Physical safekeeping
We coordinate storage at the agreed-upon facilities and with the agreed-upon providers.
Media rotation
We manage incoming and outgoing media according to the defined schedule.
Media retrieval
We locate and coordinate delivery of the media needed for a restore.
Retirement and erasure
We route retired media for authorized erasure or disposal within scope.
Managing physical media is different from performing backups or restores; those activities are defined with Managed Services.
