Hi All,

I would like to know how everyone may be handling off-site backups. The
days of someone taking a tape home is not a best practice and just seems
wrong.
I'm talking about sensitive data that is critical to school operations
such as constituent, student, and financial information. The problem
with
just picking an offsite storage location or person, is the private and
sensitive data that is contained in these backups.

I'd like to know if someone has come up with an inexpensive, secure way
of handling this.
