Our IT administrators carry laptops that allow them to ensure business continuity in the event of a disaster. The company’s data security policies prohibit corporate data from residing on non-company’s hardware.

Loss of laptops leads to financial losses. Therefore, we need to create a highly secure disaster recovery and business resumption solution for IT administrators in a highly mobile form factor.

Please suggest a solution.

I also travel a lot, between different clients and keep a lot of info in my toolbox/laptop. I've looked into this some time ago, because I was also worried about loss of data. And found some great products that do custom backups. I would suggest looking into this. Personally I'm using Acronis True Image Home to backup to an alternate server. It worked for me... But look into it and see what works for you and your company.

You can use Linux-based system into which you install a VPN client and a Remote Desktop Client with a shortcut to a virtual desktop at the disaster recovery site. And then administrators just distribute this image to authorized personnel on encrypted USB memory disks which provides security against misappropriation in the event of loss or theft through remote revocation.

Refer some vendor that uses “Predictive Fetch Technology” containing secure VPN client to users. Users can run VM on any x86 hosts and can thereby establish a secure VPN connection to perform mission-critical IT administrative tasks.

That is fine, but also suggest any such vendor that is providing such similar offerings. The presence of large number of vendors in the market today makes it difficult to choose the correct one that meets the requirements as well as cost effective too.

Well, you can adopt MokaFive Live PCs with the help of which administrators could isolate sensitive corporate data from any x86 host in the event of disaster, whether a home computer or private computer.

You can visit their website at:

Doing so, administrators can ensure business continuity over secure remote virtual connections via a highly portable, encrypted USB form factor with no risk of corporate data loss or leakage in the event of a disaster.

I fully agree with the experiences being shared for MokaFive. It is really proving itself in the market today.

In the event of a disaster the recovery, the team members could connect to the secure remote site’s virtual desktops from any PC with a broadband Internet connection. Sensitive corporate data never leaves the secure data zone and all access is logged.

Enterprise USB flash drives (UFD) enable administrators to remotely revoke LivePC images in the event of loss. Sensitive corporate data never leaves the secure data zone and all access is logged.

Our data remains on our secure servers yet access is convenient enough for regular use. This allows us to exercise our Business Continuity Plans more often and at less cost ensuring we are always prepared. This is a perfect example of how we can use virtualization technology to solve real problems.
