Enveloc Helps with Gramm-Leach Bliley Backup Compliance

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) of 1999 is designed to protect private information of individuals interacting with various financial institutions such as banks, credit unions, and insurance companies as well as firms doing mortgage lending, insurance sales, investment advice, credit card activities, securities brokerage activities, and tax preparation services.

To be compliant, financial institutions must provide reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the customer's information from unauthorized disclosure, alteration, or deletion. The regulations also require organizations to take reasonable steps to engage and utilize only services providers that are capable of safeguarding the protected customer information.

Enveloc’s backup products provide turnkey solutions to enable financial service firms to become GLBA compliance without breaking your back or your bank.

Enveloc provides the following features critical to GLBA compliance:

  • Backup data is encrypted using 256-bit AES encryption before transmission and is always maintained in encrypted state until restored to client servers.
  • Data access is restricted to authorized personnel with a self created encryption passphrase only known to the user ( not even Enveloc has a copy).
  • Fully automated backups scheduled by the user and daily verification and notification that every backup has completed successfully
  • Data is stored offsite on redundant, high security class-A data Network Operation Centers and data can be restored to any location, 24/7.
  • Our ‘Always Live’, US-based customer service is available around the clock and daily backup audits and confirmation e-mails with summary transfer logs ensure the integrity of every single data backup set to provide a clear audit trail, if necessary.
