Goes Green with Cloud Computing Sept.2009 http://www.dvsnews.com/?p=48 http://www.dvsnews.com/?p=48#comments Wed, 09 Sep 2009 16:26:05 +0000 sandy.lipman@dvssoft.com http://www.dvsnews.com/?p=48 The latest buzz word in computing is the CLOUD. We at DVS Soft Ltd. are proud to be one of the first software companies, the first in Wales, with our own ‘cloud’ enabling our secure online backup to perform efficiently and reduce our carbon footprint.

Having recently teamed up with Kaspersky Lab by bundling the domestic version of our online backup software with their anti-virus product which is now on sale in Comet stores throughout the UK, DVS Soft Ltd. is Wales’ flag ship in the global online backup software market.

Not just relevant to computer techs, we all use our computers in everyday scenarios, from domestic to business, to shop, sell, educate and email. Understanding how our computers work is secondary to actually expecting them to perform efficiently. With cloud computing we are able to minimise resources and maximise the agility of the system to cope with varying demands in an ecologically responsible way.

When the demand is low servers in the ‘cloud’ are automatically powered to standby. When extra resources are needed servers in the ‘cloud’ are automatically brought on line as required, therefore reducing our carbon footprint and saving energy.

We are very excited to have developed the ‘DVS Cloud’ for the benefit of our customers, and will continue in our endeavour to be able to offer them the latest technology in the greenest way possible and thank Cardiff City Council Strategy and Enterprise for their interest and ongoing support.

Kaspersky Lab announces new partnership with DVS Soft Ltd
Partnership offers latest antivirus technology bundled with backup solutions at Comet stores

Didcot, July 2009 – Kaspersky Lab announces a new partnership with DVS Soft Ltd to supply Kaspersky® Internet Security 2010 and DVS Backup as a bundled package through Comet stores in the UK. The combination of both products is designed to offer maximum protection against malicious Cybercrime attacks and accidental data loss.

Kaspersky® Internet Security 2010, which was launched on 1st July, is the brand new version of Kaspersky Lab’s flagship consumer security product and offers a number of exciting new features including Safe Run (a ‘sandbox’ function that allows software to be downloaded and tested in a quarantined environment) and URL Advisor (which provides a visible indicator if a web site they are about to enter is safe, dangerous or suspicious). It is based on the very latest developments in security technologies and offers the most comprehensive protection.

Malcolm Tuck, Managing Director of Kaspersky Lab UK, commented: “We are delighted to be working with DVS Soft. It is an ideal partnership as DVS Backup dovetails well with Kaspersky® Internet Security 2010 to offer consumers protection from the two biggest causes of data loss – Cybercrime attacks and accidental loss.”

DVS Soft Ltd launched its secure, automated, online backup solutions for all types and size of business, earlier this year. The Home Edition is now on sale with Kaspersky® Internet Security 2010 at retail store Comet, throughout the UK.

Bill Mccormick, Managing Director of the DVS group said: “It is a great boost to be able to be part of something positive in business today, with ongoing potential. Having a partnership with a major company, Kaspersky Lab, significantly increases our visibility in the market place. Kaspersky Lab has tested our backup solution and there is clearly a mutual benefit to both companies and customers in selling both products as a bundle.”

David Sweet, founder and Technical Director of the DVS group, said “Staying ahead in the software industry takes courage, belief and backing by good investors, so that we can keep developing products specifically designed to meet our customer’s needs. Kaspersky Lab realized the need and marketability of our ‘Set it, Save it, Forget it’ user friendly online backup, packaged with its own product making this a very exciting project. I must also thank Cardiff City Council Business and Development for their ongoing support.”
