Hie Electronics Announces Demo at Cyber Security Summit

Solution Provides Permanent Optical “Cold Storage” for Archived Data

McKinney, Texas — October 14, 2014 — Hie Electronics, a pioneer of innovation for long-term, scalable Active Archive™ data storage solutions and the manufacturer of the TeraStack® Solution and the bundled archive and backup suite, Enterprise TeraNimbus®, announces today that they will be providing a product demonstration at the First Annual North Texas Crime Commission Cyber Security Summit on October 16, 2014 at the George W. Bush Institute in Dallas.

Enterprise TeraNimbus provides customers with a departmental deployable archive and backup capability. TeraNimbus uses industry-leading archive technology in its storage architecture. The system uses patented technology for 50 to 100+ year data integrity. This same technology has previously only been available to Cloud corporate and government agency clients as an onsite offering. The TeraStack Solution is an industry leader in energy efficiency, using a hybrid data architecture that moves fixed content onto lower cost storage tiers coupled with Blu-ray media that is used to store the sleeping data, which eliminates the need for hard drives to constantly spin and consume energy.

“We are proud to be a sponsor of this cyber security summit and pleased to be able to demonstrate our bundled solution to the C-Suite executives in attendance,” said Patrick Humm, chairman and president of Hie Electronics. “Our TeraStack hardware and TeraNimbus software bundle provides a user-friendly interface to the client and allows clients needing archive and backup to have a scalable solution that provides 50 to 100+ year cold storage data integrity, but more importantly, peace of mind that their data is safe from migrations, de-duplication processes, degradation and loss,” added Humm.
