DUBLIN, Ohio, Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — More small to mid-sized businesses than ever will now be able to trust in the security of their private data. With the acquisition of 3X Systems, Trustyd is expanding its role in the rapidly growing private data security market.

“For the small business owner, rapid recovery of critical private data is crucial for day-to-day operations,” said Trustyd CEO Matthew Wald. “They must be able to rely on secure remote backup to accomplish that. 3X Systems has always provided the most secure and cost-effective solutions on the market. As Trustyd, we will continue to increase the value of each business’ ongoing investment in those solutions.”

3X Systems’ remote backup appliances (RBAs) set a new standard in the backup and recovery market, earning recognitions from CRN as a 2010 Top 20 Coolest Cloud Storage Vendor, a 2011 Top 100 Cloud Computing Vendor, and most recently, a 2012 Emerging Vendor.

“We’re proud of our turnkey appliances,” said Trustyd CTO Dan Shinton. “We’ve always emphasized the remote off-site deployment of our portable RBA and its application for disaster recovery scenarios. We tailor world-class large business technology to smaller business operations – providing the ease-of-use and cost-effectiveness that are essential for smaller business operations.”

Trustyd partners with local IT service providers to deliver disaster recovery solutions to businesses that lack idle IT resources. This capability includes immediate, automatic backup of traveling laptops, as well as traditional on-premise servers, desktops, databases and applications. “We have been building private clouds for these businesses with our IT channel partners as the global industry has just now evolved to understand the necessity of private cloud security,” Shinton said.

Trustyd’s expansion is already well underway, with growth in the Asia-Pacific region and increased support of existing channels throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Robert Gueth, VP of Business Development, said growth is exceeding expectations. “The addition of growth expertise to the solid 3X Systems technology team is already delivering on our investment and growth objectives. We look forward to continuing to reach more customers and increasing the already high quality of our solutions. Our continued success depends on our focus on increasing the success of our partners.”
