Offline Secure Storage® (#OSS)

24/7 on-demand access

Offline does not have to mean inconvenient. A Vault is physically disconnected by default, and you can open an authorised session at any hour without booking a window or waiting for an operator.

  • No scheduled window

01Why it matters

Protection you cannot use gets worked around

Offline archives usually fail on convenience. If retrieval takes a ticket, a courier or a scheduled window, people quietly keep a second copy somewhere reachable, and that copy is what gets breached.

No waiting for a window

An incident, an audit request or a client deadline does not arrive during office hours. Access does not depend on one.

Usable like any drive

Upload, organise, search and retrieve through File Manager in the browser during the session. No specialist software to install.

No shadow copies

When the protected copy is genuinely reachable, there is no reason to keep a convenient unprotected duplicate elsewhere.

02How it works

What happens when you need your files

Availability is continuous. The network route is not.

01

Start the session out of band

The request to open your Vault travels outside the normal network path, so nothing on the internet can begin a session for you.

02

Authenticate

Identity-locked credentials and multi-factor authentication are required before any route exists to enable.

03

The physical route is enabled

The connection to your dedicated hardware is made for this session only, in milliseconds rather than minutes.

04

Work in File Manager

Two-way access for the length of the session: upload, search, download and share selected files.

05

Close it and it goes offline

End the session, or let it expire, and the hardware is physically disconnected again with no route left waiting.

03The detail

What on-demand access includes

The same model applies across 2TB, 4TB and 8TB Vaults.

Immediate sessions

No queue, no operator and no ticket. Authorisation is the only step between you and your files.

Out-of-band start

Sessions begin from your registered mobile, separate from the data path, so the control route is not reachable from the internet.

Time-boxed by design

A session lasts as long as the work needs, then closes. Availability is continuous; exposure is not.

Browser-based working

File Manager and Offline Secure Share are available inside the session on any supported device.

Every session logged

Who opened a session, when and what was done is retained, which is what an auditor or insurer asks for.

LUV is the alternative

Where records are consulted rarely, LUV offers one nominated day each week at a lower price point.

05FAQ

Questions

Does 24/7 mean my Vault is always connected?

No. The Vault is physically disconnected by default. On-demand means you can authorise a session at any time, not that a route is permanently open.

How long does it take to reach my files?

Seconds. Once you authenticate, the physical route is enabled and File Manager opens in the browser.

Is there a limit on sessions?

Vault is designed for regular working use, with no scheduled window and no session booking.

What is the difference between Vault and LUV?

Vault provides 24/7 on-demand access from 2TB upwards. LUV is the low-use product with one nominated access day each week inside a 12-hour window.

Do I need software installed?

No. Access is through the browser, so a managed laptop or a borrowed machine both work within your policy.

Can several people have access?

Business instances support named users with their own verified identities and their own logged sessions. Vault Buddy is a separate succession route rather than routine shared access.

What happens if my session drops?

The route closes and the hardware returns to being disconnected. You simply authorise a new session.

Can I move from LUV to 24/7 access?

Yes. Existing data is migrated when you upgrade from LUV to a Vault.
