Case Study: Georgia Tech Athletics Department achieves backup time savings and 100% compliance with Asigra

Georgia Tech Athletics Department Upgrades to Asigra, Resulting in Backup Time Savings and Perfect Compliance Ratings

Georgia Tech Athletics Department, which supports nearly 600 users across multiple file, email, ticketing and accounting systems for its Division I sports programs, faced unreliable tape-based backups that caused a data loss during the Olympics and required burdensome manual tape management and onsite storage. The department needed a more reliable, offsite, and scalable solution to protect critical game, administrative and operational data and to free up IT staff time.

Working with RestorePoint, Georgia Tech deployed an agentless, hybrid cloud backup powered by Asigra, providing centralized, scalable backups with AES-256 encryption and policy-based lifecycle management. The migration eliminated onsite tapes, sped recoveries, and reduced IT workload—delivering secure offsite storage and consistent results, including perfect annual compliance ratings for more than eight years.
