Case Study: GulfShore Bank achieves 30-second data recovery and regulatory compliance with Asigra cloud backup

GulfShore Bank selects Cloud-Based Solution for Compliance Advantages and Speedier Recovery Over Legacy Backup Environment

GulfShore Bank, a full‑service community bank in Tampa, Florida, relied on a disk‑based backup system across two retail locations and a virtual site to protect 6–8 TB of data including SharePoint, Exchange, SQL and virtual machines. Slow, cumbersome restores that often took hours, growing regulatory compliance requirements (Dodd‑Frank, FATCA) and concerns about physical risks like storm surge drove the bank to seek a modern, more manageable recovery solution.

Working with Yotta280, GulfShore deployed Asigra-powered, agentless cloud backup in a public/hybrid configuration to protect physical and virtual servers and applications with AES‑256 encryption and FIPS 140‑2 certification. The solution cut recovery times from hours to about 30 seconds, reduced daily backup management overhead, improved scalability and long‑term retention through lifecycle management, and delivered a compliance‑ready, easier‑to‑manage data protection platform.
