Benefits of technology

The invention is about a system for protecting and managing electronic information. It aims to efficiently protect and manage information so that it can be recovered even in between scheduled backups. The invention includes components such as an interceptor, a distributor, and a journal engine. The interceptor can monitor input / output from applications and capture information before writing to storage. The system can be used in various configurations such as a host machine, a SAN, or a NAS. The technical effects of the invention include improved information protection and management, efficient data recovery, and better information management.

Problems solved by technology

A potential problem with the traditional backup system is that if a user needs to recover data, the data that was created after the last backup will typically be lost.
