DiskAgent accomplishes this by encrypting all backed-up data en route to and within the Amazon S3 and EC2 environments.

Moreover, the safeguards DiskAgent provides directly address the HIPAA contingency planning requirement with its offering of disaster recovery and remote delete capability, which keeps patient data secure in the event of hardware failure or theft.
