Qwest Offers Personal Digital Vault

Qwest Communications is now offering its high-speed Internet customers with a free secure way to protect their most valuable digital content from hard-drive damage and computer crashes. Offering encrypted, offsite protection, the online backup service known as Qwest Personal Digital Vault™, allows users to feel a little less worried about losing valuable digital content.

To get the free 2 GB online vault space, Qwest customers can visit www.qwest.com/digital vault. Customers have the ability to access their Qwest Personal Digital Vault™ account from anywhere to get the backed-up data by entering an appropriate username and password.

Nell E. Cox, Qwest Executive Vice President of Product and IT said, “Special photos, videos and correspondence lost to a hard-drive crash, computer theft or damage means a big emotional loss. Home computers and hard drives will eventually fail, and the best use of Qwest Personal Digital Vault™ is to back up these important digital keepsakes for when that time comes.”

Features of the online backup vault include automated and customized backup scheduling, file restore and complete restore, manual settings, anytime, anywhere access, and for customers wanting to back up more than 2 GB worth of digital content, additional space is available.

With the automated and customizable backup scheduling, newer files and versions are sure to be safe with the scheduled automatic backups. In addition to the scheduling feature, with file restore and complete restore customers have the ability to access their backed-up content even if external thumb-drives, hard-drives or CDs are damaged.

For $6.99 per month, customers can sign up for 50 GB of vault space, and for just $9.99 per month, customers will receive unlimited vault space. More than 15% on monthly rates can be saved when a 12-month term is purchased with unlimited vault space.
