Platform and content protection with Business Continuity
Globecast’s Business Continuity services are comprised of disaster recovery, cyber threat protection and content protection.

Globecast creates bespoke packages for each customer, with either dedicated or shared solutions, on-premise or in the cloud.
With the increasing threat from both exposing content to the internet and also wider cyber-attacks, it’s critical today for broadcasters to both ensure hardware and site redundancy, plus content security.
