100 Financial Institutions Rely on Centurion Enterprise-Level Recovery from ProfitStars

MONETT, Mo., July 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (NASDAQ:JKHY) is a leading provider of technology solutions and payment processing services primarily for the financial services industry. Its ProfitStars^® division announced today the strong adoption of Centurion Enterprise-Level Recovery^™, a solution that secures Windows^®-based core systems, software, and data assets for financial institutions that have their servers in-house. More than 100 banks and credit unions have implemented the service for rapid data recovery and improved security.

With the Centurion Enterprise-Level Recovery system, financial institutions are able to maintain the integrity of core and third-party systems in the event of a catastrophe or power loss. The cloud-based solution encrypts data and stores it in Jack Henry & Associates' secure data center facility.

Jonah LaFollette, vice president of information technology at Northridge, Calif.-based Matadors Community Credit Union, shared, "Centurion Enterprise-Level Recovery provides our credit union with a robust disaster recovery solution in a secure location. In the event of a disaster, the cloud-based solution would help ensure a rapid recovery of both Windows and Symitar core servers. Jack Henry's expertise in managing and testing our disaster recovery plan is invaluable."  

The solution's cloud-based technology allows for data backups to occur at more frequent intervals – an improvement over traditional nightly backups. Data can be recovered promptly, ranging from minutes to hours per server, providing a significant reduction in most recovery time objectives.

Russ Bernthal, president of ProfitStars, added, "We are experiencing significant demand for Centurion Enterprise-Level Recovery as financial institutions realize the value of outsourcing their disaster recovery plans. Jack Henry & Associates is a trusted partner with the infrastructure and expertise to execute strategic, cost efficient and reliable plans. No one wants a worst case scenario, but should a disaster arise, it is comforting to know that your business operations are protected by best-in-class facilities and technology and supported by skilled staff with extensive financial institution experience."
