From LTO.org:
LTO technology can help optimize both data backup and archive. Here’s how:
- Backups and archives stored on LTO tape provide low-cost, high-performance and high capacity data storage
- Information on tape is inherently offline, protecting data from ransomware and cyber-attack
- Tapes can be easily copied for offsite storage, providing an additional layer of protection against primary site disasters
- Archives on LTO tape can be stored for up to 30 years or more at low cost
- LTO tape supports Linear Tape File System (LTFS) for intuitive, fast access
- LTO technology provides highly-secure storage with encryption and WORM support
