PDTL — Prius Data Technologies Ltd

Cloud backup & restore

Your files. Protected. Available when you need them.

PDTL backs up the folders you choose to private cloud storage, and brings them back when something goes wrong. No cloud account of your own to set up, and nothing to administer.

Why PDTL

Four things we take seriously

Backup software earns trust by being unremarkable: it works, it stays out of the way, and it is there on the day you need it.

Simple

Backup without the hassle

  • Choose the folders that matter and PDTL protects them
  • Backup sets group what belongs together
  • Status you can read at a glance
  • Restore is finding a file and asking for it back
  • No cloud infrastructure of your own to set up or run

Private and discreet

Your data stays yours

  • Every account's data is separated from every other account's
  • The application never holds storage credentials
  • Access is brokered by an authenticated server-side service
  • Storage is private — nothing is in a public bucket
  • Your files are never listed or served to anyone else

Protected by modern technology

Security that is on by default

  • Two-factor authentication is required, not optional
  • Encrypted in transit with TLS
  • Server-side encryption at rest
  • Row-level database rules enforce account separation
  • Transfer permission is granted per file and expires in minutes

Affordable

Cloud protection without enterprise complexity

  • A subscription with a defined storage allowance
  • Straightforward capacity, no metering surprises
  • Suited to individuals and to businesses
  • You pay for PDTL, not for your own cloud account

How it works

Three steps, then it looks after itself

  1. 01

    Choose

    Pick the folders PDTL should look after. Group them into backup sets that make sense to you.

  2. 02

    Protect

    PDTL sends new and changed files to your private cloud storage. Files it already holds are left alone.

  3. 03

    Restore

    Find what you need and bring it back — to the same machine or to a new one you have signed in on.

Security

Built to protect data without complicating your life

You should not have to understand any of this to be safe. It is here because some people want to know, and because we think you are entitled to.

  1. 1

    Your device

    The PDTL application reads only the folders you chose. It holds no storage credentials of any kind.

  2. 2

    Your PDTL account

    Sign-in is protected by a password and an authenticator code. Nothing proceeds until both are satisfied.

  3. 3

    The PDTL broker

    A server-side service checks who you are and what your subscription allows, then authorises one file at a time.

  4. 4

    Private cloud storage

    Files are written to private object storage, encrypted at rest, and separated from every other customer.

What that means in practice

Encrypted in transit
Every transfer uses TLS.
Encrypted at rest
Server-side encryption is applied by the storage provider.
Two-factor by default
An authenticator code is required at every sign-in.
Account separation
Database rules scope every row to the account that owns it.
Short-lived authorisation
Permission to move a file expires within minutes.
No public exposure
Storage is private; nothing is browsable from the internet.

PDTL does not offer zero-knowledge or end-to-end encryption. Your files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is restricted to your account — but we are able to restore your data, which a zero-knowledge service could not do.

The application

Everything in one window

PDTL for Windows. What you are looking at is the application itself, not a mock-up.

And on your phone

PDTL for iPhone shows the same account: what is protected, how much storage you are using, and what has run recently. The heavy lifting stays on your computer, where your files are.

The iPhone application is in development and is not yet on the App Store.

Two separate things

Your PDTL cloud storage allowance is the space your backups occupy on our servers. A PDTL pendrive is a physical device you keep. They are separate benefits: the capacity printed on a pendrive is not your cloud allowance, and filling one does not affect the other.

Who it is for

The same product, whatever you are protecting

Individuals and families

Photographs, documents, years of things you would not think about until they were gone. Choose the folders once and PDTL keeps them safe from then on.

  • Protect a laptop and a desktop on one account
  • Get a file back without getting anyone to help you
  • Restore onto a new computer after a failure

Businesses

Client records, accounts, project archives. Backup that a small business can run without an IT department, and that an IT department will not object to.

  • Several machines protected under one company account
  • See which devices are protected and when they last ran
  • No cloud contract, console or credentials of your own

Questions

Frequently asked

What can PDTL back up?

Any folders you choose on a computer running PDTL — documents, photographs, project files, archives. You group them into backup sets and PDTL protects everything inside them.

Where is my data stored?

In private cloud object storage operated on our behalf, encrypted in transit and at rest. Nothing is stored in a publicly accessible location, and your data is separated from every other customer's.

Can individuals use PDTL?

Yes. PDTL was built to be usable without any technical knowledge, and works exactly the same for one laptop as for a company.

Can businesses use PDTL?

Yes. Several devices can be protected under one company account, and you can see which of them are protected and when each last ran.

Can I restore files to another computer?

Yes. Install PDTL on the other machine, sign in to the same account, and what PDTL holds for you is available to restore there.

Does PDTL require my own cloud account?

No. There is no AWS, Azure or Google account to create, and no storage contract to sign. The subscription covers the storage.

How is my account protected?

With a password and a second factor from an authenticator app. Two-factor authentication is required rather than optional, and PDTL will not open until it has been completed.

What happens when I reach my storage allowance?

PDTL tells you before a backup would exceed it, and that backup does not run. Nothing already protected is deleted. You can free up space or move to a larger plan.

Is PDTL available for Windows?

The Windows application is built and working. The public installer is not yet published — the download button here will go live the moment it is.

Is PDTL available for iPhone?

Not yet. The iPhone application is in development and is not on the App Store.
