Data protection software and appliance technology developer Arcserve is during long-term recovery from a human error that resulted in an as-of-yet-unknown number of end-user clients from the company’s StorageCraft business losing their backup data. The error happened when the company moved the StorageCraft backend operations from an internal data center to the Google Cloud Platform to add resilience to the system.
