Aircel has launched new Mobile backup solution which enables customers to backup contacts and other essential data like messages, images, videos, audios and other files to the cloud storage and use it on multiple devices.

Aircel says that the service is free of cost and users can backup up to 2GB storage space. However, data chargers for taking backup and accessing the backup files will be applicable. For security, the company says that it is integrated with Mobile Connect PIN-based Authentication which provides multi-factor authentication.

The service has been developed on the company’s mobile app platform, and the service is only available for Android at the moment but will be made available to iOS and Windows platforms as well in the future.

Anupam Vasudev, Chief Marketing Officer, Aircelsaid:

Aircel continuing with its promise of providing extra value is delighted to launch this exclusive service for its customers. The Aircel Backup app offers our customersthe ease of storing all their important information on the cloud with the luxury of accessing that information across multiple devices. This takes care of the customer concern of freeing up memory space on their phones besides keeping their data safe. Moreover the data backup is free of charge and is accessible anytime anywhere.

Using Mobile Connect authentication, Aircel has taken a step ahead to address users’ personal data privacy using industry best practices. It gives users peace of mind as cloud storage access is only possible with 2-factor authentication. It is the telco’s infrastructure which authenticates the user rather than any user name and password or social media logins.
