Abstract

Systems of the present inventions provide a control panel for managing multiple online data management solutions. An exemplary system may comprise a control panel hosted on at least one server communicatively coupled to a network, wherein the control panel may be accessible to a customer via a client that is also communicatively coupled to the network. The control panel may comprise a plurality of tools for managing an email security service; a managed datacenter service; an exchange hosting service; a storage, recovery, and backup service; a network security service; a customer relationship management service; a human resources management service; a financial system management service; and/or a collaboration software service.

Claims

1. A system, comprising:

a control panel hosted on at least one server communicatively coupled to a network, said control panel being accessible to a user via a client communicatively coupled to said network, said control panel further comprising a plurality of tools for managing a plurality of a software-enabled data management services comprising an email security service;

a managed datacenter service;

a shared exchange hosting service;

a storage, recovery, and backup service;

a network security service;

a customer relationship management service;

a human resources management service;

a financial system management service; and

a collaboration software service.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein said control panel comprises a webpage.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein said control panel comprises a website.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein said network is selected from the group consisting of the Internet, a public switched telephone network, a global Telex network, a computer network, an intranet, an extranet, a local-area network, a wide-area network, a wired network, and a wireless network.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein said email security service is selected from the group consisting of an email encryption service, a virus scanning service, a spam filtering service, a content filtering service, and an under attack mitigation service.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein said managed datacenter service is selected from the group consisting of a private network service, a managed firewall service, a managed load balancing service, a server management service, and a managed network access service.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein said storage, recovery, and backup service provides a user with file transfer protocol access to a plurality of data stored on at least one of said plurality of servers via a client communicatively coupled to said network.

8. The system of claim 6, wherein said storage, recovery, and backup service comprises an application programming interface providing a user with access to a plurality of data stored on at least one of said plurality of servers via a client communicatively coupled to said network.

9. The system of claim 6, wherein said network security service is selected from the group consisting of a private network service, a managed firewall service, a managed intrusion detection service, and a managed intrusion prevention service.

10. The system of claim 9, wherein each of said email security service;

said managed datacenter service;

said shared exchange hosting service;

said storage, recovery, and backup service; and

said network security service comprises a software-enabled data management service running on a plurality of servers located in at least one datacenter operated by a datacenter operator.

12. The system of claim 10, wherein said datacenter comprises a virtual datacenter.

11. The system of 10, wherein said datacenter comprises a physical datacenter.

13. A system, comprising:

a control panel hosted on at least one server communicatively coupled to a network, said control panel being accessible to a user via a client communicatively coupled to said network, said control panel further comprising a plurality of tools for managing a managed datacenter service.

14. The system of claim 13, wherein said control panel comprises a webpage.

15. The system of claim 13, wherein said control panel comprises a website.

16. The system of claim 13, wherein said network is selected from the group consisting of the Internet, a public switched telephone network, a global Telex network, a computer network, an intranet, an extranet, a local-area network, a wide-area network, a wired network, and a wireless network.

17. The system of claim 16, wherein said managed datacenter service is selected from the group consisting of a private network service, a managed firewall service, a managed load balancing service, a server management service, and a managed network access service.

18. The system of claim 17, wherein said control panel further comprises a plurality of tools for managing an email security service.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein said email security service is selected from the group consisting of an email encryption service, a virus scanning service, a spam filtering service, a content filtering service, and an under attack mitigation service.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein said control panel further comprises a plurality of tools for managing a shared exchange hosting service.

21. The system of claim 20, wherein said control panel further comprises a plurality of tools for managing a storage, recovery, and backup service.

22. The system of claim 21, wherein said storage, recovery, and backup service provides a user with file transfer protocol access to a plurality of data stored on at least one of said plurality of servers via a client communicatively coupled to said network.

23. The system of claim 22, wherein said storage, recovery, and backup service comprises an application programming interface providing a user with access to a plurality of data stored on at least one of said plurality of servers via a client communicatively coupled to said network.

24. The system of claim 23, wherein said control panel further comprises a plurality of tools for managing a network security service.

25. The system of claim 24, wherein said network security service is selected from the group consisting of a private network service, a managed firewall service, a managed intrusion detection service, and a managed intrusion prevention service.

26. The system of claim 24, wherein each of said email security service;

said managed datacenter service;

said shared exchange hosting service;

said storage, recovery, and backup service; and

said network security service comprises a software-enabled data management service running on a plurality of servers located in at least one datacenter operated by a datacenter operator.

28. The system of claim 26, wherein said datacenter comprises a virtual datacenter.

27. The system of 26, wherein said datacenter comprises a physical datacenter.
