JERICHO, N.Y. -- Lightpath®, a market leader in Ethernet-based communication solutions for New York metropolitan area businesses, today announced the availability of Managed Backup for mid-market businesses that want to deploy a simple, reliable and cost-effective desktop or server backup solution. The offering comprises Managed Backup Desktop and Managed Backup Server, and leverages Lightpath’s 100 percent fiber-based network for increased security and performance. The services are available at flat-rate pricing as an add-on to the company’s popular Internet Voice Bundle.
