Arkiva was founded in 2005, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina by Bruce Roberson and Kenneth Goldberg, who live in South Florida. The catalyst in creating Arkiva, Inc. was the unprecedented destruction of homes, businesses, and government facilities in Mississippi and Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The founders recognized the potential for protecting assets by creating a digital catalog and they took that to the next level by housing it in a geographically separated data center with built in redundancy.

The goal from the beginning was to provide a single secure offsite location to store, access, and share any type of digital material. Arkiva not only protects personal and business files, but also provides users the ability to access their personal portal at any time, from any location to edit, share or restore any file. Arkiva is a complete digital media solution. Through the arkiva.com portal customers can upload Photos, Videos, Music, Documents, or PC Files on their own. Arkiva also provides a service of converting any old media to digital such as Videotapes, Film, Records, Documents, or Photos.

Arkiva provides an affordable, end-to-end “turnkey” service that will convert old media for its customers and give them the platform to store their already digitized data. Information is stored on remote secure servers and backed-up in a redundant data center. This service enables individuals and businesses interested in asset preservation to reconstruct items of value through digital records in case of natural disasters, theft, or fire. Furthermore, the owners of the information have complete and unrestricted online access to this information from any location. By using an Internet-based delivery, end users do not require specialized software or knowledge.

The increased incidence of hurricanes, tornados, floods, and wildfires as evidenced recently in Southern California, show no signs of diminishing and create urgency in developing and deploying a product like Arkiva’s “personal cyber home”. These combined factors provide for a window of opportunity in an emerging market that will demonstrate exponential growth. Arkiva brings together the right people and technology to address this market need immediately.
