Overview

SafetyNet is a web app that copies your FileMaker backup files and transmits them using SSL to Amazon S3, Amazon’s cloud-based file storage service. Having off-site back-ups insures that your data won’t be lost, even if something were to happen to your entire on-site computer system. It also gives you the ability to access your files from anywhere you can access your AWS account.

Installation

If you used SafetyNet in the past, it was designed as a plugin and was installed as such. However, SafetyNet is now a web application so an installer is included in download. To install, run the Mac Installer.pkg or the Windows Installer.exe. The installer will automatically launch the SafetyNet page which will guide you through the set up process of linking SafetyNet with your AWS account

AWS

You will need to have an AWS account in order to use SafetyNet. If you do not already have one, you can sign up for an AWS account here. Once you have done this, you will need an activation key to link your AWS account to SafetyNet. This can be done on the Admin page (SERVERHOSTNAME/SafetyNet/Admin) for SafetyNet by clicking on the "Get Activation Key" button. Once you have subscribed to SafetyNet, you can generate the Activation Key here . Once you have generated the key, copy and paste it back on the Admin page. This will link your AWS account with SafetyNet. If you need to manage your payment information or cancel your subscription of SafetyNet you can do so here
