Backups are only part of the picture
Most businesses know they should have backups. Far fewer know whether those backups actually work, what they cover, or what happens on the day something goes wrong. Having a recovery plan in place is just as important as the backup itself.
We help small and medium businesses, from a single person up to a few hundred staff, put both pieces in place. Large organizations have plenty of options; our focus is the businesses that are too often overlooked.
Backup for your cloud services
Moving email and files to the cloud does not mean they are backed up. Often deleted or overwritten data can only be recovered for a limited time, and an attacker or a mistake can affect that data too.
Depending on your needs, we have solutions to store your backups in the cloud (cloud-to-cloud backup) or on your site.
We also help you back up computers, servers and databases as part of our consulting and Managed Services.
Disaster recovery plans and policies
We can help you write the documents that tell your team what to do when something goes wrong:
- Backup and data retention policies - What is backed up, how often, and for how long.
- Disaster recovery plans - Who does what, in what order, to get the business running again.
- Security policies - Clear rules your staff can actually follow.
A plan is written for your business and your size. A five-person office does not need the same binder as a large enterprise, but it still needs to know what to do.
Ransomware is one of the most common reasons businesses need to recover their data. Read more on our Ransomware Remediation page, or contact us to talk about your backups and recovery plan.
