Data Protection & Recovery
What is data backup and recovery?
Data backup and recovery is the practice of making frequent copies of business data and storing them in multiple locations (typically local plus cloud) so they can be restored quickly after a hardware failure, ransomware attack, theft, or natural disaster. A complete plan includes backup frequency, retention, encryption, restore testing, and a documented recovery time objective.
If a fire, a theft, or a ransomware attack wiped out your server tomorrow, how long could you be down before it really hurt? For most businesses, the honest answer is a day or two, max. We back up your data every hour, store copies both locally and in the cloud, and test restores so the backup actually works when you need it. If something goes wrong, you are back up in minutes to hours, not days.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a small business back up its data?
At minimum daily, but for any business that creates new records, emails, or files during the day, hourly is the right answer. We run hourly backups seven days a week, with both local and cloud copies. The more frequent the backup, the less work you lose if something goes wrong.
How fast can you restore my data after a disaster?
For most clients, critical systems are back online within minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of the data and the type of failure. A simple file restore is near-instant. A full server rebuild from cloud backup typically takes a few hours. We define your recovery time objective up front so there are no surprises.
Does backup protect against ransomware?
Yes, when configured correctly. Our backups are versioned and stored in a location that ransomware cannot reach from the infected machine, so even if your primary systems are encrypted we can restore clean copies from before the attack. Backup is the single most important defense against ransomware.
