Backup & Disaster Recovery

Backup & Disaster Recovery, Without the Drama

Outages, ransomware, accidental deletes—bad things happen. We make sure your data is protected and your team can get back to work quickly and safely.

Plan my recovery

Common Challenges We See

  • Backups that “ran” but weren’t actually recoverable when needed.
  • One-size-fits-all policies that ignore critical apps and databases.
  • Cloud files only with no point-in-time restore or retention strategy.
  • Unclear RPO/RTO targets—no shared expectation for data loss or downtime.
  • No routine testing so recovery steps are slow, tribal, or incomplete.

We fix the fundamentals and build a recovery plan that fits your business, not just your tooling.

How We Protect Your Data

Layered Backups

Endpoint, server, SaaS (Microsoft 365/Google), and image-level options so the right data is protected the right way.

Defined RPO/RTO

We set clear Recovery Point (RPO) and Recovery Time (RTO) targets with you, then design to hit them.

On-Site & Cloud

Local speed for quick restores, cloud resilience for site loss and ransomware scenarios.

Immutable Copies

Write-once backups and least-privilege access reduce risk from ransomware and insider threats.

Documented Playbooks

Step-by-step recovery procedures for apps, files, and full systems—no guesswork under pressure.

Tested Regularly

Scheduled restore tests prove your backups work—and keep your team confident when it matters.

What’s Included in Our BDR Plan

  • Backup policy design by workload and criticality
  • Endpoint, server, VM, and Microsoft 365 protection
  • Encrypted on-site and cloud storage options
  • Immutable/air-gapped copies where appropriate
  • Automated backup monitoring and health checks
  • Monthly restore tests (spot) and quarterly tabletop exercises
  • Documented runbooks and escalation procedures
  • Annual vendor and tooling review to stay best-in-class

Design my backup plan

Set Expectations Up Front

RPO How much data you can afford to lose.
RTO How fast you need to be back up and running.
Scope Which systems and processes are restored first.

We align these with your leadership team, document them clearly, and review them during quarterly check-ins so your recovery strategy evolves with your business.

Real-World Scenarios

Ransomware Friday

Encrypted file share discovered late afternoon. We isolated the source, validated clean recovery points, and restored priority folders first. Users resumed work the next business day with minimal rework.

Deleted Mailbox

Departed employee mailbox needed for legal hold. We performed a point-in-time restore and exported required messages in hours—not days.

Common Questions

Do you back up Microsoft 365?

Yes. We protect Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams data with point-in-time restores and retention that matches your policy—and your insurer’s expectations.

Is cloud backup enough?

Usually not by itself. We pair fast local restores with cloud resilience, and add immutable copies where risk justifies it.

How often do you test backups?

We schedule monthly spot restores and run quarterly tabletop exercises. Testing is non-negotiable—assume nothing until it’s restored.

Which backup tools do you use?

We evaluate vendors annually with our leadership and CTO. We select tools based on performance and reliability for your use case—not on brand popularity.
