Data Protection & Recovery

Q: What's the difference between backup and DR?

Backups restore data; DR restores services. DR includes runbooks, target environments, and coordinated failover/failback.

Keep your business running—even when things go wrong. We design, operate, and test backups and disaster recovery for servers, endpoints, SaaS, and cloud workloads with ransomware-resilient architectures and verified restores.

What's at Risk Without a Plan

Ransomware encrypts file shares, SaaS data, and backups themselves.
Hardware or cloud outages causing days of downtime and lost revenue.
Human error—accidental deletions or overwrites that go unnoticed.
Compliance and cyber insurance gaps due to untested recovery.

Coverage: One Policy. Every Workload.

On-prem Servers & VMs

Image-based and application-aware backups for Windows/Linux workloads, databases, and line-of-business apps. Fast file-level and full-system restores.

Endpoints

Laptops and desktops protected with policy-driven backups, useful for hybrid/remote teams and exec devices with critical data.

Microsoft 365

Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams backed up to independent storage with granular restore (emails, files, sites, conversations).

Google Workspace

Gmail, Drive, and Shared Drives protected with point-in-time recovery for emails, folders, and documents.

Cloud Workloads (Azure & AWS)

Snapshot orchestration and policy backups for IaaS, databases, and object storage, with cross-region/off-account retention and immutability.

Disaster Recovery

Runbooks, failover plans, and scheduled DR tests to achieve documented RTO/RPO and board-level assurance.

Right-Sized RPO/RTO Targets

We align recovery objectives to how your business actually operates.

Tier	Typical Workloads	RPO (Data Loss)	RTO (Downtime)
Tier 1 – Critical	Finance, ERP, core file shares	≤ 15 minutes	≤ 1 hour
Tier 2 – Important	Departmental apps, intranet	≤ 4 hours	≤ 8 hours
Tier 3 – Standard	Dev/test, archival data	24 hours	Next business day

Ransomware Resilience by Design

Immutable/offline backups that cannot be modified or deleted early.
Separate credentials and break-glass procedures for backup admin.
Malware scanning on backup ingest; suspicious change-rate detection.
Recovery rehearsals to validate end-to-end restore time.

Deploy: Implement policies, encryption, immutability, and monitoring.
Validate: Perform test restores and document evidence.
Operate: 24×7 monitoring, tune performance, quarterly DR tests.
Improve: Review incidents/changes and update runbooks.

Data Protection FAQs

Do I still need SaaS backups?

Yes. SaaS platforms protect infrastructure, not your data. Backups provide point-in-time restoration for deleted or encrypted items.

How often should we test recovery?

Minimum quarterly for critical systems, with ad-hoc tests after major changes. We include evidence for audits and insurance.

What's the difference between backup and DR?

Backups restore data; DR restores services. DR includes runbooks, target environments, and coordinated failover/failback.
