Business data protected against loss and disruption

Backups are managed for Microsoft 365 and core systems so data can be restored when files are deleted, systems fail or services are disrupted.

Automated Data Backups

Business data from key systems is backed up on a scheduled basis to reduce the risk of permanent loss after deletion, failure or attack.

Defined Recovery Points

Backups are taken at agreed intervals so systems can be restored to a known point in time rather than an uncertain copy.

Managed Recovery & Restoration

Recovery is handled by IT support when incidents occur, reducing downtime and removing uncertainty about responsibility during restoration.

The ability to restore files and systems after loss or failure

Reduced disruption

Clear responsibility

Recovery actions are managed as part of IT support rather than handled ad hoc

What is Backup & Disaster Recovery?

Backup and disaster recovery covers the ongoing protection of business data so information can be restored when systems fail or data is lost. It focuses on creating reliable copies of data and having a defined process to recover systems after incidents such as deletion, hardware failure or cyber attack.

Protection Against Corruption and Ransomware

Clean backup copies are maintained so data can be restored without relying on compromised systems or paying ransoms.

Backup Monitoring and Testing

Backups are monitored and tested as part of ongoing IT management to confirm data can be restored when needed.

Continuity During Incidents

Critical systems and data can be recovered after failures or cyber incidents so operations can resume without extended outage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between backup and disaster recovery?

Backups store copies of data, while disaster recovery focuses on restoring systems after a serious failure.

How often is data backed up?

Backup schedules are set based on how often data changes and how quickly it needs to be restored.

Where is backed up data stored?

Data is stored securely off site to protect it from local system failures.

How long does recovery take?

Recovery times depend on the system and agreed recovery objectives.

Is backup tested regularly?

Backups are checked to confirm data can be restored when needed.
