Data Backup & Disaster Recovery

If the worst happens, how quickly could you get back to work? We give businesses across Northern Ireland reliable, tested backups and a clear recovery plan, so a failure, theft or ransomware attack never becomes a disaster.

How we protect your data

๐Ÿ”„

Automated Backups

Your data is backed up automatically, on a schedule, with no reliance on anyone remembering to do it.

โšก

Rapid Recovery

Restore individual files or whole systems fast, keeping downtime and lost work to a minimum.

๐Ÿ”’

Ransomware Protection

Off-site, isolated copies mean that even if attackers encrypt your systems, your data survives.

๐Ÿ“ˆ

Business Continuity

A tested plan for keeping the business running through outages, hardware failure and the unexpected.

Is your data really safe?

  • Your backup is a USB drive that someone is supposed to remember to plug in.
  • Backups are kept in the same building as the computers they protect.
  • Nobody has tried restoring from the backup to check it actually works.
  • Your Microsoft 365 or Google email and files have no separate backup.
  • You don't know how long it would take to be working again after a failure.

How it works

  1. 1. Assess

    We find out what data you hold, where it lives and how long you could cope without it.

  2. 2. Set up

    Automatic backups to secure off-site storage, with copies attackers cannot reach or encrypt.

  3. 3. Test

    We restore from your backups regularly to prove they work, so you are never relying on hope.

  4. 4. Monitor

    Every backup is checked. If one fails, we know about it and fix it, without you having to.

Data Backup & Disaster Recovery: common questions

How often should we back up?
At least daily for most small businesses, and more often for data that changes constantly. Ask yourself how much work you could afford to redo.
What is the 3-2-1 backup rule?
Keep three copies of your data, on two different types of storage, with one copy off-site. It protects you against hardware failure, theft, fire and ransomware.
Where is our backed-up data stored?
In secure, encrypted off-site storage. We can tell you exactly where and how it is protected for your data protection records.
How quickly can you restore our systems?
Single files can usually be restored within minutes. Whole systems depend on their size, which is why we agree recovery targets with you up front and test against them.

When did you last test your backups?

A backup you have never restored from is a risk, not a safety net. Get in touch and we will review your current protection for free.
