Data Protection

Data Backups & Disaster Recovery

Backups are table stakes; recoverability is the win. We practice the 3-2-1(+1) rule: 3 copies, 2 media types, 1 offsite, +1 immutable.

Why backups fail

  • Silent failures and untested restores
  • Backups stored in same blast radius
  • RPO/RTO not aligned to business impact
  • Human-driven runbooks without guardrails

Our approach

  • Immutable + MFA-protected backup vaults
  • Automated daily verification & quarterly fire-drills
  • Application-aware backups (SQL, M365, SaaS)
  • Segmented recovery networks & staged cutover

Business outcomes

  • Confident restores under pressure
  • Transparent dashboards + alerts
  • Clear RTO/RPO SLAs by workload
  • Lower cyber insurance premiums

Service Tiers
