Backups & Disaster Recovery
Data is the lifeblood of your business. Our comprehensive backup and disaster recovery solutions safeguard your critical data, minimise downtime, and keep your operations running smoothly when disaster strikes.
What we offer
Protection at every level
From automated daily backups to full disaster recovery planning, we ensure your data is always protected and quickly recoverable.
- Automated Cloud Backup
- Continuous, automated data protection without manual intervention. Customisable schedules and incremental backups ensure efficient use of resources.
- Disaster Recovery Planning
- We work with you to determine RTO and RPO targets, assess where business data exists, and balance it all against cost to get the best solution for your business.
- Data Encryption
- Advanced encryption protects your data both in transit and at rest, ensuring your information remains secure and confidential at all times.
- Rapid Recovery
- Cloud-based and hybrid recovery options provide seamless failover and rapid restoration, ensuring your business stays online no matter what.
- Testing & Simulation
- Regular drills and simulations to test your disaster recovery plan, identify weaknesses, and make necessary improvements before they are needed.
- Compliance Support
- Meet industry-specific regulatory requirements with compliant backup solutions that adhere to standards such as GDPR and PCI-DSS.
Our approach
Backup built on three principles
Most businesses have some form of backup in place. The question is whether it would actually work when needed. Our methodology is built around three principles that close the gap between having backups and being able to rely on them.
- Automated and continuous.
- Manual backup processes fail because people forget, skip steps under pressure, or simply run out of time. Every backup we manage is fully automated, running on defined schedules without human intervention. Incremental backups capture only what has changed, keeping storage efficient without sacrificing coverage. You get continuous protection that works in the background while your team focuses on the business.
- Encrypted end to end.
- Your backup data is encrypted before it leaves your systems and stays encrypted in storage. We use AES-256 encryption in transit and at rest, with keys managed separately from the backup data itself. This means that even if storage infrastructure were compromised, your data would remain unreadable. For regulated industries, we provide the documentation needed to demonstrate encryption compliance to auditors.
- Tested and verified.
- A backup that has never been restored is a backup you cannot trust. We run regular recovery tests against live or isolated environments to verify that data can be restored to the expected state within your RTO window. Test results are documented, anomalies are investigated, and any gaps are closed before they become a problem in a real incident.
Our process
From assessment to certified resilience
Every engagement follows the same structured process. It starts with understanding your business, ends with a tested and documented recovery capability, and continues with regular maintenance as your infrastructure evolves.
- 1
Assess your recovery objectives
We start by mapping where your business data lives across servers, cloud services, endpoints, and applications. Working with you, we define your Recovery Point Objective (how much data you can afford to lose) and Recovery Time Objective (how quickly systems must be back online). These figures drive every decision about backup frequency, storage architecture, and recovery tooling.
- 2
Build and document your recovery plan
With objectives agreed, we design the full backup and recovery stack: selecting cloud or hybrid storage tiers, configuring replication, and writing the runbooks your team will follow during an incident. Every component is documented so that recovery can proceed even if key personnel are unavailable. We also map dependencies between systems so the recovery sequence is clear from the start.
- 3
Test, certify, and maintain
Before the plan goes live we run a full recovery simulation. Systems are restored to an isolated environment and validated against your RTO and RPO targets. Once certified, we schedule ongoing tests at intervals appropriate for your risk profile and update the plan whenever your infrastructure changes. You receive a test report after each exercise with findings and any remediation completed.
Beyond backup
Part of a wider continuity strategy
Backup and disaster recovery is at the heart of our business continuity solution, which extends these technical capabilities with DR planning, regular testing, and compliance documentation to ensure your business can recover from any disruption.
We provide these services across all sectors, with particular demand from engineering firms protecting critical project data and accountancy practices safeguarding client financial records.
