Backup and Disaster Recovery

When something goes wrong, the question is how quickly the school is back. We design immutable backup with recovery that is proven, not assumed, so an incident is an inconvenience, not a crisis, and so you can evidence resilience to trustees and insurers.

What it is

Recovery that is proven, not assumed

Backup that has never been restored is a hope, not a plan. We design immutable backups that ransomware cannot encrypt, build automated recovery verification into new installations so restores are proven without anyone remembering to run them, and restore from tape every month to prove the end-to-end process.

We document recovery time and recovery point objectives so leadership can make informed decisions, and so the posture is evidenced for trustees and insurers.

  • Immutable, ransomware-resilient backup
  • Automated recovery verification, with defined recovery time objective (RTO) and RPO
  • Cloud and on-premises targets
  • Documented for trustees and insurers
