Backup & recovery
Protect your data, recover with confidence
Ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion, or a flooded office – any one of them could take your organisation offline.
Why backup and recovery can’t be left to chance
Too many organisations assume their data is protected until the moment they need it back. By then, it’s too late. Proper backup and recovery isn’t a compliance checkbox – it’s the safety net your entire operation depends on.
Ransomware is a matter for when
Attacks are increasing in frequency and sophistication across every sector. Without tested, isolated backups, a ransomware incident can take your organisation offline for weeks.
Accidental deletion happens every day
It doesn’t take a cyber attack to lose critical data. One wrong click from a well-meaning team member can wipe files that took months to create.
Your regulators expect a recovery plan
Downtime costs more than you think
Every hour your systems are unavailable is an hour your team can’t work, your clients can’t be served, and your reputation takes a hit. Fast, reliable recovery is a business-critical capability.
Experience you can trust
Recovery you can rely on, from a partner who’s tested it
We don’t just set up backups and walk away. We design, test, and maintain a recovery capability that gives your leadership genuine confidence your organisation can survive the unexpected.
Backup that's actually tested
A backup you’ve never tested is a backup you can’t trust. We run regular recovery tests to verify your data can be restored when it matters – not just that it’s being copied.
Cloud and on-premise protection
Whether your data lives in Microsoft 365, Azure, on-premise servers, or a mix of all three, we protect it all under one consistent backup strategy.
Geographically redundant storage
Your backups are stored in separate physical locations so a single disaster can’t take out your live systems and your recovery data at the same time.
Defined recovery objectives
We agree clear recovery time and recovery point objectives upfront so you know exactly how quickly you’ll be back online and how much data you could lose in a worst-case scenario.
Sector-aware continuity planning
A school needs to reopen on Monday morning. A law firm can’t miss a court deadline. We build recovery plans around the operational realities of your sector, not a generic template.
One team for backup and response
When an incident occurs, you call the same team that built and maintains your backup environment. No handoffs, no delays, no explaining your setup to a stranger mid-crisis.

Frequently asked questions
Backup feels straightforward until you start asking the hard questions about what’s actually protected and how fast you’d recover. Here are the ones we hear most often.
Isn't Microsoft 365 already backed up?
Not in the way most people assume. Microsoft guarantees platform availability, not your data. Deleted emails, overwritten files, and compromised accounts can result in permanent data loss without a proper third-party backup in place.
How quickly could we recover from a major incident?
That depends on the recovery objectives we agree together. We define realistic targets for how quickly you’re back online and how much data you could lose, then build the backup architecture to deliver against them.
How often are backups tested?
On a regular schedule agreed with you – typically quarterly, though some regulated organisations require more frequent testing. Every test is documented so you’ve got evidence for auditors and leadership.
What if we only need to recover a single file?
Not every recovery is a disaster scenario. We provide granular restoration so individual files, emails, or folders can be recovered quickly without restoring an entire environment.
