Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace aren't backed up
Both providers protect their infrastructure, not your data. Deleted mail, files, and SharePoint content age out of retention permanently. This is the single most common gap we find.
Cloud & Local Backup
Cloud & Local Backup and Disaster Recovery
A backup you have never restored from is a hypothesis, not a backup. We build layered backup — local for speed, cloud for survivability — and we test the restore, because that is the part that actually matters.
What's included
How we protect your data
We implement secure backup solutions across both cloud platforms and local systems. Automated backups and recovery planning ensure your critical data is always protected and quickly recoverable.
- Automated local backups for fast recovery of individual files and systems
- Encrypted offsite cloud backup that survives fire, theft, and ransomware
- Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace backup — your provider does not do this for you
- Server and workstation image-based backups for full bare-metal recovery
- Regular test restores with documented results
- Immutable backup copies that ransomware cannot encrypt or delete
- Documented recovery time and recovery point objectives
- Written disaster recovery plan your team can actually follow
What we fix
The gaps we find most often
Backups run but have never been restored
Silent failures are common. A backup job reporting success does not mean the data is recoverable.
The only backup is on the same network
Ransomware encrypts every drive it can reach, including the local backup target. Offsite and immutable copies are what break that.

FAQ
Questions about cloud & local backup
No — this is the most expensive misunderstanding in small business IT. Microsoft and Google guarantee their service is available, not that your deleted or corrupted data is recoverable months later. Third-party backup is a separate, necessary layer.
It depends on what failed and what we've designed for. A single deleted file is minutes. A full server rebuild from an image is typically hours. We set those targets with you up front rather than discovering them mid-crisis.
Yes, on a schedule, with documented results. An untested backup is the most common reason a recovery fails when it's finally needed.
