Backup and Storage

Data backup is the process of copying files to a storage device to prevent data loss.  Data loss can be the result of computer viruses, hardware failure, file corruption, or human error.  Since data is a critical component of any business, a backup plan should be enacted to document the processes for copying, retaining, and restoring data.

Backup storage is primarily an additional storage used for maintaining data backups sets.  It is typically external to the system from which the backup data is captured.  The backup storage device can be any mass medium such as a storage area network (SAN), network-attached storage (NAS), or cloud-based storage.

Our goal is to work with you to develop a backup and disaster recovery plan that will protect your business data.  We recommend maintaining local and off-site backups to ensure data integrity and availability.  We continually test and verify the reliability of the backup to assure a successful restoration when needed.
