A backup you have never restored is a hope, not a backup.

Most businesses have a green checkmark somewhere that says “backed up”. Almost none have restored from it. The first restore attempt is usually the day after the ransomware, and that is the day you find out the checkmark was lying.

All of Cloud & infrastructure

Backups, Storage & Disaster Recovery

Backups of files, databases, email and configuration, encrypted, versioned, in your own cloud account.
Restore drills on a schedule, with a written result each time.
Storage that is organized: shared drives with access matching the org chart, archive tiers for the old stuff.
Monitoring and logging, so failures page us before they page you.
A disaster recovery plan in plain English: what breaks, who does what, how long it takes.
Recovery time and recovery point targets you actually agreed to, not defaults.

The honest bit

Backups are boring and cheap. Recovery is where the cost is. If the plan says “restore from backup” and nobody has timed it, the plan is incomplete.
