Your Data Is Always Recoverable — Guaranteed

Ransomware encrypts your files. A server crashes. A disaster destroys your office. With GCS managed backup and disaster recovery, your data is protected, verified, and recoverable — every time, guaranteed, with zero data loss.

Cloud Backup

Automated, Encrypted, Verified — Every Night

Every file, every database, every email, and every system image is backed up automatically every night to encrypted cloud storage. But backup alone is not enough — we verify every backup is complete, consistent, and actually recoverable.

Too many businesses discover their backups are corrupted or incomplete only when they need them most. We test restorability continuously so that never happens to you.

Automated Nightly

Every endpoint backed up on schedule, no user action needed

AES-256 Encrypted

Data encrypted in transit and at rest

Verification Testing

Every backup tested for restorability automatically

90-Day Retention

Full 90-day retention with point-in-time recovery

The 3-2-1 Backup Rule — Built In

3

3 Copies of Your Data

Production data + local backup + off-site cloud backup. Three independent copies ensure no single failure can cause data loss.

2

2 Different Storage Types

Local NAS/appliance for fast recovery + cloud storage for off-site protection. Different media eliminates correlated failures.

1

1 Off-Site Copy

Encrypted cloud backup stored in a geographically separate data center. Fire, flood, or theft at your office cannot reach it.

Disaster Recovery — From Crisis to Operational in Hours

When disaster strikes, the question is not whether you have backups — it is how fast you can get back to work. Our DR platform guarantees full system recovery within your agreed RTO.

Bare-Metal Recovery

Complete server restoration from image-level backups. Hardware fails? We spin up your entire environment on replacement hardware or cloud infrastructure.

Full server in under 4 hours

Cloud Failover

If your physical infrastructure is destroyed, we fail your critical systems over to cloud servers — keeping your business operational while physical recovery happens.

Cloud failover in 1 hour

Ransomware Rollback

Encrypted files restored from pre-infection snapshots. No ransom paid, no data lost, no negotiation with criminals. Clean recovery, verified and tested.

Zero ransoms paid — ever

Business Continuity Planning

A Documented Plan for Every Scenario

Disaster recovery is the technical response. Business continuity is the organizational response. We build both — a comprehensive plan that ensures your entire business can continue operating during and after any disruption.

Documented BCP

Written business continuity plan covering critical systems, recovery priorities, communication protocols, and role assignments

Communication Chain

Who calls whom, in what order, through what channels — documented and practiced so nobody freezes during a real incident

Critical System Priority

Ranked recovery order based on business impact — your most important systems come back first, not in random order

Remote Work Failover

If your office is inaccessible, your team can work remotely with full system access within hours — pre-configured and tested

Disaster Recovery Testing

Tested Monthly. Documented. Auditable.

A backup you have never tested is a backup you cannot trust. We perform full disaster recovery tests every month — restoring systems from backup to verify that your data is complete, your applications work, and your recovery time meets your SLA.

Every test is documented with results, timing, and any issues discovered — providing auditable proof for compliance requirements and giving you confidence that recovery will work when it matters.

  • Full system restore from backup to isolated environment
  • Application functionality verification post-restore
  • Recovery time measurement against SLA targets
  • Documented results with issue tracking and remediation
  • Compliance-ready audit reports provided quarterly

RTO & RPO Planning

Guaranteed Recovery Targets — In Writing

We do not say "we will get you back up as fast as we can." We define exact recovery targets, put them in your contract, and test them monthly to prove we can meet them.

RTO — Recovery Time Objective

4 hrs
Maximum time to full system recovery

Your RTO defines the maximum acceptable downtime. We guarantee full system availability within 4 hours for standard environments, with 1-hour cloud failover for critical systems.

  • 4-hour standard RTO guarantee
  • 1-hour critical system failover
  • SLA credits if missed
  • Tested monthly

RPO — Recovery Point Objective

15 min
Maximum data loss window

Your RPO defines the maximum acceptable data loss. With 15-minute incremental snapshots, you lose at most 15 minutes of work — and for many systems, we achieve near-zero RPO with continuous replication.

  • 15-minute incremental snapshots
  • Near-zero for critical databases
  • 90-day point-in-time recovery
  • Verified every backup cycle

When was the last time your backups were actually tested?

If you cannot answer that question with a specific date and documented results, your data is at risk. Our free backup assessment evaluates your current strategy and identifies gaps before a disaster finds them first.

27 years. Zero data loss events. 100% backup success rate.
