Backups exist, but restore is never tested.
We introduce recovery tests and documented emergency scenarios.
Data protection
Server backup and data recovery
Backup is not a one-time copy. It is a process that must be testable, recoverable and defensible after an incident.
What this page covers
- backup for VMs, files, databases and configuration
- retention, encryption and copy isolation
- recovery tests and DR procedures
- backup job monitoring and reports
When it matters
Clear signals that the server layer needs structured ownership.
Copies are kept too close to production.
We design separation, retention and ransomware-aware protection.
Nobody knows the real data loss and recovery window.
We help define RPO, RTO and a realistic recovery plan.
Scope
A practical service scope that can become a project or recurring support.

Operational detail
What we do as part of this service.
Service work
- we design backup policy, retention and copy separation
- we monitor backup jobs and report failed or incomplete copies
- we run recovery tests and document disaster recovery procedures
- we assess backup resilience against human error, failure and ransomware
Who this is for
- companies that have backup but do not test restore
- organisations that require a defined recovery time after failure
- teams that want to structure copies of VMs, files and databases
Technology and SLA
The service is described in business terms, but delivered on concrete systems.
Technologies we usually meet
- Veeam
- Proxmox Backup
- VMware
- Hyper-V
- Linux
- Windows Server
- NAS
- off-site backup
Response model
- RPO and RTO defined before backup changes
- alerts for failed jobs and retention gaps
- periodic recovery tests instead of relying on assumptions

Questions clients ask before the first call
Can you review our existing backup?
Yes. We can begin with an audit and a controlled restore test.
Can backups be kept outside the company?
Yes. We match local, external or hybrid models to risk and budget.
First step
We start with the current environment, not with a product list.
A short description of systems, availability expectations, current pain points and backup approach is enough to choose a sensible next step.
