50%

The Recovery Reality

While we successfully recover data from most failed systems, prevention is always better than recovery. Many businesses discover too late that their backup systems are inadequate or their critical data was never properly protected.

Comprehensive Data Loss Prevention Strategies

Layered Backup Solutions

Implement the 3-2-1 backup rule: 3 copies of data, on 2 different media, with 1 copy offsite. We design custom backup architectures for your specific needs.

Enterprise Storage Solutions

Properly configured RAID arrays, NAS devices, and SAN systems with monitoring to alert you before failures occur.

Cloud Integration

Secure cloud backup solutions with versioning and geographic redundancy to protect against local disasters.

Employee Training

Human error causes 50% of data loss. We provide staff training on proper data handling and security practices.

Power Protection

UPS systems and proper power conditioning to prevent corruption from power surges and outages.

Regular Audits

Proactive system checks to identify potential failure points before they cause data loss.
