Backup and DR that actually works when you need it.
Ransomware, hardware failure, and human error wipe out years of business data in seconds. We make sure your backups exist, are tested, and can actually be restored — not just that they ran last night.
- Immutable off-site snapshots · ransomware-proof
- Defined RTO + RPO · regular restore testing
- Documented DR plan + annual tabletop exercises
An untested backup is just a hope.
Most Calgary businesses we audit have backups they cannot actually rely on. Here's what we see most.
You are not confident your backups actually work
Nobody's tested a restore. The reports say 'success.' That's not enough.
Ransomware could lock you out of your own data
Without immutable snapshots, attackers encrypt the backups too.
A hardware failure could cost you days of work
Recovery from on-prem-only backups takes longer than anyone hopes.
You have never tested your DR plan
Whatever runbook exists has never been used. It probably has gaps.
Backups are running, but no one is checking them
A green checkmark in a dashboard nobody opens is not protection.
Critical data lives only on a single laptop or server
Single point of failure — and it's been failing more lately.
You do not know your RTO or RPO
Without targets, you cannot tell if your backup strategy is working.
Your insurer is asking for immutable backups
It's now a hard requirement on most cyber insurance renewals.
Everything you'd expect,
plus what most agencies skip.
Every project includes the full list. Nothing is “an upgrade” or “out of scope” later.
Automated daily backups
Set-and-forget backups running automatically every day across servers, workstations, and cloud workloads.
Off-site & cloud storage
Data replicated to off-site cloud storage with at least 30 days of retention — separate from production.
Immutable snapshots
Snapshots attackers cannot encrypt, delete, or alter — the single most important control against ransomware.
Backup verification
Automated integrity checks plus regular test restores — because an untested backup is just a hope.
Rapid recovery
Restore individual files in minutes or entire systems in hours, with documented runbooks per workload.
M365 / Workspace backup
Third-party backup of mailboxes, calendars, and files — neither Microsoft nor Google does this for you.
Database & server backup
Application-aware backups for SQL Server, MySQL, Postgres, and your line-of-business systems.
Defined RTO / RPO
Recovery time and recovery point objectives that match the cost of downtime — not a one-size-fits-all SLA.
Disaster recovery plan
Documented DR plan with roles, runbooks, contact lists, and decision trees so your team is not improvising.
Tabletop testing
Annual tabletop exercises so the plan survives contact with reality before you actually need it.
What you walk away with.
Tested, restorable, immutable backups are the obvious deliverable. Here's the full list of what's included.

Deploy
Deploy backup agents, configure cloud storage, set up immutable snapshots, and document everything.
