Disaster Recovery & Backup
Backup strategy, failover planning, and tested recovery procedures. We build it, test it, and iterate.
Every company needs a DR plan. Almost none of them test it.
Backup strategy: Identify critical systems. Define RPO (how much data can you lose?) and RTO (how fast must you recover?). Implement cloud-based, on-prem, or hybrid backup. Encrypt all backups. Automate verification.
Failover planning: Identify single points of failure. Design redundancy for critical systems. Configure automated failover. Document manual procedures.
Testing: Quarterly tabletop exercises. Semi-annual recovery tests. Annual full-scale DR drills with measured recovery times.
Scenarios we plan for: Ransomware attack (your number one threat). Hardware failure. Cloud provider outage. Natural disaster. Insider threat.
