Backup solutions · PROFAIT services
Local and off-site backups designed for data recovery.
We build a backup solution around your critical data, acceptable recovery time and infrastructure. Depending on your requirements, backups can be stored locally, on external media or at a separate location.
01
Local backups
We keep copies on a local device or server so data can be restored quickly within your business network.
- Backups to a server or dedicated storage device
- Backups for files, servers and databases
- Restricting access to backup storage where possible
02
External and off-site copies
A separate copy can help if equipment at your premises becomes unavailable. We choose the destination based on data volume, connectivity and your data protection policy.
- Copies on external media or at another location
- Cloud backups where they meet your requirements
- Planning transfer and retention
03
Incremental and full backups
We can combine full and incremental backups. Incremental backups usually reduce the amount of data copied each time by saving changes since the previous backup. The recovery plan must account for the complete backup chain.
- Choosing backup types and frequency
- Setting retention periods and storage requirements
- Scheduling periodic full backups where appropriate
04
Backup protection and verification
Backups should be protected from accidental deletion and unauthorised access, and checked regularly. An unverified backup may not be usable when a problem occurs.
- Restricting access to backups
- Checking backup results and available storage
- Testing the recovery of selected files or services
05
Recovery and continuity
We determine what needs to be recovered first and how to resume work after a file is lost, equipment fails or another incident occurs.
- Restoring files and folders
- Recovering application and database data
- Documented recovery steps for the installed solution
06
A plan tailored to your business
Not all data is equally important. We define together what to back up, how often and for how long to retain copies.
- Inventorying critical data and systems
- Setting recovery objectives
- Reviewing the plan when your infrastructure changes
