Data Backup & Recovery

Data backup & recovery services are other areas where the culture has shifted.  As more services are moved online, most people believe that there is a "recycle bin" of sorts that information can be always be restored from.  In some cases, that is true.  If you delete an email from Office 365, by default you can have that email retrieved within a 30 day period.  But what happens when an employee opens a file and accidentally deletes the contents, then it autosaves?  What happens when there is a virus that encrypts the hard drive, all files and the shadow copies?  What if it syncs up to the shared drives and encrypts multiple users?  When you multiply the number of employees effected by the hourly wages, you can see the sheer labor costs quickly mounts up.

If your files get encrypted from a virus, these days you are less likely to have point-in-time backups (where you can choose a point in time to restore from) to revert to.  With the right tools and support, many issues can be resolved prior to having an outage or can help you recover from one quickly, which saves time and money. 

IBTs partner network includes several options for low cost online backup solutions, from some of the top names in the industry.  We can store mission critical backups with some of our optional software for as low as $.15 per GB, allowing you to store data securely online without the worry about accidental damage.  As with all of our services, you can choose as much or as little data be protected as you require, allowing you to control costs.  In addition, we have local software that can be deployed to the devices to ensure that the risk of attack vectors are minimized, helping reassure your team that the devices and data are safe from malicious content.
