Cloud backup and disaster recovery for Tampa Bay businesses
When the worst day comes, your data is already safe.
A deleted folder, a dead server, a ransom note, a storm surge. Each one takes something different. Your data lives in three places, so each bad day has a copy it can't touch.
Three copies, three places
Ransomware goes after your backups first. Ours aren't where it can reach.
Pick a bad day. See what it takes, and where your data comes back from.
Where your data livesIllustration
1. Your server, in your office
Files, email, the practice or accounting system: what your people use all day.
Safe2. A second backup server, on site
A second copy on different hardware, close by, for the quick restore.
Safe3. Off site, in the data center
A copy away from your building and your network: out of reach of the water and of the ransom note.
SafeWednesday, 3:10 pm. A shared folder is gone.
Someone dragged it to the wrong place and emptied the bin. Your server lost it; the on-site copy didn't. Call the help desk and it comes back from the copy in your building, the quick way.
Monday, 7:40 am. The server won't start.
Hardware fails without warning. The data is already on a second backup server on site, so the restore starts from there while we sort out the hardware.
Friday, 11:58 pm. The files are encrypted and there's a note.
Ransomware goes after everything it can reach on your network, and backups first. So plan as if both copies in the building are gone. The off-site copy is out of its reach, and that's where your data comes back from. See the attack replay.
A hurricane week. Water in the office.
Both copies in the building are under water. The off-site copy never was. And while the internet is down, calls fail over to 5G and follow your team to their phones. See hurricane mode.

Where do our backups live?
In more than one place. Your data is backed up to a second server on site, for quick restores, and off site, out of reach of a storm or ransomware in your building.
What happens if ransomware hits our server?
We restore from the copy it can't reach: the off-site backup. Ransomware goes after backups first, which is why one copy always lives away from your network. SHIELDS, which comes with every plan, works to stop the attack before it gets that far.
Can you bring back one deleted file?
Yes. Call the help desk. Hybrid backup keeps a copy close by for quick restores of a file, a folder or a whole server.
Do you supply servers and network hardware?
Yes. We provide network and server hardware and software, and our team monitors servers, workstations and firewalls around the clock.
