Backup & data protection.
NAS, cloud backup, offsite copy and disaster recovery, tested regularly. A backup only counts once the restore has worked.
Starting point
Data loss has many causes
A failed hard disk, ransomware, an accidentally deleted folder, fire or theft. The question is not whether one of these happens, but whether you can keep working afterwards.
The 3-2-1 rule
Three copies, two media, one offsite
Three copies of your data, on two different media, one of them outside the office. That covers every scenario mentioned, including ransomware, because one copy is disconnected from the network.
Services
Individual backup concepts
NAS solutions
Local backup hub in the office: fast restore, and the data stays with you.
Cloud backup
Automatic, encrypted backup to the cloud, restorable from anywhere.
Offsite backup
A physical copy outside the office, safe from fire, theft and water damage.
Server backup
Windows and Linux servers backed up completely, so that a server can be restored on new hardware within hours.
Microsoft 365 backup
Microsoft keeps deleted data only for a limited time. Exchange, SharePoint, Teams and OneDrive backed up permanently and independently.
Disaster recovery
A documented recovery plan, tested regularly.
In practice
What matters
Fast recovery
With a current, tested backup a business is back at work within hours after an attack. Without a backup it takes weeks, if it works at all.
Regular tests
I regularly restore individual files and whole systems as a test and document the result.
Part of compliance
Swiss and EU data protection law require the protection of personal data. A working backup is part of that.
