What is a cloud Backup?

A cloud backup is a service that automatically backs up your important data to a remote server over the internet. It provides an off-site backup solution that can help protect your data from disasters such as theft, fire, flood, or hardware failure. Cloud backups also allow you to easily access and restore your data from anywhere with an internet connection, making it a convenient and essential solution for businesses of all sizes.

What is Business Continuity?

Business continuity is the process of planning and implementing strategies to ensure that essential business functions can continue in the event of a disruption, such as a natural disaster or a cyber attack.

It is important for businesses to have a business continuity plan in place to minimize the impact of such disruptions on their operations, reputation, and financial stability.

This plan typically includes measures such as data backup and recovery, emergency communication protocols, and alternate work arrangements.

By having a solid business continuity plan, businesses can better protect themselves and their customers, and increase their chances of surviving and recovering from unexpected disruptions.

Business Continuity Benefits:

Protecting Revenue:

In the event of a disaster or system failure, business continuity ensures that critical operations can continue, preventing revenue loss.

Maintaining Customer Confidence:

With business continuity measures in place, customers can be assured that your business can continue to operate and meet their needs, even in the face of unexpected disruptions.

Meeting Legal and Regulatory Requirements:

Many industries have strict regulations around data storage and availability, and business continuity plans ensure that you remain compliant.

Protecting Your Reputation:

A business that can quickly recover from an incident and continue to serve its customers demonstrates resilience and reliability, enhancing its reputation in the marketplace.

our Cutting Edge Backup & Recovery

We backup FASTER & with greater SECURITY

the backup method that backs up only the changed blocks or the specific parts of a file that have been modified since the last backup. This method is faster and more secure than file-level backup because it eliminates the need to back up the entire file, resulting in faster backups and reduced network traffic.

Additionally, it provides enhanced security because it reduces the risk of data tampering or loss due to network interruptions or failures. By backing up only the changed blocks, block-level backup ensures that only the modified data is sent over the network, reducing the amount of data that needs to be transferred and therefore the risk of data loss during transmission.

we use block level backups

Bit-level and block-level backups are two methods of backing up data in cloud backup.

The old way: Bit-level backup copies data at the individual file level, regardless of whether the file has been modified or not. This can result in slower backup times and larger backup file sizes.

How We do it!: Block-level backup, on the other hand, backs up only the changed or modified blocks of data. This method is more efficient, as it reduces the amount of data that needs to be backed up, which leads to faster backup times and smaller backup file sizes.

The advantages of block-level backup include faster backup times, reduced storage requirements, and quicker restore times in the event of data loss or corruption.

Additionally, block-level backups allow for more frequent backups, which means that businesses can recover more recent data in the event of a disaster.

Data is protected in flight and at rest

this is the process of securing data during transmission over a network and while stored in a backup destination respectively. This means that the data is encrypted and unreadable to anyone who does not have the encryption key, ensuring that it remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access or interception. Encryption helps to safeguard against cyberattacks, data breaches, and other security threats.

Regional compliance & data sovereignty

we have many data centers across the world where if required by law is the legal concept that data is subject to the laws and regulations of the country where it is physically located, which can affect the choice of cloud backup provider and data storage location.

PRO (Recovery point objective)

RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is the maximum amount of data loss that a company is willing to accept in the event of a disaster.

RTO (Recovery Time Objective)

RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is the amount of time it takes to recover a system after a disaster. These metrics are important to consider when determining the appropriate cloud backup solution for a business, as they help determine the necessary frequency and speed of backups.

Bare Metal recovery

a process of restoring a complete system or server from a backup onto new or empty hardware. In the context of cloud backup, it refers to the ability to restore a failed system to its original state on new hardware or a virtual machine instance. This process involves restoring the entire operating system, application, and data configurations as a whole, rather than restoring individual files or folders.

Appliance-free direct-to-cloud:

our cloud backup solution does not require any additional hardware or appliances to be installed on-site. Data is backed up directly to the cloud, providing a simple and cost-effective backup solution.

Applications & databases

Many businesses rely on specialized software applications and databases to run their operations. Cloud backup solutions can also protect these critical components, ensuring that they can be quickly restored in the event of a disaster.

Workstations and documents

our Cloud backup solutions can also protect individual workstations and important documents from data loss. This can include files, folders, emails, and other data stored on desktops, laptops, or mobile devices.

ransomware protection

with our cloud backup even if your local backups are compromised by ransomware or other types of malware, you can still recover your data from the cloud backup. This is because the cloud backup is stored in a separate location and is not directly accessible from your local network, which can help prevent ransomware from infecting or encrypting your cloud backups.

Image Stand By

a pre-configured and ready-to-use virtual machine that can be launched in the event of a system failure or disaster. This standby image is a snapshot of the system's state at a specific point in time, and it can be used to quickly restore the system to its previous state, minimizing downtime and data loss. Standby images are an important component of a robust disaster recovery plan.

optional local storage

optional ability to store a copy of backed up data on local hardware in addition to storing it in the cloud. This allows for quicker recovery times and increased accessibility to the data in the event of an internet outage or other disruption to cloud access. Optional local storage can be a useful feature for businesses that require immediate access to their data in the event of an emergency or needed onsite backup for compliance.
