Business-aligned recovery

A Backup Is Only Valuable If It Can Restore the Business

Hardware failure, ransomware, deletion and cloud incidents can interrupt critical work. ITFR designs backup and recovery around systems, data, recovery time and business dependencies, then monitors and tests the protection rather than assuming successful jobs equal successful recovery.

✓Workload and data assessment
Identify critical servers, endpoints, applications, data and recovery dependencies.

✓Backup design
Select suitable frequency, retention, storage, encryption and separation for each workload.

✓Monitoring and remediation
Review backup jobs, failures, capacity and issues requiring technical action.

✓Recovery testing
Test agreed files, systems or recovery processes and document the results.

✓Ransomware resilience
Use isolation, immutability and separate credentials where suitable to reduce backup compromise.

✓Disaster recovery planning
Define restoration sequence, recovery responsibilities and infrastructure requirements for major outages.

The result: backup that is monitored, recoverable and connected to how quickly the business needs systems and data restored.

Benefits at a glance

Reduced Data Loss

Use suitable backup frequency and retention for critical business information.

Faster Recovery

Prepare recovery priorities, access and restoration methods before an outage.

Ransomware Resilience

Separate and protect backup systems from common attack paths.

Tested Confidence

SECURE IT · BACKUP & DISASTER RECOVERY

Choose the Right Recovery Model

Choose managed backup for reliable day-to-day protection or a broader backup and disaster recovery model for critical systems and business continuity.

Use the arrows or swipe sideways to view every plan.

Match Recovery Protection to Business Impact

Not every workload needs the same backup frequency, retention or recovery time.

ITFR can combine local, cloud, immutable and disaster recovery options according to data value, outage tolerance and technical dependencies.

You invest in faster and stronger recovery where interruption would cause the greatest harm.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Your backup and recovery questions, answered

What is the difference between backup and disaster recovery?

Backup provides recoverable copies of agreed data or systems. Disaster recovery also considers recovery infrastructure, sequencing, dependencies and the time required to restore business operations.

Can you cover on-premises and cloud workloads?

ITFR can scope supported physical, virtual, endpoint and cloud workloads. Coverage and exclusions are confirmed against your environment and recovery needs.

How do you assess ransomware recovery readiness?

A review can examine backup isolation, credentials, immutability options and clean recovery dependencies. Controls and testing should reflect the supported platform and agreed risk priorities.

How do we choose recovery targets?

Start with the business impact of losing access to each service and its data. ITFR can help translate those priorities into a scoped backup, retention, restoration and testing approach.
