Why Managed Backups? 
Managed backups provide regular, secured backup of your data. In the event of device failure, natural disaster or malware attacks, data can most often be restored without experiencing significant downtime or financial loss.

• Cost effective
• Professionally managed
• Secured according to industry standards
• Verified and recoverable

Protecting your data from everyday calamities

These calamities include:

• IT failures and outages
• IT device theft or loss
• Extreme weather and other events
• Data corruption issues
• Ransomware attacks

Safeguarding Your Data 
Types of data you need to back up:

• Files
• Servers
• Desktops / Laptops 
• SaaS applications such as M365
• Databases
• Applications
• Cloud-Hosted Data (servers on AWS or Azure)

Required frequency of backups depends upon:

• The type of data you are backing up. 
• The frequency of changes to the data 
• The operational importance of the data 
• The data compliance standards of your industry

94% of severe data loss incidents “sink” the business.
On average, ransomware victims lose 35% of their data. 
Hardware failure accounts for 40% of data loss cases.

Backup methods 

• Do-it-yourself backups - This method can be tedious and time-consuming, as well as potentially unreliable at recovery time.
• 3rd party backup solutions - Automated 3rd party backup applications can fail without professional oversight and management.
• Managed backups - An outsourced, professional option, backups managed and verified by technicians. 

Cloud-first vs. local-only backup solutions 
Local Only

• At your location 
• Greater physical control 
• Too expensive for smaller organizations 
• Vulnerable to physical theft and damage 
• Vulnerable to malware on the local network 
• Requires manual maintenance and ongoing updates and patching
• Requires server and storage management, OS purchases, and sometimes proprietary appliances

Cloud based

• Fully managed SaaS application with a multi-tenant web console
• Fully managed cloud storage that makes local storage optional
• Professionally managed physical and logical security
• Professional monitoring, testing and verification of recoverability
• Cost-effective to scale
