Backup & Disaster Recovery

Backups That Actually Restore

A backup is only useful if it is monitored, isolated from attackers and proven by a real restore test. We manage all three.

Overview

Ransomware changed what a backup has to survive

Attackers now look for backups first. Copies stored on the same network, using the same credentials, are often encrypted along with everything else.

Blue Guys IT designs backup around recovery goals: how much data you can afford to lose, how quickly you must be operating again, and what has to be protected from an attacker who already has domain access.
