When something goes wrong, you'll be ready
Backups that are watched, tested, and built around how long your business can afford to be down.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
The Mid-South gets its share of disruptions: spring tornado warnings, summer storms, winter ice that knocks out power for days. Add hardware failures, accidental deletions, and ransomware, and the question isn't whether you'll need your backups. It's whether they'll work when you do.
Too many businesses find out the hard way that their backup stopped running months ago, only covered part of their data, or takes days to restore. ITS Backup & Disaster Recovery protects your data with automated backups of servers, workstations, and cloud data such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Copies are stored securely off-site, monitored daily, and regularly tested to prove they can be restored.
Most importantly, we build a recovery plan around your business. How much data can you afford to lose? How long can you be offline? We design your backup and recovery around those answers, so you know exactly what will happen if disaster strikes.
Who it's for
CPA firms and law firms that are expected to retain client records for years and can't afford to lose them.
Engineering and architecture firms whose project files represent years of irreplaceable work.
Financial advisory firms that need dependable records and a documented recovery capability.
Any business relying on Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace that assumes the cloud provider keeps full backups (most don't, at least not in the way you'd need).
What's included
Automated backups of servers, workstations, and critical data
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace backup: email, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Drive
Encrypted off-site and cloud storage
Daily backup monitoring and failure alerts
Regular restore testing with documented results [confirm frequency]
Ransomware-resistant, immutable backup copies
A written disaster recovery plan with recovery time and data-loss targets
Rapid restoration of files, systems, or entire servers
Two numbers that define your plan
Recovery Point Objective (RPO): how much recent data you could afford to lose, such as one hour or one day.
Recovery Time Objective (RTO): how quickly you need to be running again after an outage.
We'll help you set realistic targets for both, then build a backup and recovery setup that meets them.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Microsoft keeps its services running, but it isn't a full backup of your data. Deleted items are kept only for a limited time, and a ransomware attack or compromised account can damage files that then sync everywhere. A separate backup gives you independent copies you control.
-
It depends on your recovery targets. Critical servers and files can be backed up as often as every [X] hours or more frequently. We'll recommend a schedule based on how much data loss your business can tolerate.
-
We monitor every backup job daily and regularly perform test restores. You receive reports showing backup status and test results.
-
Yes. Immutable, off-site backup copies can't be altered or encrypted by ransomware. If an attack happens, we can restore systems from a clean point after the threat is contained.
-
Backup is having copies of your data. Disaster recovery is the plan and capability to get your business running again: which systems come back first, how long it takes, and who does what.
-
Because backups are stored off-site, your data stays safe. Depending on your plan, critical systems can be restored to new hardware or run in the cloud while your office recovers.
