Backup & Disaster Recovery

Backup and recovery solutions combining immutable storage, disaster recovery, replication, business continuity, continuous monitoring and tested recovery.

Veeam, Veritas, and immutable cloud-backup deployments for Melbourne professional services firms and Victorian healthcare providers – quarterly recovery drills, monitored jobs, and tested DR runbooks, not just nightly runs and crossed fingers.

CORE CAPABILITIES
Backup Architecture & Design
3-2-1 backup architecture with immutable copies, offsite replication, and encryption – sized to your data volumes, RTO/RPO targets, and compliance obligations.
Enterprise Backup Solutions
Veeam, Veritas, and Rubrik deployment across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments – with tenant isolation and vendor-native integration for Microsoft 365 and virtualisation platforms.
Immutable Backup Storage
Air-gapped and immutable backup repositories – Veeam Hardened Repository, S3 Object Lock, and vendor WORM storage – so ransomware can't modify or delete your recovery points.
Disaster Recovery & Replication
DR runbooks with RTOs and RPOs mapped to business impact, and continuous replication across sites – including Azure Site Recovery, VMware Site Recovery Manager, and Veeam Replication.
Business Continuity & Recovery Planning
BCP documentation, crisis management procedures, stakeholder communication plans, and recovery playbooks – tested against realistic incident scenarios, not shelf-ware.
Backup Monitoring & Management
Monitored backup jobs with alerting on failures, capacity drift, and retention breaches – plus ongoing management of policies, license optimisation, and quarterly health reviews.
Recovery Testing & Validation
Quarterly restoration drills, tabletop exercises, and full-scale DR tests with documented results – proving backups actually restore before you need them to.
Cloud & Hybrid Backup
Microsoft 365 backup, Azure and AWS workload backup, and cross-cloud replication – plus hybrid patterns where on-prem primary backs up to cloud secondary for cost-effective offsite protection.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What organisations ask about backup & disaster recovery.

How is Essential Eight 'Daily Backups' different from just having backups?

Essential Eight requires backups to be tested, retained for the required period, isolated from production, and protected from being modified or deleted by ransomware. Many SMEs have backup jobs running but no proof those backups would actually restore. We close that gap.

What's the difference between RTO and RPO?

RTO = Recovery Time Objective: how long after an outage before systems are back. RPO = Recovery Point Objective: how much data loss is acceptable (e.g., 1 hour of transactions). Both must be defined per system, not set globally – your finance database and your file share have different tolerances.

Do you back up Microsoft 365?

Yes – third-party M365 backup (Veeam, AvePoint, or similar) for Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams. Microsoft's native retention is not a backup. Recommended for any organisation with data retention obligations under Privacy Act, ACNC, or sector-specific regulation.

How often should we test backup restores?

Quarterly tabletop or partial restore at a minimum – annual full DR drill is best practice. Untested backups have a high failure rate at the moment you actually need them – and ransomware now specifically targets backup infrastructure first.
