Data backups

The importance of your data is unquantifiable and the risks of data loss through poor processes and lack of disaster recovery planning can be too great a risk. Simply ask yourself the question: what would happen if you lost all the data on your server? Could your business recover and if so, how long would it take?

Many companies may be changing their tapes daily, sending them to a secure location, frequently running their head cleaning tapes... but... how often to you restore data? Are some of the files being backed up already corrupted? Are you placing the following days tape into the server when it is actually requiring a second tape for the previous days backup?

We will check that not only are your back-ups being effectively run, but there are processes in place for ensuring that back-ups are properly managed, and that appropriate data is being backed up.

We will check that: -

• As of the CSMR date, business critical data is actually included in the backup routine;
  
• Back-up devices are functioning properly: e.g., tape heads are clean; appropriate backup media is used; tapes are still functional
  
• The Back-up process is being implemented correctly, e.g. tape changes and how often, how often are the drive-heads cleaned, where are the tapes stored, what is the actual routine (e.g., daily, monthly annual back-ups being completed?).
  
• That the capacity of your current backup device adequate for your backup needs.
  
• The back-up does not include needless data or old data that could be archived

If necessary, Wavex can suggest alternate backup solutions or changes to each of the above.

! For an additional cost Wavex will use a removable USB hard-drive to perform a full backup of all your data and emails, leaving you with a drive providing the means of restoring all your data. This drive can be connected to most computers for data recovery.

And it will only takes about an hour (depending on the complexity of your site) to setup everything! You could become a valued Wavex customer within the next couple of days. We support customers with anything from 5 to several hundred users.
