Backup & Business Continuity Plan
Answer one question with confidence: if your main server died tonight, when would you be trading again?
Almost every business believes it has backups. Far fewer have ever tested a restore, and fewer still know how many hours of work they would lose or how long a full recovery would take.
This engagement establishes the real position. I verify what is actually being backed up, test whether it restores, and quantify your true recovery point and recovery time. Then we build a continuity plan that matches what your business can genuinely tolerate — not a theoretical ideal.
The deliverable includes a written recovery runbook, so a recovery does not depend on one person being reachable.
What you get
- Verified restore test — proof your backups actually work
- Measured recovery point and recovery time, stated in hours
- Continuity plan matched to what your operations can tolerate
- Written recovery runbook your team can follow without you
This is for you if
- You have never actually tested restoring from a backup
- Production or dispatch stops when a particular system goes down
- Your recovery process lives in one person’s head
How it works
What happens during Backup & Business Continuity Plan
A defined sequence, so you know what to expect at every stage.
-
1
Map what should be protected
We identify the systems and data that actually stop the business if lost, and how much downtime each can genuinely tolerate.
-
2
Verify what is really being backed up
I check the current backup configuration against that list — this step alone regularly finds critical gaps nobody knew about.
-
3
Test the restore, not just the backup
A real restore is performed to a separate location and timed, so recovery point and recovery time are measured facts, not assumptions.
-
4
Continuity plan & runbook
A written recovery runbook your team can follow without you, matched to what your operations can genuinely tolerate.
