BACKUP & DISASTER RECOVERY

When Something Goes Wrong, Your Business Needs a Way Back.

BACKUP IS ONLY THE BEGINNING

Having a Backup Is Not the Same as Being Able to Recover.

Hardware fails. Files get deleted. Accounts are compromised. Software breaks. Ransomware can damage or encrypt data. Even a perfectly normal mistake can take important information offline.

A useful backup strategy considers what needs to be protected, how often it changes, how long copies should be retained, where those copies are stored, and how the business will actually restore them when something goes wrong.


The goal is not simply to have copies of your data. It is to know how your business gets back to work.
BACKUP & RECOVERY SERVICES

Protection Built Around the Data Your Business Depends On

Different systems require different recovery strategies. Molten Core helps identify what matters, where the data lives, and what type of protection makes sense for the business.

Workstation & File Backup

Protect important files and business data stored on computers, shared folders, and other user-accessible systems.

Server & Infrastructure Backup

Backup strategies for servers, virtual machines, network storage, and other systems that support daily business operations.

Microsoft 365 Data Protection

Additional protection for important Microsoft 365 data such as business files, mail, and cloud services where appropriate to the environment.

Local & Cloud Backup

Use local and off-site storage appropriately so one failure, device, or location does not represent the only copy of critical information.

Retention & Version History

Keep historical versions and retention appropriate to the way your business works so accidentally deleted, changed, or overwritten information has a better chance of being recovered.

Recovery Planning & Testing

Document how important systems are restored and verify that backups can actually be used when recovery is needed.

MORE THAN COPYING FILES

A Good Backup Strategy Plans for Failure Before It Happens

Backup becomes valuable when it is part of a larger recovery plan. That means understanding what the business can afford to lose, what needs to come back first, and what happens if the original system is unavailable.

Multiple Copies


Important data should not depend on one computer, one drive, or one location. Multiple copies reduce the chance that a single failure destroys both the original and the backup.

Off-Site Protection


A local backup may not help if the entire location is affected. Off-site or cloud-based copies provide another recovery path when local systems are unavailable.

Recovery Priorities


Not every file or system has the same importance. Recovery planning identifies what should be restored first so effort is focused where the business needs it most.

Tested Recovery


A successful backup job does not automatically mean recovery will work. Restores should be checked periodically so problems are discovered before an emergency.

HOW BACKUP & RECOVERY WORKS

Protect the Data. Plan the Recovery. Verify the Result.

01

– Assess

We identify where important business data lives, how often it changes, what systems depend on it, and what is already being backed up.

02

– Protect

Appropriate local, cloud, or off-site backup methods are configured around the systems and recovery requirements of the business.

03

– Verify

Backup status, retention, and recovery capability are reviewed so failures and gaps are more likely to be discovered before the data is needed.

04

– Recover

When something goes wrong, the recovery plan guides restoration of the affected files, systems, or services based on business priorities.

WHY BACKUP & RECOVERY MATTERS

Be Ready for the Day Something Goes Wrong

Less Data Loss

Regular backups reduce how much business information may be lost when systems fail or files are damaged.

Faster Recovery

A defined recovery process helps reduce the time spent figuring out what to do after a failure.

Protection From Mistakes

Previous versions and retained copies can help recover from accidental deletion, overwriting, and other everyday errors.

Recovery After Ransomware

Protected backup copies can provide an important recovery path when production data is encrypted or damaged.

Greater Business Continuity

Recovery planning helps the business understand how critical systems and information can be restored after a disruption.

Backup is part of a bigger security strategy.

Frequently asked questions

Questions About Backup & Disaster Recovery

The answer depends on how your organization works. Important files, shared data, servers, business applications, cloud services, and other information required to operate should be identified and protected according to their importance and how frequently they change.

Backup frequency depends on how much data your business can reasonably afford to lose. Systems where information changes constantly may need more frequent protection than archives or files that rarely change.

Not necessarily. Synchronization and cloud storage can help make information available across devices, but changes or deletions may also synchronize. A dedicated backup provides separate recovery copies and retention designed specifically for restoration.

Not every environment requires the same design, but keeping recovery copies in more than one place can reduce the risk of a single device, failure, incident, or location affecting every copy of the data.

Backups can provide an important recovery option after ransomware or other destructive incidents, provided usable copies remain protected and available. Backup is one part of ransomware preparation and should be combined with broader cybersecurity controls.

Retention depends on business requirements, the type of data, how frequently it changes, recovery needs, and any legal or regulatory obligations that may apply. Molten Core can help design retention around the environment rather than using one policy for every system.

Backup status should be monitored and recovery should be tested periodically. A backup that reports success is only useful if the required data can actually be restored when needed.

Pricing depends on the amount of data, number of protected systems, retention requirements, storage method, recovery expectations, and complexity of the environment. We design the solution around what the business actually needs to protect.
