When this becomes urgent

Most continuity plans get written after the outage

Resilience gets attention when someone asks a question nobody can answer.

A client or contract requires it

A tender, client or regulator asks for a documented business continuity plan, and evidence it has been tested.

The insurer asks

Cyber insurance renewals now ask how fast you can recover, and when you last proved it.

The board asks how long you'd be down

Directors want an answer in hours and dollars, not an assurance that the backups are running.

A near miss

An outage, ransomware scare or office closure shows the plan only exists in people’s heads.

What resilience planning covers

The decisions leadership owns

Planning and advisory for the people who carry the risk. The day-to-day backup and recovery behind it is managed by us too.

Business impact analysis

Which systems and processes matter most, and what an hour without them costs.

Recovery time and point objectives

How quickly each system must be back and how much data you can afford to lose.

Business continuity plan

Who does what, in what order, to keep the business running during a disruption.

Disaster recovery plan

The technical runbook for restoring systems and data to the agreed objectives.

Ransomware and cyber incident response

Decisions, contacts and steps agreed before an attack, not during one.

Tabletop exercises and recovery testing

Plans rehearsed with leadership and restores tested on a schedule.

Supplier and cloud dependencies

What happens when a key supplier or cloud platform fails, and your fallback.

Board resilience reporting

Resilience position and test results reported to the board in plain terms.

Managed backup and recovery

Backup and recovery you've tested, not just hoped for

A plan only works if the data is there. We run the backup and recovery behind it as a managed service, and test it on a regular schedule.

Microsoft 365 backup

Mail, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams backed up outside Microsoft’s own retention.

Server and cloud backup

Servers and cloud workloads protected with scheduled backups and clear retention.

Immutable, off-site copies

Copies that cannot be altered or deleted, held away from your production systems.

Backups protected from ransomware

Backup systems isolated and hardened so an attacker cannot encrypt them too.

Recovery tested on a regular schedule

Restores run and timed regularly, with results recorded.

Evidence for insurers and auditors

Backup and test records ready for the questions insurers and auditors ask.

What you receive

A plan you have tested
