Backup & Disaster Recovery — Protect Your Data, Protect Your Business
Could Your Business Survive a Data Loss Event?
60% of small and mid-size businesses that experience significant data loss close within six months. Most of them had backups — they just couldn't restore them fast enough.
Your Backups Haven't Been Tested
Having backups isn't enough — you need to know they work. Over 30% of backup restores fail because nobody tested them. If you can't confirm your backups are restorable, you don't actually have backups.
Recovery Would Take Days, Not Hours
If your server died right now, how long would it take to get back to normal operations? If the answer is "days" or "I'm not sure," your disaster recovery plan needs work. Every hour of downtime costs you revenue, productivity, and customer confidence.
Ransomware Can Encrypt Your Backups Too
Modern ransomware actively seeks out and encrypts backup files. If your backups are on the same network as your production systems — or connected to the same credentials — they're vulnerable. You need air-gapped, immutable backups that attackers can't touch.
You Don't Have a Written Recovery Plan
When disaster strikes, panic sets in. Without a documented, tested recovery plan, decisions get made reactively. Who restores what first? What's the priority order? Where are the recovery keys? These questions need answers before the crisis, not during it.
Our Backup & Disaster Recovery Solutions
We design BDR solutions around two numbers: your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO). How fast do you need to be back online, and how much data can you afford to lose?
Image-Based Backup
Full server images captured every 15 minutes to 1 hour. Unlike file-level backups, image-based backup lets us spin up an entire server — OS, applications, data, and configuration — in minutes.

Your backups are replicated to a secure off-site cloud facility. If your office is destroyed by fire, flood, or other disaster, we can restore your entire environment from the cloud — anywhere with an internet connection.

Backup copies that cannot be modified or deleted — even by an administrator with full credentials. This protects against ransomware that targets backup infrastructure.

We automatically test backup restores every month and provide screenshot verification. You get proof that your backups work — not just a log entry that says the backup job completed.

A documented recovery plan that covers every scenario: server failure, ransomware, natural disaster, and human error. We test the plan annually and update it as your environment changes.

Why BrightWorks IT for BDR
4-Hour Recovery Guarantee
For clients on our managed BDR plans, we guarantee full server recovery within 4 hours. Most recoveries are completed in under 2 hours. That's the difference between a bad morning and a business-ending event.
100% Tested, 100% of the Time
Every backup is monitored for completion and verified monthly through automated restore testing. We don't assume backups work — we prove it. You get a report every month showing your backup health.
Ransomware-Proof Design
Our BDR architecture uses immutable storage, air-gapped replication, and separate authentication. Even if ransomware compromises your entire network, your backup copies remain intact and recoverable.
Industries We Serve
"Our file server crashed on a Thursday afternoon. BrightWorks IT had us back up and running by 6 PM the same day — with zero data loss. Without their BDR solution, we would have been down for a week waiting for new hardware."
