Business Back-up Solutions Provided by TechCM

Increasingly, businesses rely on computers, servers and data centers to run their company. Included in these components are communication systems, financial solutions and production software. Businesses often insure buildings, liability and employee negligence but forget the most critical component of their infrastructure – their data.

Unfortunately, most businesses do not realize the need for data security until it is too late. A computer failure, natural disaster, accident, innocent mistake or vicious attack can destroy years of data. Businesses are often crippled by these occurrences, sometimes to the point of closure. A company with a solid, secure back-up process in place can rest assured that their data, and their business, is safe.

We provide business data backup solutions to protect your data and your business. Generally we recommend a combination of on-site and off-site (online) solutions. This protects your company at two levels for the ideal data storage solution. We use a variety of providers and will help your company craft a back-up plan that fits within your needs.

Why do you need two types of back-up solutions? Although a good practice, it is not sufficient to just back-up to an on-site solution (external hard drive, disc, etc.) Physical damage or theft at your site could destroy these types of back-ups. A truly good back-up plan should, at minimum, encompass:

• Daily, or more frequent, scheduled back-ups of all new data on your server or network.
• Regularly scheduled (weekly if preferred) full back-ups of your entire data set.
• Security. All back-ups should be password protected and stored in a place that is accessible only to authorized personnel.
• An off-site or online solution. This insures that should something happen at your site, your data is safe.

At TechCM we understand the security and back-up needs of businesses. Our extensive client-base includes many doctors and lawyers who rely on our services to protect their sensitive, private data. We offer back-up solutions that are easy-to-use, can be automated and are completely secure. Whether you need a backup for a single computer or have a server with a network of workstations, we can provide you with a back-up solution that best fits your company.
