Backup and DR questions

Straight answers on testing, retention and ransomware.

Still unsure? Talk to an engineer

How often are backups tested?

Every quarter at minimum. Critical systems can be tested monthly. Each test is documented with pass or fail results and the actual time to recover, and the results feed into your quarterly vCIO review.

What is the difference between image and file backups?

An image backup captures a whole server, including the operating system and apps, so it can be restored in one step. A file backup captures single files and folders for quick, small restores. We run both because different problems need different fixes.

How long is backup data kept?

Our standard baseline keeps daily backups for 30 days, weekly backups for 90 days and monthly backups for one year. Longer retention, up to seven years, is available for HIPAA, legal hold and financial rules.

Can you recover from ransomware?

Yes. Backups live in isolated storage with credentials kept apart from your network, so ransomware cannot reach them. We restore clean data from the last good snapshot, usually within hours depending on how much data is involved.

Where are backups stored?

In AWS, Wasabi or similar enterprise cloud storage, in a different location from your office. All backup data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Do you back up Microsoft 365?

Yes. AvePoint backup protects Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams. Microsoft keeps its service running, but it does not keep long-term backup copies of your data.
