What we do

Why our Backup Service is important for Government.

Backup is the final line of defense in a cyberattack lifecycle. If an attacker penetrates all other controls, the impact could still be reduced if all compromised files can be replaced with a clean backup in a timely manner.

With our solution you can backup files, or entire VM images, across your cloud services and data centres, and restore via our self service portal.

Flexible Self Service.

All customers have the ability to access their Portal and perform a Self Service Restoration at any time.
