What We Protect

Enterprise-Grade Backup Without the Enterprise Price Tag

Every layer of your business data — endpoints, servers, cloud workloads — protected, verified, and instantly recoverable.

3-2-1 Backup Strategy

Three copies of your data: one local on-site, one offsite at a secondary facility, one in the cloud. If any single copy fails — hardware failure, fire, flood, or ransomware — the other two remain intact and ready to restore.

Immutable Cloud Backups

Write-once, read-many (WORM) technology means even a ransomware actor with admin credentials cannot encrypt or delete your cloud snapshots. Your recovery points are cryptographically locked for the full retention window.

Veeam & Acronis Integration

IT Center deploys and manages industry-leading Veeam Backup & Replication and Acronis Cyber Protect platforms — covering physical servers, virtual machines, and SaaS workloads (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace) under a single managed pane.

AWS S3 & Azure Blob Cloud Replication

Your backups replicate automatically to AWS S3 and Microsoft Azure Blob Storage — geo-redundant, encrypted in transit and at rest. Regardless of what happens to your office, your data exists in multiple geographically separated cloud regions.

Quarterly Test Restores

A backup you have never tested is not a backup — it is a guess. IT Center performs documented quarterly restore tests on your critical data sets and delivers a written verification report. You always know your recovery is real, not theoretical.

Monthly Health & Restore Reports

Every backup job is monitored 24/7 by our NOC. You receive a monthly health report covering job success rates, retention coverage, last successful restore tests, and any anomalies — plus immediate alerting if a critical job fails. No mystery, no hand-waving.

Post-Breach Protocol

IT Center Ransomware Recovery Plan

When ransomware strikes, you need a tested playbook — not a panicked search for backups. IT Center's 3-phase incident response protocol activates immediately.

Phase 1 — Containment

Isolate & Assess

Within minutes of detection, affected systems are isolated from the network to prevent lateral spread. IT Center engineers identify the attack vector, scope of encryption, and confirm backup integrity before any recovery action begins.

Phase 2 — Recovery

Restore from Immutable Snapshots

Clean recovery points from immutable cloud storage are selected. Systems are rebuilt to a verified pre-infection state — either on clean hardware or into a secure cloud environment — with RTO targets met before business opens the next morning.

Phase 3 — Hardening

Close the Gap & Document

The original attack vector is patched or removed. Endpoint security is hardened, privilege access reviewed, and a full incident report generated for insurance, compliance, and legal purposes. Learn about our MSSP services →

Recovery Objectives

RPO & RTO — What They Mean for Your Business

Two numbers define your disaster readiness. IT Center sets aggressive targets and backs them with tested infrastructure.

RPO
Recovery Point Objective

RPO answers: "How much data can we afford to lose?" It defines the maximum age of a backup you can restore from before the loss becomes unacceptable.

IT Center targets an RPO of under 4 hours for managed clients — meaning your backups run frequently enough that the worst-case data loss is limited to a fraction of a business day, not an entire week of transactions.

A manufacturer running hourly backups versus daily backups has a 23-hour advantage when ransomware strikes at end of day.

RTO
Recovery Time Objective

RTO answers: "How fast can we be operational again?" It measures the maximum downtime window your business can tolerate before the financial and operational impact becomes critical.

IT Center targets an RTO of under 2 hours for critical systems — achievable through pre-staged cloud failover environments, documented runbooks, and tested restore procedures that execute without guesswork under pressure.

Businesses without a documented RTO report average downtime of 18–27 hours following a ransomware event — Coveware, 2024.

Business Impact

Backup Failure Is a Revenue Problem

Downtime is not an IT inconvenience — it is a direct line-item loss. The numbers are not abstract.

Industry Data — 2024

The True Cost of Unplanned Downtime for SMBs

For small and mid-sized businesses in professional services, manufacturing, healthcare, and distribution, downtime is not a technology problem — it is a revenue, reputation, and compliance problem measured in thousands of dollars per hour.

$8,600 Average hourly downtime cost for SMBs — Gartner
21 Days Average ransomware recovery time without managed backup — Coveware 2024
60% Of small businesses that close within 6 months of a major data loss event — FEMA

The math is simple: A managed backup and DR program from IT Center costs a fraction of a single day of downtime. Clients on the $300/computer user/month Unlimited MSP plan receive full backup management, quarterly test restores, and monthly health reporting — included, not upsold.
