The risk
Plan for a disaster as a matter of when, not if
In Cayman, “disaster” doesn’t only mean a hurricane. Ransomware, a compromised account or an accidental deletion can stop a business just as quickly — and businesses without a tested recovery plan and working off-site backups may never fully recover.
Every organisation is different, so we work with you to understand what you can’t afford to lose, how quickly you need to be back up, and the right mix of backup, hosting and recovery to get you there.

Everything you need to get back to work

Backup & recovery questions
Where exactly is our data stored?
Backups and hosted systems are held in a hurricane-rated data centre in the Cayman Islands. We won’t move your backup data off-island without your written agreement, and we’ll always tell you where data under our control is stored.
Microsoft already stores our data. Why back it up?
Microsoft keeps the service running, but deleted files, ransomware and compromised accounts are your problem. An independent, three-year backup means you can restore what’s lost, whatever caused it.
How often do you test our backups?
We monitor every backup job and investigate failures, and we carry out test restores at least quarterly.
Can we keep a copy outside Cayman as well?
Yes. Off-island backup is available as a secondary copy or as an alternative, depending on your requirements.
How long could you be offline?
Let’s find out — and make sure the answer is “not long”.
