Data Backup

Data BackupDocuments Backup & Backup Pro

Backup and recovery made simple. When the inevitable happens, rest assured you can quickly get back to a stable state. Whether it comes from a technology failure, a natural disaster, or just user error, Cyber Essentials Backup typically restores business continuity in minutes.

Employees often keep working copies and final versions of important business documents on their local machines. Losing a document can mean wasted time or even worse consequences if the data cannot be recovered.

Cyber Essentials Documents Backup is an efficient, lightweight solution that automatically finds business documents on workstations and backs them up twice a day. Additionally, the system offers self-service to end users—empowering them to recover documents temporarily lost due to accidents, ransomware, or hardware failures without needing to call the help desk.

Because Documents Backup doesn’t back up system states or operating systems, this feature can be offered at a lower price, providing you affordable protection against losing critical documents.

Cyber Essentials Documents Backup offers:
  • Affordable backup: Cyber Essentials Documents Backup is our lowest priced data protection offering, designed to provide a lightweight “insurance policy” against document loss.
  • Automatic deployment: Documents Backup can be deployed to each workstation automatically with no configuration required.
  • Document discovery: Documents Backup is engineered to automatically find business documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and word processing files wherever they are stored on a local hard drive.
  • Automatic daily backups: Documents are backed up twice a day automatically.
  • 28 days of insurance: Documents are held for 28 days. You can choose from 56 different backup versions if a recovery is needed.
  • End User self-service: Users can log in to search and select the documents they need to recover without involving technical staff.
