Testing backups and data recovery procedures

Briefly about testing backups and data recovery procedures

Regular backups are only half the battle. Equally important—and often overlooked—is testing backups and data recovery proceduresWithout verification, you have no assurance that you'll be able to recover your files or get your systems up and running in the event of a failure. Our company not only creates backup strategies, but also tests their effectiveness, performing controlled data recovery on-premises or in the cloud.

Backup testing allows you to verify that data can be recovered within the expected timeframe, that media are functional, and that procedures are complete and up-to-date. This is especially important for critical systems, where downtime translates into real losses. We offer both one-time data recovery testsas well as regular verifications in accordance with security policies or ISO audits/GDPR.

Most common problems

Many companies assume that just because a backup is performed, everything is fine. Unfortunately, it's the restore test that reveals errors—for example, corrupted files or missing key data.

Companies often have manuals that are several years old. Changes to systems, data, or software render procedures obsolete.

Backup works for files, but not for systems. We're checking if it's possible to run backups on machines running Hyper-V, VMware, Veeam, etc.

Even if the backup is working, the recovery process takes too long and doesn't meet business requirements (e.g., RTO – Recovery Time Objective). We diagnose and optimize recovery times.

Data is recovered, but the files turn out to be unreadable or incomplete. We help detect and eliminate such situations.

No one knows exactly who should restore data and how in an emergency. We create and document the entire process, including role assignments.

Small business IT often lacks the operational space to perform a full backup test. We can do it for you—remotely or on-site.

Audit requirements often require periodic recovery testing. We provide full documentation and reports confirming test execution.
