Backup Audit · Portsmouth

Backup Audit in Portsmouth

A backup audit for Portsmouth organisations, beginning with what is not backed up at all. The cloud platforms holding your email, files and customer records protect their infrastructure, not your data — deletions and corruptions propagate faithfully, and the vendor's retention window is shorter than most organisations assume.

Why this comes up

The problem

Servers are backed up nightly, the customer records in the cloud CRM are not backed up by anyone.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Coverage established across everything, including the platforms nobody thought about
  • Vendor retention checked against your own recovery requirements
  • Copies verified as separated — a backup reachable from a compromised network is not one
  • Immutability assessed, since ransomware now targets the backups first
  • Retention compared against how long an intrusion can go unnoticed
  • Recovery times measured against what the business would actually tolerate

Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what backup audit would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

Backup Audit in Portsmouth — common questions

Is cloud data really not backed up?
Not in the sense organisations mean. Providers replicate for availability and offer a limited recovery window for deletions, but a mailbox emptied months ago, a record overwritten by a bad import, or a departed user's files removed on schedule are frequently gone for good.
Why does immutability matter now?
Because attackers delete backups before encrypting anything. Ransomware operators specifically look for backup systems and credentials, so copies that cannot be altered or removed for a fixed period are what turns a catastrophe into an expensive weekend.
How long should retention be?
Longer than an intrusion can hide. Compromises are frequently discovered weeks after they began, and a backup cycle keeping only two weeks means every available copy contains the attacker — so retention is a security decision as much as a storage one.
What about recovery time?
It is usually the finding that surprises people most. Having a backup and being able to restore forty terabytes over an available connection within a working day are different propositions, and an organisation that has never measured the second one is planning around a number nobody has verified.
Do you work with businesses across Hampshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Portsmouth and the surrounding Hampshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Portsmouth businesses do you usually work with?
Port, ferry and defence logistics systems, plus visitor operations for the waterfront attractions. Beyond that we work across Marine & Defence, Ports & Ferries, Higher Education, Retail and Tourism.
Do you cover the areas around Portsmouth?
Yes — we work throughout South East, including Southampton, Chichester, Brighton. Portsmouth is an urban area of roughly 240,000+, and we take on work across the wider Hampshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
