When something goes wrong, be back up in hours, not weeks.
Ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion, natural disaster, any of them can bring your business to a halt. KairosMSP designs and manages backup and disaster recovery solutions for North Georgia businesses that need to survive the unexpected.
Most businesses don’t find out their backup failed until they need it
A backup that has never been tested is not a backup, it’s a hope. Ransomware attacks on small businesses have increased sharply in recent years, and the average downtime for a business without a solid recovery plan is measured in days, not hours. The cost isn’t just the ransom, it’s the lost revenue, staff time, and client trust while you’re offline.
Ransomware & Cyberattacks
Ransomware encrypts your files and demands payment to restore them. Without an isolated, immutable backup, your only options are paying the ransom or starting over. A proper BDR solution means you restore from a clean backup instead.
Hardware Failure
Hard drives fail. Servers die. It’s not a matter of if, it’s when. If your only copy of critical data lives on a single device, a failed drive means permanent data loss. Redundant, offsite backups eliminate that risk entirely.
Human Error & Accidental Deletion
Someone deletes an important folder. A misconfigured update wipes a database. These happen more often than ransomware attacks. Point-in-time recovery means you can restore exactly what was lost, down to a specific file or moment in time.
Backup and disaster recovery services for North Georgia businesses
Managed Business Backup
We design and manage a backup solution that follows the 3-2-1 rule, three copies of your data, on two different media types, with one stored offsite, so no single failure can wipe everything out.
- Server and workstation backup
- Local and cloud backup targets
- Automated daily backup scheduling
- Encrypted, offsite storage
Disaster Recovery Planning
A backup is only half the equation. A disaster recovery plan defines exactly how you restore operations, what gets restored first, in what order, and who is responsible for each step, so there’s no guesswork in a crisis.
- Recovery time objective (RTO) planning
- Recovery point objective (RPO) definition
- Documented DR runbook
- Annual DR plan reviews
Backup Testing & Verification
We don’t assume your backups work, we verify them. Regular test restores confirm your data is actually recoverable before you ever need it in a real emergency.
- Scheduled test restores
- Backup integrity verification
- Recovery time benchmarking
- Test results reporting
Microsoft 365 Backup
Microsoft 365 does not back up your data. Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive content can be permanently lost after the native retention window expires. We add a dedicated backup layer that protects your M365 data.
- Exchange Online backup
- SharePoint and OneDrive backup
- Teams data protection
- Point-in-time item recovery
Business Continuity
For businesses where downtime is truly not an option, business continuity solutions let you keep operating from a virtualized environment while your primary systems are being restored.
- Instant virtualization of failed servers
- Cloud failover environments
- Minimal downtime recovery
- Business continuity testing
Ransomware-Resilient Backup
Standard backups can be encrypted by ransomware too if they’re connected to your network. We implement immutable, air-gapped backup storage that ransomware cannot reach or encrypt.
- Immutable backup storage
- Air-gapped offsite copies
- Ransomware detection integration
- Clean restore point identification
From assessment to protected, a clear process every time
Most businesses have never had their backup strategy formally reviewed. We start there, understanding what you have, what you need, and where the gaps are before we touch anything.
Backup Assessment
We review your current backup setup, what’s being backed up, how often, where it’s stored, and whether it’s ever been tested. Most businesses are surprised by what we find.
RTO & RPO Definition
We work with you to define your recovery time objective (how long you can afford to be down) and your recovery point objective (how much data loss is acceptable), the two numbers that drive every BDR decision.
Solution Design
We design a backup and recovery solution that meets your RTO/RPO targets, fits your budget, and covers every system that matters to your business.
Deployment & Testing
We deploy the solution, run an initial test restore to verify everything works, and document your disaster recovery runbook, the step-by-step guide your team follows in an emergency.
Ongoing Management & Testing
We monitor your backups daily, alert on any failures, and run scheduled test restores so you always know your data is actually recoverable.
