Most Business Backups Are Not Actually Working
The most dangerous belief in small business IT is "we have backups." Most businesses do have some form of backup — but a significant portion of those backups are not being monitored, have not been tested, contain corrupted or incomplete data, or are stored in a location that would be wiped out by the same event that caused the data loss. An untested backup is not a backup.
The Electpros audits your existing backup posture, identifies gaps, and deploys a managed backup solution that is monitored daily, tested regularly, and built to survive the scenarios most likely to affect your business — including ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion, and local disasters. We alert you if a backup job fails. We test restores on a schedule. You always know your data is protected.
- Backup job monitoring — we alert immediately if any job fails
- Regular restore testing — verified working, not just assumed
- Daily automated backups with configurable retention schedules
- Coverage for servers, workstations, and Microsoft 365 data
- Backup audit for businesses with existing but unmanaged backups

Local & Cloud Redundant Backup Architecture
A single backup location is a single point of failure. If your backup drive sits next to your server and the office floods, burns, or gets burglarized, both are gone. The Electpros deploys a 3-2-1 backup strategy: three copies of your data, on two different media types, with one stored off-site in the cloud. This means a local disaster cannot wipe out your ability to recover.
Local backup provides fast recovery for day-to-day incidents — restoring a deleted file or recovering a workstation takes minutes, not hours. Cloud backup provides protection against site-level events and is replicated to geo-redundant storage so your data survives even if an entire data center goes down. Both run automatically, every night, without any action required from your team.
- 3-2-1 backup strategy: local and cloud redundancy
- Fast local restore for individual files, folders, and full system recovery
- Cloud backup to geo-redundant offsite storage
- Encrypted backup transmission and storage
- Retention policies configured to your business requirements
- Microsoft 365 mailbox and OneDrive backup included
Ransomware-Resilient Backup
Standard backup solutions connected directly to your network can be encrypted by ransomware just like your regular files — attackers specifically look for and target backup systems. A ransomware-resilient backup architecture separates your backup storage from your primary network in a way that prevents ransomware from reaching it, and uses immutable storage so even if attackers gain access, they cannot modify or delete the backup data.
If ransomware does hit your business, a properly architected backup means you restore your data and get back to work — rather than paying a ransom with no guarantee you will actually get your files back. The Electpros designs and manages ransomware-resilient backup systems as a standard component of every managed IT plan.
- Air-gapped or isolated backup storage not accessible from primary network
- Immutable backup storage — data cannot be modified or deleted once written
- Rapid full-system restore to minimize ransomware downtime
- Incident response planning so your team knows exactly what to do
- Disaster recovery documentation for every managed client
- Test restore drills on a scheduled basis
