Ransomware, server failure, human error, disaster. Every business faces it, one day. What changes is what happens next.
We've thought it through before you had to; so you don't have to think it through under pressure.
An email, a click, and your data is encrypted by a third party. It happens several times a week in Switzerland — mostly to SMEs, not large corporations.
A hard drive gives out, a server won't restart. Without a recent backup and a recovery plan, getting back up can take days.
A deleted file, an overwritten database, a migration gone wrong. Human error remains the leading cause of data loss.
Fire, water damage, prolonged power outage. Rare, but enough to end a business if no copy exists elsewhere.
The architecture we put in place depends on your situation — local infrastructure or hosted with us. Either way, the principle is the same: no single copy, no single location. And nothing leaves Switzerland.
Having backups is good. Knowing how quickly you can get back up, and how recent your data will be when you do — that's what really matters when the incident happens.
We define two simple parameters with you, based on the criticality of each system. Some can wait a few hours. Others — billing, client records, production — can't.
How much time passes between the incident and the moment you can resume work. We define it per system — not a single figure for the whole company.
If you restart now, how many hours behind will your data be? Hourly, daily, or continuous backups — we choose together based on what you can afford to lose.
Email, accounting, ERP, shared files — we map your systems by criticality level and calibrate the recovery plan accordingly.
Most businesses discover their gaps on the day of the incident. Too late to choose calmly, too late to negotiate, too late to recover what was lost.
Working on continuity ahead of time means deciding, with a clear head, what you're willing to accept, and building a proportionate response.
Your data stays in Switzerland. Geneva datacenter, downtown offices — nothing ever leaves Swiss territory.
Everything is encrypted. Your backups are unreadable without your key — in transit, at rest, everywhere.
You decide the retention period. 7 days, 30 days, longer — based on your legal obligations and risk tolerance.
The recovery plan is tested. A backup that's never been restored is a backup you can't be sure works.
A one-hour conversation is often enough to identify what's missing and define an architecture proportionate to your business.
