When backup breaks continuity.

Legacy backup tools weren’t designed for modern threats. Today’s cyber attacks expose gaps in backup and recovery, from unverified restore points to controls that fail when systems are under attack. When backups can be accessed, altered or corrupted, recovery slows and continuity plans fall apart – just when they’re needed most.

Backups stored in reachable environments are often compromised during attacks, limiting recovery options.
Legacy tools frequently lack immutability, making restore points unreliable after ransomware or destructive events.
Tape and on-premise media slow restores, extending outages and delaying the return of critical systems.
Regulators and insurers now expect stronger backup controls, reporting and proof of recoverability.

Value you see

Stronger protection for critical data.

Our data backup as a service improves recovery reliability and compliance, and reduce your risk.

Protect critical data

Immutable, offsite copies and trusted restore points reduce the chance of losing critical data during corruption or compromise.

Faster recovery

Disk-based backups avoid tape delays and help you achieve shorter, more predictable recovery times when systems fail.

Data retrieval on demand

Long-term retention, data retrieval on demand and secure offsite storage support audit-ready reporting and legal discovery.

Lower operational burden

End-to-end backup management with 24×7 award-winning Australian support, reducing internal workload and recovery risk.

No capacity constraints

Your backup environment grows with your data, removing storage limits, hardware refresh cycles and surprise capacity issues.

Cyber insurance readiness

Immutable controls and validated restore points help demonstrate the recoverability standards expected by cyber insurers.

Common use cases

How we keep your data safe.

See how we help you recover reliably and manage backups across all workloads.

Safe recovery after an attack

When systems are compromised, backup quality determines whether recovery is safe. We deliver immutable, offsite backups and trusted restore points so you recover confidently without reinfection or data corruption.

Modernising legacy backup systems

Outdated tape or on-premise backup tools slow down recovery and create protection gaps. We replace legacy systems with fast, disk-based backups that reduce failure risk, improve RTOs and simplify day-to-day operations.

Simplifying audit and compliance requirements

APRA, ISO and legal discovery processes demand reliable retention and clear reporting. We centralise your backup policies, provide long-term offsite storage and give you audit-ready visibility across your environment.

Protecting hybrid and cloud workloads

As workloads spread across on-premise, cloud and SaaS, backup becomes fragmented and hard to govern. We unify protection with consistent policies, offsite immutability and recovery options across every environment.

What we offer

Data backup services for every workload.

Protect every workload with reliable, secure and flexible cloud-based backup services.

Server backup

Full and incremental backups for servers, protecting file systems and application data with policy-based retention.

VM backup

Image-level backups for virtual machines in our sovereign environments, captured via API for fast, consistent recovery.

Colocation backup

Backup services for workloads in our data centres, with secure offsite storage and flexible recovery options.

You’re in good company.

“Reliable data is the start of every good recovery. When corruption, human error or a provider issue hits, the quality of your backups decides how quickly you can get back on your feet.”

Data backup services FAQs.

What are data backup services?

Data backup services protect your organisation’s data by creating secure, recoverable copies that can be restored after corruption, cyber incidents, human error or system failure. Backups form the foundation of resilience by ensuring data can be recovered safely and reliably.

What is Backup as a Service (BaaS)?

Backup as a Service (BaaS) is a fully managed model where backups are monitored, maintained and tested for you. It removes the operational burden of running backup infrastructure internally while improving reliability, security and audit readiness.

Are these cloud-based backup services?

Yes. Our cloud-based backup services use secure, offsite storage to protect data across on-premises, private cloud and public cloud environments. Backups are stored immutably and managed centrally to support reliable recovery.

How does Azure backup work with your services?

We provide Azure-independent backup for Azure workloads, ensuring data remains protected even if the primary platform is unavailable. This improves resilience and avoids reliance on native Azure backup alone.

Can you back up data from the cloud and SaaS platforms?

Yes. We back up data from cloud and SaaS platforms as well as traditional infrastructure. This ensures critical business data can be recovered independently of the source platform if access is lost or data is compromised.
