Bulletproof Backup and Disaster Recovery for Johannesburg SMEs
Stop relying on outdated hard drives and vulnerable local servers. We deploy enterprise-grade, direct-to-cloud backup solutions that isolate your data from ransomware and guarantee rapid recovery when disaster strikes.
DIRECT-TO-CLOUD ARCHITECTURE
Ransomware Can’t Infect What It Can’t Reach
Traditional backups rely on physical hard drives attached to your network. When ransomware hits, it encrypts those backups right alongside your live data. We utilize a Direct-to-Cloud architecture that immediately encrypts and sends your data off-site. Because your backups are physically isolated from your local network, they remain 100% immune to local ransomware attacks.
THE TRUE COST OF DOWNTIME
Why Local Backups Are No Longer Enough
The Legacy Backup Risk
Vulnerable to local ransomware infections that encrypt attached backup drives.
Hardware dependency means a physical server crash causes days of operational downtime.
Hidden costs of constantly buying, replacing, and managing on-premise storage arrays.
C360 True Resilience
Direct-to-cloud architecture physically isolates your backups from local cyber attacks.
Standby image recovery allows us to boot your server virtually to keep you running.
Fully managed deployment with predictable pricing and zero local hardware to maintain.
THE RECOVERY LIFECYCLE
Engineered for Unbreakable Business Continuity
Military-Grade Encryption
Your data is encrypted locally using AES-256 before it ever leaves your building, ensuring absolute privacy while in transit and at rest in our secure cloud vaults.
Standby Virtual Recovery
If your physical server dies, we don’t wait days for replacement parts. We can spin up a standby virtual image of your server in the cloud, getting your team back to work rapidly.
Automated Verification
A backup is useless if it fails to restore. Our systems automatically test and verify the integrity of your backups daily, so we know with absolute certainty that your data is recoverable.

THE LOGISTICS
Common Backup Questions
We already back up our data to an external hard drive. Isn't that enough?
External hard drives are highly prone to physical failure, theft, and worst of all, ransomware. If an employee clicks a malicious link, modern ransomware is designed to seek out and encrypt any attached hard drives, destroying your local backups instantly. True protection requires off-site, air-gapped cloud storage.
How long will it take to recover our systems if a disaster happens?
This depends entirely on the scale of the disaster, but our architecture is built for speed. If a single file is deleted, we can restore it in minutes. If an entire server crashes, our standby image recovery allows us to boot a virtual copy of your server to minimize operational downtime while the physical hardware is repaired.
Do you also back up our Microsoft 365 cloud data?
Yes. Microsoft operates on a “Shared Responsibility Model,” meaning they guarantee their platform stays online, but protecting your actual emails and files from accidental deletion or targeted attacks is your responsibility. We integrate complete Microsoft 365 retention into our backup strategy.
What happens if our office internet goes down? Will backups fail?
Our direct-to-cloud software is highly efficient. If the internet drops during a backup window, the system simply pauses and seamlessly resumes exactly where it left off the moment connectivity is restored, ensuring no data is corrupted or missed.
Is my company data secure in the cloud?
Absolutely. Your data is encrypted locally using military-grade AES-256 encryption before it ever leaves your server. It remains fully encrypted while in transit and while stored in our secure data centers. Only authorized personnel with strict multi-factor authentication can initiate a recovery.
