Is Your Business Ready for the Unexpected?
Tornadoes, ransomware, theft, or a simple mistake — any of them can wipe out your business data. Here’s how to make sure they don’t wipe out your business.
If you run a business in the Oklahoma City metro, you already know the weather here doesn’t mess around. We plan for tornado season, we keep our eyes on the radar, and most of us have a plan when the sirens go off. But here’s a question worth asking: does your business have that same level of preparation for its data?
A tornado, a flood, a power surge, a ransomware attack, or even an employee accidentally deleting the wrong folder — any one of these can bring your business to a sudden halt. The difference between a bad week and a business-ending event often comes down to one thing: whether you had a solid backup and disaster recovery plan in place before it happened.
The threats are more varied than you think
Most business owners think about backup when they think about hackers. But the reality is the threats to your data come from many directions:
The 3-2-1 rule — the gold standard of backup
If you’ve never heard of the 3-2-1 backup rule, it’s the simplest framework for making sure your data is truly protected:
The 3-2-1 Backup Rule
If all your backups live in the same building, a tornado doesn’t care how many copies you have.
Don’t forget about your Microsoft 365 data
Here’s something that surprises a lot of business owners: Microsoft does not fully back up your Microsoft 365 data. Their responsibility ends at keeping the platform running — your emails, SharePoint files, OneDrive documents, and Teams conversations are largely your responsibility to protect.
Think about how much of your business now lives inside Microsoft Teams — conversations, shared files, meeting recordings, project notes. Most companies have no idea that data isn’t automatically protected against deletion or ransomware.
A proper backup solution covers all of it: your local file servers, your cloud data, your Microsoft 365 mailboxes, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams. If you’re not backing up all of those, you have gaps you may not even know about.
What we offer — flexible options for every business
Physical drive rotation and offsite storage — We come to you, swap out backup drives on a regular schedule, and store them securely offsite. Simple, reliable, and keeps a physical copy well away from any on-site disaster.
Feature-rich cloud backup — Our cloud backup solution covers your local data, cloud data, and your full Microsoft 365 environment including mailboxes, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams. Everything, in one place, automatically.
Full machine image backups — We don’t just back up your files — we back up entire machines. That means if a workstation or server dies, we can restore the whole system rapidly, getting you back up and running in hours instead of days.
Recovery speed matters as much as the backup itself
A backup you can’t restore quickly is only half a solution. Every hour your business can’t operate has a real dollar cost — in lost productivity, missed orders, and frustrated customers. The right disaster recovery plan isn’t just about having a copy of your data. It’s about how fast you can get back to business when something goes wrong.
For businesses here in the OKC metro — where a spring storm can go from “watches posted” to “direct hit” in under an hour — that speed can make all the difference.
Take 10 minutes to ask yourself these questions
When did we last test our backup restore? Do we have a copy of our data stored somewhere other than this building? Are our Microsoft 365 mailboxes and Teams data being backed up? If our main server failed today, how long would it take to get back online? If you’re not confident in your answers, it’s time to have a conversation.
Don’t wait for the sirens to go off. We help small and mid-sized businesses across the Oklahoma City metro build backup and disaster recovery plans that actually work — before they need them. Let’s talk about where your business stands.
