Secure Backup & Replication Services – Protect Your Business Data
Your data is one of your most valuable business assets. Whether you run servers onsite, operate fully in Microsoft 365, or a mix of both, your backup strategy must ensure you can recover quickly, securely and with confidence.
At Weald, we provide fully managed, ISO-certified backup and replication services designed to keep your organisation operational — even in the face of accidental deletion, ransomware, hardware failure or a full-site disaster.
Better protection. Faster recovery. Real peace of mind.
What should you consider when choosing a backup solution?
A strong backup and DR strategy must consider:
- RTO (Recovery Time Objective) – how long can you afford to be down?
- RPO (Recovery Point Objective) – how much data can you afford to lose?
- Security – backups should be stored on-site and off-site, encrypted at every stage.
- Immutable storage – critical for ransomware protection.
- Network separation – backup repositories should not be accessible from production systems.
- Backup provider security – look for ISO 27001-certified storage (as we offer).
- Regular DR testing – to verify restores actually work when needed.
- Monitoring and alerting – backups must be checked, not assumed.
- Microsoft 365 data retention – Microsoft permanently deletes items after 90 days.
- Retention periods & versions – align your retention with legal and operational needs.
Not sure what you need? We can design the entire strategy for you.
