Backups matter. Recovery confidence matters more.
Know what is protected, confirm that data can be restored, and give your business a practical recovery order before disruption puts it to the test.
Coverage
A managed continuity relationship starts by defining what is protected today, who watches it, and where additional coverage may be needed.
- Backup oversight for services covered by the managed relationship
- Microsoft 365 backup management for supported business data
- Server backup oversight when server protection has been purchased
Restore tests
A successful backup notice does not prove that usable data can be recovered. MVTS validates restores so recovery readiness is based on evidence instead of assumption.
- Sample restores confirm that protected data can be retrieved
- Test results reveal gaps before an urgent recovery is needed
- Follow-up work addresses failed or incomplete restore tests
Priorities
Not every system needs to return at the same time. MVTS helps leadership decide what the business needs first and what can wait until critical operations are stable.
- Business-critical functions are identified with leadership
- Systems are grouped into a practical recovery order
- Recovery expectations reflect operational needs and available resources
Dependencies
Applications rarely work alone. An application may also need identity, network, data, or vendor services, so continuity planning accounts for the full chain required to operate.
- Identity services needed for user access are mapped
- Network and internet requirements are included in the plan
- Application, data, and vendor dependencies are documented together
Recovery planning
MVTS turns coverage, testing, priorities, and dependencies into continuity recommendations and a documented approach that teams can follow during a crisis.
- Recovery roles and decision points are made clear
- Recommended improvements are documented and prioritized
- The approach is reviewed as systems and business needs change
Where business data belongs
Normal user workstations are not individually backed up by default. Business data should reside in managed business storage so it can be protected and included in recovery planning.
