A backup is only as good as its restore. We set up your backup, test it and document how to restore it in an emergency.

Backup & security IT support

- **Set up:** Backup that fits your data
- **Test:** Restore tested
- **Document:** Procedure for emergencies
- **Monitor:** under a maintenance contract
- **Protection:** Antivirus and updates

## Set up, test, document

A backup that runs is not necessarily a backup that works. That is why we check the result.

- Set up: We decide what gets backed up and set up the backup.
- Test the restore: We check that the backup can be restored cleanly.
- Document: You receive a description of how to restore in an emergency.
- Monitor: Under a [maintenance contract](https://1x1it.de/en/it-support/wartungsvertrag/) we keep an ongoing eye on backups, updates and antivirus.

## What else is part of it

- Databases: For databases, the daily backup is only one part. We regularly check that restoring works and set retention according to GoBD (German rules for digital bookkeeping). [More on database design](https://1x1it.de/en/datenbankdesign/)
- Antivirus: We monitor that protection is active and react before things go wrong.
- Updates: Up-to-date systems close known security gaps. That is why updates are part of ongoing maintenance.
- If something does get lost: Accidentally deleted, a system crash or a faulty hard drive: we recover your data, and the initial diagnosis is free of charge. [To data recovery](https://1x1it.de/en/dienstleistungen/#datenrettung)
