Without proper disaster recovery systems, businesses lose years of critical data in seconds. Customer records, financial data, and operational information gone forever. **Our Solution:** Protection Against All Hardware Failures Our disaster recovery systems include automated backups with multiple redundancy levels. When hardware fails, your data is safe in our systems. We maintain duplicate systems ready to take over instantly, eliminating downtime from equipment failure. ##### [A ransomware attack encrypted all our files and we had nothing to fall back on.](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse2-module_17739956018406) Cyberattacks are increasing dramatically. Ransomware can encrypt your entire network overnight, locking you out of essential systems. Without offsite backups and a disaster recovery plan, you're forced to either pay the ransom or lose everything. **Our Solution: Ransomware-Proof Backup Strategy** Immutable backups stored in a separate location protect against ransomware and cyberattacks. Even if attackers encrypt your production systems, clean recovery points remain untouchable in our secure cloud storage. Your recovery strategy includes rapid restoration from pre-attack snapshots. ##### [Our office flooded and destroyed all our IT equipment and backup drives.](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse3-module_17739956018406) Natural disasters don't discriminate. Fire, flood, storm damage, or even simple water leaks can destroy on-premise equipment and local backups simultaneously. If your disaster recovery strategy relies solely on local storage, one event wipes out everything. **Our Solution: Offsite Protection** Your data is replicated in our systems, protecting against localised disasters. If your Melbourne office suffers fire, flood, or physical damage, your complete IT environment is recoverable from these backups. True peace of mind against regional events. ##### [We had backups but no idea how to restore our systems when disaster struck.](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse4-module_17739956018406) Having backups isn't enough without a tested disaster recovery plan. When crisis hits, you need documented procedures, tested restore processes, and clear recovery steps. Without this disaster recovery services expertise, recovery takes weeks instead of hours. **Our Solution: Tested Disaster Recovery Plan with Expert Support** We don't just create disaster recovery services, we test them quarterly. Your disaster recovery plan includes documented procedures, priority restoration sequences, and emergency support from Melbourne-based experts who guide you through recovery step-by-step. ![WEB IMAGE (1000 x 1000 px) (24)](https://1300intech.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/WEB%20IMAGE%20(1000%20x%201000%20px)%20(24).png?width=1000&height=1000&name=WEB%20IMAGE%20(1000%20x%201000%20px)%20(24).png "WEB IMAGE (1000 x 1000 px) (24)") ![WEB IMAGE (1000 x 1000 px) (19)](https://1300intech.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/WEB%20IMAGE%20(1000%20x%201000%20px)%20(19).png?width=650&height=650&name=WEB%20IMAGE%20(1000%20x%201000%20px)%20(19).png) ## Your small business is just one error away from disaster As a business, it’s only natural to stay ready for anything that comes our way. However, most SMBs get caught off guard because they underestimate potential risks or are, at the very least, ill-prepared for critical downtime scenarios. The truth is, a solid disaster recovery plan combined with a reliable backup solution can mitigate most risks and keep your business running even during a crisis. Most importantly, it enables your business to recover within minutes (rather than days) if the unexpected happens tomorrow. ![WEB IMAGE (700 x 700 px) (14)](https://1300intech.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/WEB%20IMAGE%20(700%20x%20700%20px)%20(14).png?width=800&height=800&name=WEB%20IMAGE%20(700%20x%20700%20px)%20(14).png) ## The Disaster Recovery Services Melbourne Chooses When They Want "IT" Done Right For over 20 years, Melbourne businesses have trusted us when it counts most.

We are a non-profit organisation and as such money can be a bit on the tight side. 1300 INTECH have taken that into consideration and have provided us with first class service that we can afford.* *They have supported our programs and sometimes our lack of IT understanding and have not worked for us, but with us. When I first commenced at SEV, there were only 2 email addresses and very little Internet service. 1300 INTECH provided us with advice and support to bring our organisation in line with best practice. They advised us on software, hardware and answered our many concerns with patience and, to some extent, kind humour.* *We did have a time many years ago, that we were hacked and held to ransom. InTech stepped up, worked long into the wee hours of the morning to secure our systems, and updates us with extra firewalls – and more training for staff on what NOT to do.* *At the commencement of lockdown, Intech jumped into action and got all 15 of our staff connected to MS Teams, laptops and gave us Zoom lessons – all within about a 48-hour time frame. There was no such thing as too many phone calls or silly questions.* *1300 INTECH took SEV from an organisation with only 2 email addresses to what we are today, with the latest technology (MS Teams phones, WIFI, Remote Working Spaces, VPN) and ensures that we are cybersafe at all times.* *I have worked with all of the staff at 1300 INTECH , and I must say that I have not found a lemon amongst them. They all have their “specialties”, but they work well as a team, and complement each other. They provide personal service and extremely professional work ethic, but not forgetting that we are not IT gurus and sometimes we need a bit more explanations.* *I cannot recommend Emmanuel and his team at 1300 INTECH highly enough and I am extremely grateful for the service they have provided for us in the past and will continue to provide us into the future.* **Shirlene S.** Manager | South East Volunteers *Before we partnered with 1300 INTECH, we had an outdated computer system that wasn’t meeting our needs. 1300 INTECH came in and redesigned our entire system, sourcing hardware and software, meeting our needs, now and into the future, exceeding our expectations all whilst coming in on budget.* *They kept us informed every step of the way and have supported us since the installation, making sure we have minimum downtime and disruption in resolving any issues that arise. The technicians at 1300 INTECH always provide unmatched customer service and we would highly recommend using them.* **Adele S.** Office Manager | Zerella Group *We had no idea what to do when ‘Cryptolocker’ infected one of our computers a few Friday’s ago. But a single call to our IT Support Group, 1300 INTECH, was all it took to get the ball rolling to fix our problem.* *We were back up and running on Monday morning and didn’t lose a single file.* *They’ve looked after our Computer Networks for over 5 years now and their service is always exemplary.* *Rating: Highly recommended* **Sue T.** Finance and Admin | Percheron Therapeutics *All the INTECH staff have been knowledgeable about what they are doing, easy to communicate and work with, and diligent in their follow-up.* **Mark S.** | Healthways I am thrilled to share my experience with HubSpot, a truly exceptional platform that has transformed the way I approach marketing and customer relationship management.

It also ensures operations resume quickly, maintaining productivity and customer trust. ##### [What’s the difference between backup and disaster recovery?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse2-module_17605652395215) Backups create secure copies of data for safekeeping. Disaster recovery goes further by restoring full systems and operations so your business continues running after major failures. ##### [What is the difference between RTO and RPO?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse3-module_17605652395215)  RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and RPO (Recovery Point Objective) are critical metrics in your disaster recovery plan. RTO defines how quickly systems must be restored after disaster, essentially, how much downtime your business can tolerate. RPO defines how much data loss is acceptable—how far back in time you can restore. An RPO of 1 hour means backups must be recent enough that you lose no more than 1 hour of data. Different systems have different RTOs and RPOs based on business impact. ##### [How often should a business test its disaster recovery plan?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse4-module_17605652395215) Every business should test its disaster recovery plan at least twice a year. Regular testing keeps data integrity, systems, and processes reliable and up to date. ##### [Can disaster recovery services protect against cyber attacks?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse5-module_17605652395215) Absolutely — disaster recovery services play a crucial role in responding to cyber attacks! They restore compromised systems, recover lost data, and keep your business operational as soon as possible. ##### [How long does disaster recovery take?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse6-module_17605652395215) Recovery time depends on your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) defined in your disaster recovery plan. With modern disaster recovery systems, critical systems can be restored in minutes through automated failover. Full environment recovery typically takes 4-24 hours depending on data volume and complexity. ##### [Do I need disaster recovery services if I already have backups?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse7-module_17605652395215) Yes, absolutely. While backups are essential, they're only one component of complete disaster recovery services. A comprehensive disaster recovery plan includes tested restoration procedures, business continuity planning for operations during recovery, documented recovery sequences and priorities, alternate infrastructure to run systems during rebuilding, and regular testing to verify everything actually works. ##### [What types of disasters do you protect against?](https://1300intech.com.au/disaster-recovery-systems#collapse8-module_17605652395215) Our disaster recovery systems protect against all major threat categories including hardware failures (server crashes, drive failures, equipment malfunctions), cyberattacks (ransomware, malware, unauthorized access), natural disasters (fire, flood, storm damage, power outages), human error (accidental deletion, misconfiguration, data corruption), and physical threats (theft, vandalism, facility damage).  ![Automated Data Backups](https://1300intech.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Automated%20Data%20Backups.png?width=1366&height=768&name=Automated%20Data%20Backups.png) ## Don't Wait for Disaster to Strike Protect your Melbourne business with proven disaster recovery systems.
