As a requirement, cyber insurance companies are demanding that their customers have an ‘Air Gap’ backup, this can be in addition to already onsite and offsite backup copies, to ensure maximum protection. The air gap means that the backups are not accessible or on the company network. So, ransomware can’t get to them.

Backup Systems would like to announce the appointment of Peter Mills as Operations Director.
Peter brings a wealth of experience of MSPs to build our MSP proposition.

If you didn’t know already, Backup Systems are a member of Made in Britain, a not-for-profit organisation which supports British manufacturers.

We recently went to Southend-on-Sea to see our friends and clients Hood Group. We met up with Steve King, Alex Milne, and Jarvis Goodfellow, and went to Ask Italian for a lovely meal.

Today is FSB Day which celebrates everything great about being an FSB member. FSB, which stands for Federation of Small Businesses, is a service we use here at Backup Systems, they offer free legal advice as well as business insurance and free banking.

We recently made the trip down to London to visit our friends and clients at Hat Trick Productions, discussing plenty to do with their infrastructure over lunch, as well as a small tour of their on-site hardware. We all had a great time and look forward to doing it again in the future.
