Data Backup and Recovery

Your data is your business. Client records, financial documents, contracts, tax filings — lose them and you don’t just face downtime, you face consequences that can be impossible to recover from. Whether it’s a ransomware attack, hardware failure, natural disaster, or accidental deletion, CMIT Solutions of Los Angeles ensures your data is always protected, always recoverable, and always ready.

Our Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BCDR) solution goes far beyond basic backups. We implement a multilayered system that captures, stores, verifies, and tests your data continuously — so when something goes wrong, recovery is measured in minutes, not days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from just backing up to an external drive or cloud storage?

Consumer-grade backups are incomplete, untested, and often fail when you need them most. CMIT’s BCDR solution captures full system images, stores them in redundant locations, verifies integrity automatically, and is tested regularly — so recovery is reliable and fast.

How quickly can we recover after a disaster or ransomware attack?

With instant virtualization, systems can be back online within minutes. Full recovery timelines depend on the scope of the incident, but our solutions are designed around minimizing downtime with defined Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) agreed upon upfront.

Where is our backup data stored?

Your data is stored both locally for fast recovery and in secure offsite cloud servers for disaster protection. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with retention policies aligned to your compliance requirements.

Do you test our backups to make sure they actually work?

Yes. Backup verification and restore testing are built into the service. We don’t assume your backups are healthy — we confirm it regularly and alert you immediately if something isn’t right.

Is this service suitable for businesses with compliance requirements like HIPAA or GLBA?

Absolutely. Our BCDR stack is designed to align with HIPAA, GLBA, NIST, and other frameworks — including encrypted storage, documented retention policies, and disaster recovery planning that satisfies regulatory requirements.
