Most businesses do have something — a drive, an old appliance, a setting someone turned on years ago. The trouble is what they don't have: proof it works. We see the same three quiet failures over and over — backups nobody has ever restored, a recovery "plan" that lives in one person's head, and ransomware that hunts down and encrypts the backups first. A backup that's never been tested is just a hope.
We set your Recovery Time Objective (how fast you're back) and Recovery Point Objective (how much data you can afford to lose) to match your business, then build to hit them.
Local and cloud copies of your data, verified on a schedule with real restore tests — not a green checkmark nobody has ever checked.
Backups isolated and protected so an attack can't encrypt them too, plus a clean recovery path that gets you running without paying a ransom.
Written, step-by-step procedures so recovery doesn't depend on one person being reachable in the middle of a crisis.
Where it fits, the ability to keep operating — even run from the cloud temporarily — while your office or hardware is down.
We watch the backups, fix failures before they matter, and keep the plan current as your business changes.
We examine what you're backing up today, whether it's actually restorable, and what a disaster would really cost you in downtime and lost data — delivered as a clear findings report. Free, no obligation.
Together we define how fast you need to be back and how much data you can afford to lose, so the plan is built to real numbers, not guesses.
We implement isolated, tested backups (local and cloud), engineer the recovery path, and write the step-by-step plan so it doesn't live in anyone's head.
We run scheduled recovery tests, monitor the backups, and keep the plan current as your systems and business change. Proven, not assumed.
We don't have to imagine the disaster down here — we schedule our lives around it. Every June we all watch the same forecasts, and a single storm can mean days without power, a flooded office, or no access to the building. Continuity on the Gulf Coast can't be an afterthought: your data needs an off-site copy that survives a local storm, and your team needs a way to keep working when the office can't.
A backup is a copy of your data; a disaster recovery plan is how you actually get your business running again after something goes wrong. Plenty of businesses have backups but no plan — no defined recovery time, no tested restore, no written steps — so when disaster hits they're improvising while the clock runs. LRG provides both: protected, tested backups and a documented recovery plan with agreed-upon targets.
RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is how quickly you need to be back up after a disaster; RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is how much data you can afford to lose, measured in time. They translate "we have backups" into real business terms: if your RTO is four hours and your RPO is one hour, your setup has to actually deliver that. We set these targets with you based on what your business can tolerate, then build to hit them.
That's exactly what good backup and recovery is for — and the answer is yes, when it's designed right. The catch is that modern ransomware deliberately targets your backups too, so ordinary backups can be encrypted alongside everything else. We design isolated, protected backup copies and a clean recovery path, so you wipe the infected systems and restore to a known-good point instead of paying. Paired with strong prevention, it turns ransomware from a business-ending event into a bad afternoon.
This is why off-site matters. A local backup sitting in the same building does you no good if that building floods or loses power for a week. We keep a secure copy of your data off-site in the cloud, well away from a local storm, and — where it fits — set you up to keep operating remotely while the office is down. We build for the season we actually live through every year.
Because "we have backups" and "we can recover" are not the same thing, and the gap only shows up at the worst moment. A backup that's never been restored, a plan that lives in one person's head, or backups an attacker can reach all give a false sense of safety. A review tests whether your backups actually work and what a real disaster would cost you, so you find the gaps now. It's free, and you keep the findings either way.
Proactive monitoring that prevents most disasters and powers fast recovery from the rest.
The prevention layer — stopping ransomware before it ever reaches your backups.
"It's in the cloud" isn't a backup; we protect cloud data and enable run-from-the-cloud continuity.
