Backup and Disaster Recovery

Enhance your IT resilience

Let’s Talk

Protecting sensitive student and research data and complying with regulatory requirements like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) are a priority for campus IT. Still, many institutions don’t have sufficient backup and disaster recovery plans in place, nor the staffing and expertise required to implement them. 

Rapidly recover from any event 

With more than two decades serving higher education and years of real-world backup and recovery experience, Apogee helps you preserve critical data and maximize business continuity. Our National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-based plans ensure rapid incident recovery, minimizing disruption and financial impact. 

Every Apogee backup and disaster recovery (DR) plan is tailored to the unique needs of the institution. We routinely test and validate the plan, including simulated outages to evaluate and make refinements. Regular documentation and communication ensure institution stakeholder alignment. 

Where time, staffing, or expertise are obstacles to implementing a robust backup and DR plan, Apogee helps campus IT leaders quickly address worries over data loss, peak operational period disruption, and rising cyber insurance costs. All with a predictable OPEX funding model that eliminates surprises.
