The Final Step offer data recovery and data protection to SMBs in London and Greater London. With so many ways for your data to be lost or jeopardised, having a data recovery and protection service is a non-negotiable.
We understand the importance of safeguarding your data. Our comprehensive data recovery and protection services are designed to ensure that your valuable information is always secure and easily retrievable. Whether you're facing accidental data loss, hardware issues or a cyber attack, our expert team is here to help you recover your data quickly and efficiently. We also implement robust data protection measures to prevent unauthorised access and avoid breaches, giving you cyber security peace of mind and allowing you to focus on your business operations.
Data recovery involves retrieving lost, corrupted or accidentally deleted data. This process is essential for ensuring business continuity and minimising downtime in the event of data loss. Effective data recovery strategies include regular backups, using reliable recovery software and having a disaster recovery plan in place. By implementing these measures, you can quickly restore lost data and resume normal operations with minimal disruption.
Data protection focuses on safeguarding your data from unauthorised access, breaches and other security threats. This involves implementing various security measures such as encryption, access controls and regular security audits. Additionally, data protection includes ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and standards to protect sensitive information. By prioritising data protection, you can maintain the integrity and confidentiality of your data, build trust with your clients and avoid costly data breaches.
It's safest to assume you will have a security incident. We'll help you answer two crucial questions...
Most people would say they don't want any data loss, nor any downtime. But that is impossible or at least very expensive to achieve.
Planning your recovery is about being realistic about what data is most important, how quickly you need to restore and in what order and figuring out how you can carry on working as that process happens. Then putting in place backup systems that allow you to do that.
A backup is only as good as your ability to recover it and use it.
Backups are important. But being able to recover data and work with it, is the real target.
Recovering a single file is relatively quick and easy if set up correctly.
Recovering all your data after a ransomware attack when negotiating with criminals. That is complex, stressful, time-consuming and disorienting.
We do simple file recovery tests every month. For those who need it, we do annual or bi-annual full disaster recovery practices. We always learn something new. That's why we practice. You don't want a real fire to be the first time you are trying to put one out.

If you aren't developing your security layers you are falling behind
Even SMBs are now expected to have extensive cyber security.
Protecting and being able to recover your data is about more than just taking a copy of it.
Cyber Essentials Plus
Recognised expertise in data recovery
At the turn of the century, we tried several backup and recovery systems that didn't deliver on their promises. When we explained our findings to Datto they were the only company to value our feedback and use it to improve their systems. We were invited onto their advisory committee.
In 2005 we were unexpectedly unable to get into our office due to a terrorist incident. In the two weeks we were locked out we learned even more about the practicalities of business continuity and recovery plans.
It's one of the reasons why we offer our clients "fire drill" recovery practices and table top exercises to test response plans.
We provide a variety of options for different backup and recovery scenarios.
Recently we have encountered a new type of recovery need. Where websites or social media accounts have been cloned. To get the scam site taken down, you first need to be aware of it and then prove ownership of the brand. We are testing solutions.
Your best interests at heart and building a security-first mindset.
We are all human and we all make mistakes.
Education is an important part of data protection and recovery.
Better security often means less convenience. But you need to avoid staff using their own IT because it's easier, but it's not as protected or backed up.
Recovering your business is a pressured situation. The better you understand your role in it, and have practised it, the better and quicker you will recover.
We help senior managers plan, implement, buy wisely and educate their teams about constitutes good security and best practice recovery.
We also help with form-filling for due diligence when insurers and prospects ask for details.
We seek improvement from our strong relationships with partners and the IT community.
