Whatever knocks your business down, we get it back on its feet — fast.

40% of businesses never reopen after a disaster. Another 25% fail within a year. The difference between the survivors and the casualties isn't luck — it's a tested recovery plan. Tech Bodyguard builds, tests, and stands behind the plan that keeps you in business when fires, floods, failures, or human error take everything else down.

// In brief
  • Disaster recovery in three disciplines: plan (business impact analysis, RTO/RPO, documented runbooks), protect (immutable geo-separated backups and cloud failover), and prove (quarterly drills with written reports).
  • Published RTO/RPO tiers — Bronze, Silver, Gold — so you know exactly how fast you recover and what it takes, instead of a vague "we'll get back to you" SLA.
  • The free Downtime Cost Calculator shows what 24 hours, 3 days, and a full week of downtime would actually cost your business — in dollars, not abstractions.

Plan

We map every critical system, dependency, and recovery priority before anything breaks.

A business impact analysis identifies what has to come back first, in what order, and how fast. We define an RTO and RPO for every critical system and document runbooks so recovery never depends on one person's memory.

Protect

We build redundancy where it actually matters.

Immutable backups with geographic separation, cloud failover, hardware spares, and vendor diversification remove the single points of failure that turn an incident into a closure. Redundancy is targeted where downtime hurts most, not sprayed everywhere.

Prove

A plan you haven't tested isn't a plan — it's a hope.

Every client gets quarterly DR drills with a written report documenting recovery times, gaps found, and remediation steps. You get audit-ready evidence and, more importantly, a team that has already practiced your bad day before it arrives.

What we cover

Everything disaster recoveryactually requires.

Business Impact Analysis & RTO/RPO Mapping

We rank every system by how much downtime and data loss it can tolerate, then design recovery to match those targets.

Immutable Backups with Geographic Separation

Tamper-proof backups replicated across regions, so a fire, flood, or ransomware event can't take out both copies at once.

Cloud Failover & Alternate Work Locations

Spin your environment up in the cloud and keep your team working when the primary site is inaccessible.

Documented Recovery Runbooks

Step-by-step, per-system recovery documentation good enough that a stranger could execute it under pressure.

Quarterly DR Drills & Written Reports

We actually restore — not just check the backup — and hand you a report with recovery times and gaps identified.

Leadership Tabletop Exercises

A structured 90-minute simulated disaster that shows your leadership team exactly where the plan breaks.

Published RTO/RPO Tiers

Bronze, Silver, and Gold recovery tiers with transparent targets and what each one requires to achieve.

Vendor & Hardware Redundancy

Spare hardware and diversified vendors so a single supplier outage doesn't stall your recovery.

The problem we solve

What's the difference between a backup and disaster recovery?

A backup is a copy of your data; disaster recovery is a tested plan to get your whole business running again — and most companies only have the first.

Our approach

How a disaster recovery engagementactually runs.

01

Downtime Cost Calculator

Answer 8 questions and see what a bad day actually costs your business — the number that makes "we'll get to DR next year" hard to say out loud.

02

Continuity Audit & Plan

We map current state, define an RTO/RPO for every critical system, and produce a documented recovery plan and roadmap — a paid engagement fully creditable toward managed services.

03

Protect, Drill & Prove

We stand up immutable backups and cloud failover, then test them quarterly with written reports so your recovery is proven, not assumed.

Manufacturing
Shipping again by 2 PM after a server-killing power surge

A 40-person manufacturer lost its primary server to a power surge that defeated the UPS.

An hour-by-hour recovery playbook and geo-separated backups had them shipping orders again by 2 PM the same day.
