Backup & Data Protection Advisory

A backup job showing "Success" doesn't mean your data is actually protected.

Independent advisory to evaluate and validate your backup strategy before you need it. Most organizations don't know there's a problem until they try to restore.

The backup assumptions that become expensive lessons

Backup jobs reporting "Success" are reassuring right up until the moment you actually need to restore. TVG's team has seen this scenario play out in organizations that were confident their data was protected. We challenge these assumptions before an incident validates them for you.

Unverified backups

A backup job reporting "Success" means the job ran — not that your data is recoverable. Most organizations never test restoration until they need it.

Wrong strategy for your risk profile

Backup requirements for a healthcare organization are different from a law firm. Generic solutions create specific vulnerabilities.

Ransomware exposure

Ransomware specifically targets backup infrastructure. If your backups are reachable from your network, they're part of your attack surface.

How our team helps — and what drives every recommendation

Backup Strategy Review

Our team evaluates your backup architecture against your actual recovery requirements — identifying gaps before a ransomware event identifies them for you.

Vendor Evaluation

When backup solutions are warranted, our team sources competing options from providers we know deliver — not just the ones that pitch well — and oversees deployment. TVG advises; your chosen provider delivers.

Recovery Testing Guidance

Design and execute a restoration test that tells you whether your data is actually recoverable — not just whether backup jobs are completing.

Not run a backup job — actually restore data. If you're not sure, we should talk.
