Azure Backup

Reliable backup for VMs, databases, files, disks, and blob storage. Azure-native, no third-party licenses.

Your Backup Has Gaps — and Nobody Tests the Restore

Some VMs are backed up, others are not. SQL databases run without log backup. The last restore test? Years ago. And the on-premises backup software behind it, Veeam or Commvault, carries its own annual licence — for a solution that protects Azure workloads only awkwardly.

Azure Backup is included in every Azure subscription — pay-as-you-go, no license costs. VMs, SQL, Azure Files: all with one service. All that is missing is structured configuration with tested restore processes.

ACTIVITIES IN DETAIL

DELIVERABLES

Workload Inventory: RPO, RTO, and retention requirement captured per application
Vault Design: Recovery Services Vault and Backup Vault with region, identity, and permissions
Ransomware Hardening: Soft delete, immutability, multi-user authorization, and role separation
Backup Policies: Daily and weekly schedules with monthly and yearly retention per workload
Workload Protection: VMs, SQL Server, Azure Files, managed disks, blob storage, PostgreSQL
Policy Enforcement: Azure Policy so no newly created machine stays unprotected
Restore Validation: Five real restores with measured recovery times and the restore runbook

Next steps after Azure Backup

A cleanly configured tenant is the foundation. These blueprints build directly on it

Azure Data Archiving

Azure

Problem: Old data sits in expensive storage tiers, retention requirements are met manually, tape backups are a dying model. Azure Archive Storage is the lowest-cost storage tier Azure offers — but rarely configured.

Scope: Data classification by access frequency and retention requirements - Lifecycle management policies for automatic tiering - Immutable storage (WORM) for regulated data - Document rehydration strategy

Result: Automated data archiving on the lowest-cost storage tier, with WORM compliance and a rehydration runbook measured in a real test.

Azure Landing Zone Setup

Azure

Problem: Without a structured landing zone, Azure environments grow wild: uncontrolled subscriptions, missing governance, no network isolation. Every subsequent Azure project suffers from the missing foundation.

Scope: Management group hierarchy and dedicated subscriptions - Hub-and-spoke networking with firewall and VPN - Azure Policy initiatives for governance and compliance - Deployment parameter set for the landing zone accelerator you choose

Result: Structured Azure environment following Cloud Adoption Framework — secure, scalable, and ready for workload migrations.

Defender for Business

Security

Microsoft 365

Problem: Most mid-market companies have antivirus — but no Endpoint Detection & Response. Attacks are detected but not automatically stopped. Defender for Business is included in M365 Business Premium, for tenants up to 300 users.

Scope: Device onboarding for Windows, macOS, iOS, Android - Next-Gen Protection and firewall policy review - Web content filtering plus ASR rules and Controlled Folder Access in audit mode first, with a dated switch to block - Automatic Attack Disruption, vulnerability baseline, and incident response playbook

Result: Complete endpoint security with EDR, automatic attack disruption, and audit-ready documentation.
