At Blackhawk-IT, your website’s security doesn’t stop at defending against hackers or attacks.
We understand that data loss can happen for many reasons — accidental deletion, hardware failure, software errors, or even unexpected server damage.
That’s why we’ve built our Disaster Recovery Service to ensure your website is always protected, backed up, and ready to recover — no matter what happens.
What’s Included in Our Disaster Recovery Service
Weekly Full Backups
Every week, we automatically create a complete backup of your entire hosting account — including:
-
Website files
-
Databases
-
Emails
-
Configuration settings
This ensures that every part of your website is safely preserved.
Secure Google Drive Storage
Your backups are securely stored in Google Drive, leveraging Google’s enterprise-grade encryption and reliability.
This means your data is safe from unauthorized access and physical damage — protected in the cloud at all times.
Retention of Two Previous Backups
We maintain three versions of your data — the most recent backup plus the two previous ones.
This gives you flexibility to restore your website from multiple restore points, in case you need to roll back to an earlier version.
Included at No Extra Cost
Our Disaster Recovery Service comes completely free with your hosting plan.
No hidden fees. No setup required. Just peace of mind — built right into your service.
Fast & Easy Recovery
If your website encounters issues — from corrupted files to malware infections — our team can quickly restore your site from any of the available backups.
Your website will be up and running again in no time.
Reliable Data Protection
With Google Drive’s encrypted and redundant infrastructure, your backups remain safe from data loss, system failures, or cyberattacks.
Peace of Mind
No more worrying about “what if.”
Your data is always backed up, always secure, and always ready to recover — ensuring your business stays online even in the worst-case scenarios.
