Backup &
Data Recovery Services

Xobee’s Cloud Connect Backup delivers enterprise-grade data protection built for modern cyber threats.

Xobee uses a stronger 3-2-1-1-0 backup strategy, including offline, immutable copies that ransomware can’t touch, plus regular testing to verify backups are actually recoverable.

Enterprise Grade backup and disaster recovery infrastructure

This cost-effective solution requires no additional onsite hardware and utilizes your existing Veeam installation. In as little as ten minutes, your business can be on its way towards being protected against today’s advanced persistent threats. When building our Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure, Xobee decided early on to invest heavily to provide our clients with nothing short of the best hardware, security, and data protection commercially available.

AES-256 BIT Encryption

Unique to Xobee, we have invested in self-encrypting hard drives in our NetApp storage system. This allows us to encrypt your data at rest in both software and hardware.

Powered By NETAPP

Feel secure knowing your offsite data is stored on an enterprise-grade NetApp storage system. We encourage you to compare our storage offering with other Veeam Cloud Connect providers.

Top Tier Data Centers

Xobee’s Cloud infrastructure is co-located in top-tier data centers. Take advantage of our redundant power, 3-factor security, and direct access to multiple carriers.

Modern Threats Require Stronger Protection

Ransomware increasingly targets connected backups, and AI is making it easier for attackers to find and exploit vulnerabilities.Attackers may encrypt or delete your backup files, and even cloud accounts can be compromised. Cloud sync alone won’t help if a local file is corrupted or deleted and the changes are made across your backup copies.

Move Beyond the Traditional 3-2-1 Backup Strategy

For years, companies relied on the traditional 3-2-1 backupstrategy: three copies of data, two types of media, and one offsite copy. However, today’s AI threats need a more robust approach.

That is why Xobee recommends a stronger 3-2-1-1-0 approach:

  • 3 copies of data: Keep original data and two backup copies.
  • 2 different types of media: Avoid relying on one storage method.
  • 1 offsite copy: Protect against local outages or site damage.
  • 1 immutable copy: Prevent changing, deleting, or encrypting the backups.
  • 0 errors: Testing and recovery verification with SureBackup to confirm backups are recoverable.

Secure backup for
Microsoft 365

Don’t risk mission critical data to cyberattacks, application malfunctions, or human error.

What’s Included and How It Works

Cloud Connect Backup protects servers, workstations, virtual machines and Microsoft 365 data under one retention and recovery policy. Deployment connects to an existing Veeam installation and takes about ten minutes. No additional onsite hardware is required.

What gets protected

Full server and virtual machine images, file and folder data, application data, and Microsoft 365 across Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams. Image-level backups restore an entire machine. File-level backups restore a single document without touching anything else.

How backups run

Backups run on a set schedule – nightly, with shorter intervals available for transaction-heavy systems. The first backup is a full copy. Every backup after that captures only what changed, which keeps the backup window short and the network impact low. Retention is configurable and set to 14 days by default.

Where copies are stored

One copy stays onsite for fast restores. One copy goes offsite to Xobee-owned storage co-located in top tier data centers with redundant power and three-factor physical security. One copy is immutable, meaning it cannot be altered or deleted, including by an administrator account or by ransomware operating with stolen credentials. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest with AES-256 on self-encrypting NetApp drives.

Recovery testing

SureBackup starts each backup in an isolated environment and verifies it boots and responds before it is marked recoverable. This is the “0” in 3-2-1-1-0. A backup that has never been tested is an assumption, not a recovery plan.

What a restore looks like

Xobee confirms what was lost and how far back to go, whether it’s a single file or a full server. Recovery time depends on the size of the data set and the scope of the failure. Targets are agreed in advance rather than discovered during an outage.

Monitoring and reporting

Every job is monitored. Failed and missed backups raise an alert for Xobee staff to act on, so a silent failure does not sit undiscovered until the day a restore is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions About
Backup & Disaster Recovery

What are data backup and recovery services?

Data backup and recovery services help businesses create secure copies of critical data and restore that data after events such as ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion, software corruption, or an outage.

Why is data backup and disaster recovery important?

A business needs both protected copies of data and a clear recovery process for restoring systems, applications, and operations after an incident.

What should data backup and recovery solutions include?

Data backup and recovery solutions should include secure backup storage, offsite protection, encryption, recovery objectives, retention rules, monitoring, testing, and a documented process for restoring critical systems.

How often should a business back up its data?

Backup frequency depends on how often data changes and how much information your business can afford to lose. Some systems may only need daily backups, while active databases, customer records, or transaction-heavy applications may need much more frequent protection.

What is an immutable backup?

An immutable backup is a copy of data that cannot be modified, deleted, or encrypted by anyone—including system administrators and ransomware—for a defined retention period.

What is the difference between backup and disaster recovery?

Backup saves data copies, while disaster recovery (DR) restores entire IT systems and business operations.

Does cloud sync counts as a backup?

No, cloud sync does not count as a true backup. It mirrors a specific folder on your device to the cloud. If you create, change, or delete a file on your computer, those exact changes instantly happen in the cloud and on all your other connected devices.

How long does recovery take?

Recovery times fluctuate depending on the circumstances. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
