Backups & Security Basics
Backups that actually restore, a password manager, two-factor on the accounts that matter, and a tidy Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace setup for West Georgia small businesses.
Backups and security
Color Pop · West Georgia
Overview
Three hours of setup that saves the business when a laptop dies or a password leaks.
Most small-business disasters are boring: a drive fails with no backup, an email account gets phished, a former employee still has the passwords. None of it needs enterprise software. It needs the basics done properly and checked once in a while.
We set up automatic, off-site backups and test a restore. We move the business to a password manager with two-factor on email, banking, and the domain. We clean up who has access to what in Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Then we write it down so the next person can follow it. $125 an hour, billed by the hour; a typical setup is two to four hours.
FAQ
common questions.
- 01What do you actually set up?
- Automatic off-site backups with a tested restore, a password manager with two-factor on email, banking, and your domain, and a cleanup of who has access to what in Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace.
- 02How long does it take?
- Two to four hours for a typical small office, at $125 an hour. Larger teams or messy account histories take longer.
- 03Do we need new software?
- Usually only a backup service and a password manager, both low-cost subscriptions in your name, not ours.
