Milton Keynes context

Why MK backup needs to clear a higher bar

MK corporate HQs hold massive customer + operational + regulated datasets. Backup design starts from "assume the production estate is compromised".

PCI DSS + GDPR for John Lewis Partnership

For John Lewis Partnership, backup architecture supports PCI DSS payment data retention + GDPR customer data.

NIS Regulations for Network Rail

For Network Rail as OES, backup must support NIS-Regulations incident reporting + recovery time objectives.

FCA Operational Resilience for VW FS / Mercedes-Benz UK

For VW FS UK + Mercedes-Benz UK Financial Services, backup is a control under Important Business Service resilience.

NHS DSP Toolkit assertion 9.4

For NHS BLMK ICB-affiliated organisations, DSP Toolkit assertion 9.4 requires demonstrable backup and recovery.

FAQs

MK backup + recovery — common questions

What does "immutable" mean for our MK backup data?

Data even an admin with full credentials cannot delete or modify before retention expires.

How do you protect a Microsoft 365 tenant?

Microsoft retains, doesn't back up. We deploy third-party M365 backup tools.

Can you build us an air-gapped vault in a second MK DC?

Yes — primary in one DC (ARK Cody) and air-gapped vault in a second (Pulsant MKE or Equinix LD4).

Do you do quarterly restore testing for NHS BLMK?

Yes — for NHS BLMK ICB-affiliated organisations we schedule quarterly tested restores aligned to DSP Toolkit 9.4.

How quickly can you recover a ransomware-encrypted MK estate?

For 200-VM estate with immutable repositories: critical-service restore within 4–8 hours, full estate 24–72 hours.

How do you price backup for a 100-VM MK firm?

Three components — software licence, backup target hardware (£25–55k), implementation services (£15–30k).
