Frequently Asked Questions

Cloud backup securely stores your data offsite, protecting it from hardware failure, accidental deletion, and cyber threats. This keeps your data safe and accessible anytime.
Our managed backup service runs on Acronis. We set up, schedule, monitor and maintain your backups for you, so it runs in the background with us keeping watch.

Three encryption levels are available. Standard (Default): SSL/TLS encryption during transfer, encryption at rest in storage, good balance of security and performance, enabled by default in protection plans. Basic (Not Recommended): SSL/TLS encryption during transfer only, no encryption at rest, requires explicitly disabling encryption in protection plans, only suitable for non-sensitive data. Maximum Security: Local encryption on your devices before transfer, SSL/TLS encryption during transfer, encryption at rest in storage, highest security but requires careful encryption key management, recommended for sensitive data. Additional Security Features: Two-factor authentication (2FA) available for portal access, activity logging and monitoring, granular access controls. Note: The default encryption settings provide robust protection for most business needs. Disabling encryption is not recommended for sensitive data.
Our managed service includes shared access with sparrowhawk.cloud so we can manage and support your backups. If you enable local encryption on your devices, only those with your encryption keys can read the data, though we can still help with overall management. If you would prefer an entirely self-managed environment, let us know and we will provision it.
