Protect Your Baltimore Business from Regional Disasters
The Baltimore-Washington corridor faces specific data threats that require specialized preparation:
Weather-Related Risks
Maryland's severe weather - from flooding in Baltimore to ice storms throughout the region - can destroy local IT infrastructure. Our cloud-based backup solutions ensure your data survives even when your office doesn't.
Power Grid Vulnerabilities
The aging Mid-Atlantic power grid leaves Maryland businesses vulnerable to extended outages. Our backup systems continue protecting your data even during regional power emergencies.
Regional Cyber Threats
Baltimore and DC businesses face sophisticated ransomware attacks that can encrypt all local data. Our immutable backup technology ensures criminals can't destroy your backups, guaranteeing recovery options even after the worst attacks.
Geographic Isolation
Traffic and infrastructure issues can prevent access to your Baltimore office during emergencies. Our cloud-based recovery solutions let you restore operations from anywhere in Maryland or beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why is data backup and recovery important for my business?
Data backup and recovery are critical for protecting your business against data loss due to cyberattacks, hardware failures, or natural disasters. Having a reliable backup ensures business continuity and compliance with industry regulations.
How often should my data be backed up?
The frequency of backups depends on your business needs and data sensitivity. CISPOINT typically recommends daily backups, but we tailor the schedule to align with your operational requirements.
What is the difference between on-site and cloud backups?
On-site backups store data locally, providing quick access but are vulnerable to physical damage. Cloud backups store data off-site, offering enhanced security and accessibility during local disruptions.
How quickly can you recover our data if our Baltimore office is damaged?
We can typically restore critical systems within 2-4 hours and have you operating from a temporary location while your Baltimore office is repaired. Our cloud-based recovery means you're not dependent on local infrastructure.
Do you backup data from multiple Maryland locations?
Yes. Many of our clients have offices throughout Maryland and Northern Virginia. We provide centralized backup management for all your locations from our Baltimore-based monitoring center.
How quickly can I recover my data after a loss?
Recovery time varies based on the volume of data and the nature of the loss. CISPOINT's disaster recovery plans aim to restore your critical systems and data as swiftly as possible, minimizing downtime.

Can CISPOINT help with compliance requirements?

What happens if there's a regional disaster affecting all of Maryland?
Our backup infrastructure uses geographically diverse data centers, including locations outside the Mid-Atlantic region. Even a major regional disaster won't affect your ability to recover your business data.
Can you help us test our disaster recovery plan?
Absolutely. We provide quarterly disaster recovery testing for Maryland businesses, ensuring your recovery procedures work when you need them most. We'll even conduct tests during your slow business periods to minimize disruption.
