Why the copy belongs elsewhere

Backups are only as safe as the building they are kept in

When backups sit next to your servers, one bad day can hit both the servers and the backups. Switch and compare.

Common concerns

6 common concerns and how we address them

These are the things we hear from customers most often. Pick the one that matters to you.

Our answer

Locked WORM copies

Locked copies cannot be changed for a set period, so even if an attacker reaches your servers and admin accounts, you still have a clean copy to restore from.

Our answer

A geographically remote copy

The second copy is kept in another country – Germany – with a separate power grid and climate zone. This way a fire or flood in your building does not hit both copies at once.

Our answer

Recovery tests and reports

Every quarter we test recovery and send you the documented report NIS2 requires. The data centre is ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified.

Our answer

A real 3-2-1 setup

The off-site copy completes the 3-2-1 scheme, and recovery test reports prove it to your insurer – without building your own international infrastructure.

Our answer

Microsoft 365 backup

Add backups of Microsoft 365 email, SharePoint and Teams – Microsoft 365 on its own does not always protect against accidental or malicious deletion.

Our answer

One fixed monthly price

No egress or API fees. You pay for the volume you store, and recovery during a crisis costs nothing extra.

Overview

BTT Vault

BTT Vault – geographically remote backups for business (off-site backup). A Backup as a Service solution built on Veeam Enterprise Plus and Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage: your data is automatically copied to the Equinix Frankfurt data centre – a strategic European interconnection hub with high reliability and international security certifications.

When business continuity is at risk, off-site backups let you restore IT systems quickly. Immutable (WORM) backups protect against ransomware, malware and accidental deletion, and keeping a copy in another country follows the recommendations of the NIS2 directive.

Who it is for:

  • small and mid-sized businesses – enterprise-grade protection without extra specialists;
  • large enterprises – free data retrieval and up to 100 Gb/s recovery speed in a crisis;
  • regulated sectors – a certified data centre, WORM protection and audit documentation;
  • 3-2-1 rule followers – an extra layer of protection outside your country.
How it works

Your backups – in another country

Everything runs automatically every day: Veeam creates backups on your schedule, sends an encrypted copy to Frankfurt where it is locked, and every quarter we check that data can be recovered from it.

  • Your infrastructureProduction systems and the daily Veeam backup stay with you.
  • Encrypted transferBackups travel over a private AES-256 VPN tunnel.
  • Storage in FrankfurtA different country, power grid and climate zone – while your data stays in the EU.

When something happens

How 3 bad days end with BTT Vault

Sooner or later every business has a bad day. Here is how the 3 most common scenarios end when your backup is kept in BTT Vault.

The bad dayHow it ends with BTT Vault
  1. On Friday evening ransomware gets into your systems and encrypts the backups first.

    WORM

    The copy is locked as soon as it is written, so you have a clean copy to restore your systems from.

  2. A fire or flood closes the building that holds both the servers and the backups.

    Another country

    A geographically remote copy is kept in Germany, on a separate power grid, so you can restore your systems from there.

  3. An auditor asks you to prove you can recover your data.

    Every quarter

    Every quarter we test recovery and send you the documented report NIS2 requires – you just forward it.

FAQ

Questions about BTT Vault

What is BTT Vault?

BTT Vault is an off-site backup service for businesses, built on Veeam Enterprise Plus and Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage. Data is automatically copied to the Equinix Frankfurt data centre in Germany.

How much does BTT Vault cost?

The price depends on your scope: the number of virtual servers, the volume of data stored and the retention period. Instead of choosing from standard plans, configure your own BTT Vault – we’ll send you a proposal with a fixed monthly price within 2 business days. Setup, data upload, download and API requests are free of charge.

How is BTT Vault different from AWS or Azure backup?

BTT Vault costs up to 80% less than AWS S3 or Azure Blob (indicative), restores at up to 100 Gb/s, and immutable backups (WORM), setup, maintenance and quarterly recovery tests are already included. No fees for data downloads or API requests.

Does BTT Vault protect against ransomware?

Yes. BTT Vault uses immutable backups with WORM technology – locked copies cannot be changed for a set period, so during a ransomware attack you have a clean copy to restore your data from.

Does BTT Vault meet NIS2 requirements?

Yes. Backups are stored in a geographically separate environment, as recommended by the NIS2 (TIS2 in Lithuania) directive and Lithuania’s Law on Cyber Security, and recovery tests with a documented report are carried out every quarter. The data centre holds ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications.
