Backup Policy

WeSalute's Backup Policy describes how often service and customer data is backed up. All original (non-derived) customer data on infrastructure operated by WeSalute should be backed up.

Timing

WeSalute configures full, daily database backups for all data stored in Google Cloud. If a Platform as a Service ("PaaS") is utilized, WeSalute ensures that the PaaS vendor performs daily database backups, such as Acquia Cloud. If a database instance is deleted, all associated backups are also automatically deleted. Backups are periodically tested by WeSalute EngineeringOps.

Endpoint Backups

WeSalute does not maintain backups of Team Member endpoints (laptops or computers). Key tools, documents, and work products are expected to be stored on cloud services and shared file drives, so creating and maintaining backups of Team Member endpoints is not necessary.

danger

No critical files should ever be stored on your workstation. Expect your workstation to be either remotely locked down, wiped, or lost at any moment. WeSalute SystemsOps will not assist in the process of file recovery stored on workstations.
