Stage2Data Named Leading Cloud Solutions Provider Again!
For the fourth consecutive year, Stage2Data has been recognised as the Leading Provider of Cloud Solutions in North America—proof of our continued focus on delivering secure, high-performance disaster recovery and cloud solutions.
At the heart of our offering is NRaaS™ a network recovery solution that ensures complete failover without changing IP addresses or disrupting business continuity. But we don’t stop there. From secure object storage to DRaaS, our services are designed to keep businesses resilient and costs predictable. This recognition also reflects our customer-first approach, including transparent monthly billing and in-house data centres across North America. As we expand our services, including cybersecurity clean rooms, we remain committed to staying ahead of client needs and setting the standard for trusted, full-service recovery.
Thank you for being a part of this journey and inspiring us to keep raising the bar. Here’s to continuing to grow together!
Case Study: Zero Ransom, Full Recovery in Under an Hour
When a cyberattacker hijacked a client’s Zerto console—deleting local infrastructure and cloud-based replication groups, Stage2Data stepped in.
Within an hour, we restored critical servers using Zerto’s long-term retention (LTR), Extended Journal Copies, and our own immutable object storage. The client avoided paying ransom and recovered all systems within hours. By bypassing the compromised environment and spinning up clean systems in our infrastructure, the client resumed operations quickly and securely. The client migrated fully to Stage2Data’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), gaining better performance, predictable costs, and peace of mind.
This case shows how layered protection and fast recovery aren’t just nice to have—they’re business-critical. The client’s experience proves that a solid disaster recovery plan can mean the difference between collapse and continuity.
Stage2Data Successfully Completes SOC 2 Audit
Stage2Data has officially completed its SOC 2 audit—marking a significant step in our commitment to enterprise-grade data protection.
Conducted by trusted cybersecurity assessor A-LIGN, the audit confirms that our infrastructure, operations, and internal controls meet globally recognised standards for security, availability, and confidentiality. This certification helps us build deeper trust with clients and partners, supports compliance with frameworks like GDPR and HIPAA, and reduces risk across the board. It also strengthens our position in highly regulated sectors like healthcare and finance, where proving data safeguards is essential.
We’ll conduct annual SOC 2 assessments going forward to maintain this standard.
