Astaris is an IT support business founded by a husband and wife team who actually love working together.
After the.com crash of 2000, the company closed down and disappeared from the UK.
Together with a group of former company employees, we launched our own web development agency.

We utilize a combination of the best proven practices.

We consider ransomware as no less destructive.
Ransomware can creep into your organization via email, halt productivity and cost a terrible amount of resources.
If all your data gets destroyed, then your business must access very old backups.
It’s incredibly destructive.
There are two elements to protect yourself from ransomware: defense and the get out of jail free card.
You will get infected.
If somebody clicks a malicious link, you must have external backups that you might restore.
A backup isn’t a backup unless you’re able to PROVE that it can be restored.
