Managed Security Services (MSS)

Backup, DR & Ransomware Readiness

A backup you haven't tested is a hope, not a plan. We design and manage backup and disaster-recovery programs - immutable backups, defined recovery-time/point objectives, and rehearsed ransomware-recovery runbooks - so a ransomware incident is a bad day, not a bad year.

Overview

A backup you haven't tested is a hope, not a plan - and untested recovery is the single most common reason ransomware incidents turn into extended outages. We design and manage backup and disaster-recovery programs with immutable backups, defined recovery objectives, and ransomware-recovery runbooks that are actually rehearsed, not just documented.

Coverage

What we cover

01

Immutable Backup Architecture

Backups that cannot be altered or deleted by ransomware that reaches production systems.

02

RTO/RPO Definition

Setting and validating recovery-time and recovery-point objectives against business needs.

03

Ransomware-Recovery Runbooks

Documented, rehearsed step-by-step recovery procedures for a ransomware scenario specifically.

04

Scheduled Recovery Drills

Periodic, pass/fail-reported drills that prove recovery actually works.

Outcomes

FAQ

Frequently asked

Do you test recovery, not just backup?

Yes - an untested backup is the most common reason ransomware recovery fails. We run scheduled recovery drills and report pass/fail against your RTO/RPO targets.

Need backup, dr & ransomware readiness?

Prove both before launch.

Bring us your app, audit deadline, or security concern. We'll map the fastest path to WCAG conformance, VAPT coverage, and regulator-ready evidence.
