Backup and Disaster Recovery
Don't lose data even during a ransomware attack. On-premise and cloud backup, immutable copies, tested recovery procedures. You know your RTO/RPO and know backup will work when needed - because you test it regularly.
60% of companies will never recover data from backup - because they never tested it
Backup and DR system with regular recovery testing
3-2-1 Strategy
3 copies, 2 media, 1 off-site - protection against every scenario
Immutable Backup
Copies that ransomware cannot encrypt
DR Testing
Regular tests to verify backup actually works
Ransomware Encrypted Production and Backup - 14 Days Downtime
A manufacturing company fell victim to ransomware. Production systems encrypted - and backup on the same NAS. Recovery from tapes that no one had tested for 2 years took 14 days. Losses: €1.9 million in revenue + €120K ransom they paid anyway.
Without proper backup and DR:
- Data loss during storage failure, ransomware, human error
- Long downtime because you don’t know how long recovery will take
- Backup on same storage as production - ransomware encrypts everything
- No certainty backup actually works - because you’ve never tested it
- Non-compliance with regulations (NIS2, GDPR) regarding data protection
