Why Cyber Resilience Differs from Backup

Traditional IT disaster recovery focused heavily on hardware failure or natural disasters. Modern cyber resilience must account for sophisticated threats like immutable backup corruption and delayed ransomware execution.

Key Pillars of Modern Cyber Recovery

Immutable Storage Air-Gapping: Ensuring secondary and tertiary backup copies cannot be altered or deleted by compromised admin accounts.
Automated Sandbox Verification: Routinely restoring backups into isolated environments to test for malware signatures prior to live recovery.
RTO/RPO Optimization: Aligning recovery time objectives with critical business operations to guarantee minimal downtime during an incident.
