What We Do for You
- Test whether your backups actually restore, at speed, under pressure.
- Put copies where an attacker with full access cannot reach them.
- Rehearse the decision-making with your leadership.
- Harden the paths ransomware normally travels.
- Write the playbook and the recovery order for your systems.
How this is bought: Bought as an assessment first, then a project priced from what the assessment finds. Build an estimate for your case.
Our Approaches Explained
Immutable and offline copies
Backups that cannot be altered or deleted for a set period, with at least one copy out of reach.
Restore testing
Proving recovery time by actually restoring, not by reading the backup report.
Recovery order planning
Which systems come back first so the business can function.
Blast-radius reduction
Segmentation and privilege limits so one compromised account cannot encrypt everything.
Executive decision rehearsal
Working through the pay-or-restore question before the day it is asked.
The Standards We Work To

We follow the structure and controls these standards describe. We do not claim to be certified against them - where you need a formal certificate, we prepare the evidence and an accredited body performs the audit.
What You Get
- Backup architecture review
- Restore test report with timings

These are the areas clients most often ask us to improve. Your project sets its own targets, measured and agreed with you.
Before You Sign
Readiness work is scoped in writing, including any testing that touches live systems, the change windows agreed and the limits of liability. Preparation improves recovery; it cannot guarantee that an attack will fail or that every system will be restored.
