Recover Fast from Ransomware and Cyber Incidents
Evidence-led recovery. Insurer-ready reporting. Business-first outcomes.
Security isn’t only about preventing attacks—it’s about ensuring your business can survive them. Cyber Resilience gives you ransomware-safe backups, tested recovery, and operational continuity so downtime doesn’t become the real disaster.
- Downtime would stop revenue, operations, or service delivery
- You’re not sure you could recover without paying ransom
- You have backups but haven’t tested full restores recently
- Insurers or auditors are asking tougher questions
- You want recovery to be documented, proven, and repeatable
- You’ve had an incident, near-miss, or board-level concern
Most businesses believe they’re protected because they have backups. But in real ransomware incidents, failure points are predictable:
Backups are connected to the same environment and get encrypted too
No one knows the real recovery time until it’s too late
Restores fail under pressure
Recovery becomes chaos instead of a controlled process
Cyber Resilience ensures recovery is a capability—not a hope.
| Features: | Purpose: | Includes: |
|---|---|---|
| Everything in Advanced Protection | Ensure prevention + detection are strong enough to reduce frequency and severity of incidents | + Essential baseline (DMARC + Mail Assure, identity, endpoints, backups) + Enhanced security awareness training (unlimited iterations + branded certificates) + Password Manager + Patch management + vulnerability assessments (incl. 3rd party patching for supported packages) + Basic monitoring (server + workstation) without remediation |
| Managed Detection & Response (MDR) | Detect, validate, and respond to real threats — not just generate alerts | + MDR service enablement and monitoring + Threat detection + escalation workflows + MDR reporting (incident-driven + periodic reporting) |
| Identity & Access Hardening (Microsoft 365) | Reduce credential compromise and account takeover by enforcing consistent access controls | + Password policy creation + rollout + MFA configuration and enforcement for Microsoft 365 + Identity hygiene baseline |
| Backup & Recoverability (Server + Workstations + Microsoft 365) | Ensure the business can recover quickly from ransomware, deletion, corruption, or major failure | + Backups for Servers + Backups for Workstations + Microsoft 365 backups: Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, OneDrive + Encrypted backups stored offsite + Backup monitoring (success/failure alerting) |
| Advanced Monitoring + Performance Management (With Remediation) | Proactively detect and resolve issues before they become downtime or security incidents | + Advanced monitoring for servers and workstations + Performance monitoring + resource visibility + Remediation included (triage + corrective actions) |
| Network Monitoring + Syslog | Improve visibility across the environment and detect abnormal behaviour early | + Network monitoring + Syslog collection and monitoring (where applicable) + Alerting + visibility reporting |
| EDR + MDR Monitoring, Reporting & SIEM (Full Service) | Provide unified security visibility and evidence-led reporting across endpoints and activity logs | + EDR monitoring and reporting + MDR monitoring and reporting + Full SIEM service (log visibility + security analytics) + Centralised reporting and incident evidence |

Set clear recovery time and recovery point targets so the business knows exactly how fast systems and data can be restored after an incident.
Use hardened, isolated backup design to prevent attackers from encrypting or deleting recovery points—so you’re not forced into paying.
Run scheduled restore tests to confirm backups are usable, complete, and fast enough—before you need them in a real emergency.
Restore critical systems sooner, reducing business interruption, revenue loss, and operational disruption after an outage or attack.
Provide defensible proof of backup controls, monitoring, and testing—supporting cyber insurance requirements and claim readiness.
Give leadership clarity through reporting that shows status, risk, and accountability—so recovery capability is always understood and owned.
Step 1 — Assess Recoverability
We assess whether you can actually recover from ransomware by reviewing:
Backup architecture, identity/privileged access around backups, current restore capability, recovery timelines and ownership
Step 2 — Harden Backup & Recovery Systems
We implement isolation and resilience controls so backups survive an incident.
Step 3 — Test, Prove, Improve
We run restore tests and produce evidence-led reporting so recovery becomes predictable.
Implementation timeline
First milestone: Verified restore test completed.
Typical rollout: 14-18 days depending on environment.
Insurers care less about what you “have” and more about what you can prove. Cyber Resilience creates verifiable evidence of recoverability and controls.
Evidence we provide includes:
+ Date and outcome of last restore test
+ Backup isolation/immutability controls
+ MFA + privileged access enforcement
+ Incident response documentation
+ Defined RTO/RPO for critical systems
+ Monitoring and escalation ownership
Backups alone don’t stop ransomware from destroying recoverability. Cyber Resilience ensures backups are protected, isolated, and proven through testing.
At minimum, quarterly for critical systems. High-risk or regulated environments should test more frequently
Not always. Many SMEs don’t need full DR—but they do need tested recovery and defined priorities. We right-size resilience based on business impact.
Yes. We provide insurer-ready evidence packs and can support cyber insurance conversations with clear documentation.
No. Testing is planned and controlled. The goal is resilience improvements with minimal downtime.
Cyber Resilience gives you tested recovery and insurer-ready evidence—so your business stays operational even when attacks succeed.
