Ransomware Readiness & Recovery Planning
You're worried about downtime, data loss, insurance requirements, or whether your current controls would actually hold up during an incident.
Ransomware readiness is the ability to prevent, contain, and recover from ransomware without extended downtime, uncontrolled data loss, or operational paralysis.
A single ransomware event can halt operations, trigger cyber-insurance scrutiny, and expose the gap between what you think is protected and what actually recovers. Readiness is knowing - before an incident - exactly how you'd contain it and how fast you'd be back.
- You're renewing cyber insurance and facing harder security questionnaires
- Backups exist but haven't been tested against a real recovery
- Endpoint and email controls were bought piecemeal over the years
- No clear, written order for what gets restored first
What good looks like
Assess
Review controls, backup posture, and recovery assumptions against real attack paths.
Prioritize
Rank the gaps that would cause the most damage and fix those first.
Build roadmap
Sequence prevention, detection, and recovery improvements with budget and timeline.
Execute & test
Deploy, validate with a recovery test, and stay accountable through rollout.
We recommend the right fit for your environment, we're not locked to any one vendor.
How do we know if we're ready?
Readiness is measurable: tested backups with a known recovery time, layered prevention across endpoint/email/identity, and a documented runbook. We assess each against real attack paths and show you where the gaps are.
Is ransomware readiness just backup?
No. Backup is recovery - readiness also covers prevention (endpoint, email, identity), containment, and a tested plan. Backups that have never been restored are a common false sense of security.
What systems should be restored first?
We help you define a recovery order by business impact - identity and core services first, then the systems your operations and revenue depend on - so recovery isn't improvised mid-incident.
What should be tested before renewal?
Before a cyber-insurance renewal, validate backup recovery, MFA coverage, endpoint protection, and logging. We help you produce the evidence insurers now ask for.
