Disruptions to critical systems can be costly — in reputation, time, and revenue. In a scenario of constant threats, such as attacks... ransomware Given operational failures, companies need to ensure that their data is protected and available. That's where [the solution/tool] comes in. Cloud-based Disaster RecoveryThe strategy that transforms recovery into minutes, not days.
Unlike traditional models, the Cloud-based DR Flexibility, scalability, and automation.This allows companies to activate contingency environments on demand, with costs proportional to usage. This reduces investment in idle infrastructure and ensures... operational continuity even in critical scenarios.
Disruption Risk (DR) models: replication vs. backup
There are two main approaches:
- Continuous replication: It maintains up-to-date copies of applications and data in real time, allowing immediate activation in case of failure.
- Scheduled backup: It generates periodic backups for later restoration, making it ideal for less critical systems.
A Flexa Cloud solutions Hybrid solutions that combine both models, balancing cost and recovery speed according to each client's profile.
Use case: ransomware attack and recovery testing
Imagine a financial services company operating 24/7 that suffers an attack of ransomware During the early morning hours, local servers are encrypted, interrupting access to billing and customer service systems.
Thanks to the plan of Cloud-based Disaster Recovery implemented by Flexa CloudThe IT team performs the following steps:
- Incident detection: The monitoring system identifies anomalous behavior and alerts the security team.
- Isolation of the infected environment: Compromised servers are disconnected from the local network to prevent propagation.
- Cloud environment activation: Automatic replication is triggered, and the systems are restored to the Flexa Cloud infrastructure in less than 15 minutes.
- Integrity validation: The team performs access and consistency tests on the restored data.
- Safe return to operation: With a clean and validated environment, the business can resume its activities without data loss or the need to pay ransom.
Periodically, Flexa Cloud carries out simulated recovery testsThis is where the client company validates the end-to-end process. This type of exercise ensures that... RTOs and RPOs These guidelines must be followed, and the team must be prepared for any real incident.
How to implement a DR plan in the cloud
- Map critical systems and dependencies.
- Define RTO/RPO objectives. (recovery time and point).
- Choose the ideal model — backup, replication, or hybrid.
- Implement automation and continuous monitoring.
- Test the plan regularly.
A Flexa Cloud It accompanies each step, offering technical consulting, proactive monitoring, and cost optimization.
