Ransomware
disrupts businesses.

And many never recover.

Ransomware attacks are increasing in frequency, sophistication and impact. Even organizations with backups often face prolonged downtime, data loss and significant financial damage.

Key takeaway
Backup
does not
mean recovery.

Ransomware can stop your business. True resilience requires more than backups — it requires a tested and proven recovery capability.

threat.recovery

Attackers don’t just
attack production.
They attack recovery.

Ransomware actors increasingly target backups, privileged identities, and recovery infrastructure to prevent restoration, turning an IT incident into a business-ending event.

Why this matters

If attackers can compromise identities, find and destroy backups, and take control of recovery infrastructure, recovery must be protected, isolated, and tested, not just assumed.

Backup alone is not BCP.

recovery.logic

Backup ≠ Recovery

Backup asks: ‘Do we have a copy of the data?’ Business recovery asks: ‘Can we restore the complete service within an acceptable time, so the business can operate again?’

A copy exists.

A successful backup only proves a copy was created.

Production Database

Operational data

Backup Job

Scheduled or on-demand

Azure Backup / Vault

Data copied to recovery storage

Backup Successful

A copy of the data exists. This does not prove it can be restored.

A service recovers.

Business recovery requires all dependencies to be restored and working together.

Users / Customers

Access the service

DNS / Front Door

Global routing & availability

Network

VNets, subnets, NSGs, firewalls

Entra ID

Identity & access management

Application

Web apps, VMs, containers, AKS

API / Integration

APIs, service bus, integration

Database

SQL, managed instances, failover

Storage

Blob, file, queue, shared disks

External SaaS

CRM, ERP, payment providers

Business service available

Customers can use the service again.

Supporting dependencies (must also be restored)

SSL/TLS Certificates
Valid certs & renewal
Azure Key Vault
Keys, secrets & certificates
Monitoring & Alerting
Azure Monitor, dashboards
Logs & Diagnostics
Log Analytics, monitoring data
Secrets / App Config
Connection strings, settings
Messaging / Service Bus
Queues, topics, event routing
API Connections
External API access & credentials
Third-Party Services
SaaS, licensing, payment providers

Backup exists ≠ restorable

A backup may exist, but it might be corrupted, incomplete, or untestable.

Data ≠ system

Restoring data is only one part. Apps, config and dependencies must also be restored.

Latest ≠ clean

The latest backup may contain malware, errors or unwanted data.

Restored ≠ business ready

A successful restore does not mean the service works correctly or meets requirements.

Documented RTO ≠ actual RTO

Theoretical recovery times often differ from real-world times without testing.

Cloud ≠ BCP

Using the cloud does not eliminate the need for a BCP plan, testing and readiness.

If you have never completed a full recovery test, how do you know you can recover?
