Commvault Cyber Resilience and Ransomware Recovery

A backup that has never been restored under pressure is an assumption. Future Matrix Tech designs, implements and tests Commvault environments so that after a ransomware attack you can recover clean data, in a known order, within a time your business has agreed to.

From backup to cyber resilience

Traditional backup answers one question: do we have a copy? Cyber resilience asks harder ones. Is the copy out of the attacker’s reach? Is it clean? Where do we restore to if production is compromised? Who does what, in which order? We use the Commvault Cloud platform to answer each of them and we document the answers in a recovery plan you can rehearse.

What we design and implement

Air-gapped, immutable copies

A copy of your backups that is isolated from the production network and cannot be altered or deleted. We implement this with Commvault Air Gap Protect, which Commvault describes as off-site, immutable cloud storage kept separate from production, or with hardened on-premises storage where data must stay in country.

Cleanroom recovery

Commvault Cleanroom Recovery provides an on-demand, isolated cloud environment for testing and staging recovery. We design the cleanroom process, define which workloads go through it and run the tests with your team.

Cloud application rebuild

Commvault Cloud Rewind is positioned by Commvault for recovering and rebuilding cloud applications together with their infrastructure configuration. We assess whether it fits your cloud estate and integrate it into the recovery plan.

Disaster recovery orchestration

Replication, failover groups and runbooks so that recovery of multi-tier applications follows a tested sequence instead of improvisation.

Hardening the backup platform

Multi-factor and multi-person authorisation, role separation, network segmentation and security posture review of the CommServe, MediaAgents and storage.

Detection and scanning

Configuration of Commvault anomaly detection and threat scanning features that your licence includes, with alerts routed to your security operations team.

Commvault product availability varies by licence, region and cloud. We confirm what applies to your environment during assessment and do not design around features you cannot use.

Ransomware recovery readiness assessment

A fixed-scope review of your current Commvault environment against recovery objectives.

You receive a written report and a remediation roadmap.

Environments we work with

Recovery testing

We schedule and run recovery tests with you: single application restores, cleanroom recoveries and full disaster recovery exercises. Each test ends with measured recovery times, issues found and updates to the runbook. See disaster recovery and business continuity for the wider programme.

Frequently asked questions

We already back up with Commvault. Why do we need this?

Backup jobs completing does not prove you can recover from an attack that also targets the backup platform. The assessment checks isolation, cleanliness and recovery sequence, which routine operations do not test.

Does Cleanroom Recovery need a second data centre?

No. It uses an on-demand cloud environment. Which cloud is available depends on Commvault and your licensing, which we confirm with you.

Can data stay inside Saudi Arabia or the UAE?

Data residency is a design input. Where cloud options do not meet your residency rules we design an on-premises isolated copy instead.

How often should recovery be tested?

At least annually for a full exercise, with smaller application-level tests through the year and after any major change.
