Cyber Resilience
Most organisations assume their backups and recovery plans will work - until the day they're needed. Through a combination of live technical testing and structured tabletop exercises, we validate your ability to recover from real-world failure scenarios.
The Engagement Lifecycle
A structured approach that combines threat modeling, technical testing, and executive exercises to give you evidence-based confidence in your recovery capabilities
Scenario Planning
Custom scenarios designed for your company - based on your sector, infrastructure, and actual threat landscape
Threat Modeling
Follow STRIDE-LM methodology to map realistic attack paths and identify what could go wrong in your environment
Execution Planning
Work with your internal team to identify what can be tested technically vs. what needs tabletop simulation
Execution
Run technical recovery tests on live systems and facilitate tabletop exercises with leadership simultaneously
Impact Discussion
Collaborative debrief with all stakeholders - what worked, what broke, and the real business impact of gaps discovered
Final Report
Evidence-based assessment with measured RTO/RPO, prioritised gaps, and actionable recommendations
Resilience Framework
We assess your capabilities across all five pillars of cyber resilience, aligned to established frameworks
Identify
Critical assets, dependencies, and single points of failure
Protect
Backup isolation, access controls, and immutability
Detect
Monitoring for backup tampering and integrity violations
Respond
Playbooks, decision trees, and communication plans
Recover
Restoration procedures, RTO/RPO validation, and operational resumption
Scenarios We Test
Realistic failure scenarios that prove whether your recovery actually works
Ransomware Recovery
Can you restore operations without paying? We validate backup accessibility, integrity, and restoration speed when production systems are encrypted.
Data Corruption
If critical databases are corrupted or poisoned, can you identify the point of compromise and restore clean data without propagating bad state?
Site Failure
Primary data centre goes offline. Test your failover procedures, DNS cutover, and whether secondary infrastructure can actually take the load.
Malicious Admin
A privileged insider has wiped backups and disabled monitoring. Can you detect it, contain it, and recover from a secondary source?
Assessment vs. Audit
This is not a compliance checkbox exercise
What Others Do
- Review documentation only
- Confirm backups exist on paper
- Accept stated RTO/RPO at face value
- Compliance-focused output
What We Do
- Actually attempt restoration
- Verify backup integrity with checksums
- Measure real RTO/RPO under pressure
- Evidence-based confidence
Is This Right for You?
Best for: Organisations that need confidence their business can survive a worst-case cyber event without catastrophic downtime - and want evidence, not assumptions, that recovery plans actually work.
