Ransomware Protection

Your archive survives
even when your network doesn't

Ransomware gangs encrypt your files AND steal your data for double extortion. Our solution removes the originals from your network entirely — there's nothing left to steal or encrypt.

Protect Your Data Now See How It Works

The Problem

Your production data
is a ransomware target

Ransomware encrypts everything on your network — production files, project data, client records. If the data lives on a network share, NAS, or local drive, it's already at risk the moment the attacker is in.

Network-attached storage

Ransomware encrypts mapped drives and UNC paths. Every file share on your network is a target.

Compromised admin credentials

Attackers steal admin passwords, then destroy shadow copies and wipe recovery options before deploying the payload.

Traditional backup won't save you

Backups only help after the attack — they don't prevent data theft. And if the attacker finds your backup share, those are gone too.

Typical Ransomware Attack Timeline
Day 1–14
Attacker gains access, maps network, identifies file shares and data locations
Day 15
Steals admin credentials, disables antivirus, begins exfiltrating sensitive data
Day 16
Encrypts all production files across every share and endpoint. Threatens to publish stolen data.
Day 17
Ransom note: pay up or we publish your client data. Files encrypted. Business halted.

With Us
Production data was already off-network. Nothing to encrypt. Nothing to steal. Restore from immutable archive.

Four Layers of Ransomware Protection

Each layer works independently. Together they make data theft and encryption attacks pointless.

Layer 1: Data Leaves Your Network

Once archived, originals are replaced with tiny stub files. The actual data no longer exists on your network. Ransomware can't encrypt what isn't there. Attackers can't exfiltrate data that's already gone. Need a file back? Any user can double-click the stub to request a restore — no IT ticket required.

Stops: data theft, double extortion, file encryption

Layer 2: Immutable Cloud Storage

S3 Object Lock (Governance Mode) makes archived files read-only at the infrastructure level. No API call, no admin credential, no malware can modify or delete them until retention expires.

Stops: archive deletion, overwrite, tampering

Layer 3: Zero-Knowledge Encryption

Files are encrypted on your machine with your private key before upload. Even if an attacker compromised our entire platform, they'd get encrypted blobs they can never read.

Stops: cloud-side data breach, supply chain attack

Layer 4: Two-Admin Deletion

Destroying any archive requires two different administrators to approve, plus separate S3 credentials with elevated permissions. A single compromised account can't do anything.

Stops: insider threats, social engineering

Your Cyber Insurer Will Thank You

Cyber insurance premiums are rising 30–50% year over year. Insurers increasingly require immutable, off-network data protection for coverage. Some deny claims entirely if production data was accessible to the attacker.

Our platform provides exactly what underwriters look for:

  • Immutable storage — Object Lock with retention periods
  • Production data moved off-network — originals replaced with stubs, nothing left to steal
  • Encryption at rest and in transit — with client-held keys
  • Full audit trail — every action logged and timestamped
  • Multi-admin controls — no single point of failure
