The organization undertook one of the most ambitious programs in its history: migrating its entire data-centre estate into a UK sovereign cloud environment in 18 months. With national-level services at stake, unvalidated recovery was not acceptable.
Before the migration, the team used on-premises storage and specialist forensics tools to validate backups for ransomware and corruption. These tools worked in static data-centre environments. They did not work at cloud scale.
When the team attempted to lift their validation cluster into the cloud, three problems surfaced: performance bottlenecks made cloud-scale validation impractical, costs spiked beyond sustainability, and the legacy architecture could not operate in a sovereign cloud environment.
Elastio partnered with the organization's cloud and infrastructure teams early in the program. The Hunt Engine performs Deep File Inspection natively on AWS, with no clusters to maintain and no legacy overhead.
Elastio works alongside Rubrik's native architecture without disruption, verifying backup integrity at the data layer.
AWS Backup, Veeam, Cohesity, Commvault, and NetBackup are all supported, providing flexibility as environments evolve.
Elastio operates entirely within the customer's secure, sovereign cloud environment, meeting UK public-sector data-isolation and compliance requirements.
The organization now verifies every backup for ransomware and corruption, automatically and at scale. Backups entering the recovery pipeline are provably clean. Sensitive workloads remain within sovereign boundaries. The cloud migration proceeded without introducing new cyber risk.
