Ransomware Recovery Assurance for NetApp

Modern ransomware demands more than backups. Elastio independently verifies the integrity of NetApp FSx for ONTAP data, giving organizations confidence that recovery points remain trustworthy and usable before an incident occurs.

From Backup Assumptions to Proven Recovery Readiness

Recovery assurance is no longer optional

As organizations move critical workloads into the cloud, regulators, boards, and security leaders increasingly require proof that systems can be recovered after an attack with minimal disruption and downtime. For NetApp FSx for ONTAP environments, this means going beyond backups and snapshots to continuously validate that data is clean, uncompromised, and truly recoverable.

Elastio delivers ransomware recovery assurance for NetApp FSx for ONTAP through continuous data integrity validation. Organizations gain objective, expert evidence that their data has not been quietly compromised and that recovery points will be usable when needed.

Why Recovery Assurance Is Now Required

Backups, replication, and immutability establish the foundation for recovery, but they do not guarantee recoverability. Modern ransomware can quietly compromise data over time, allowing corrupted or encrypted data to be replicated and backed up as part of normal operations.

As a result, organizations are increasingly expected to prove that recovery points are trustworthy before an incident occurs, rather than discovering the truth during recovery. Recovery assurance has become a requirement for operational resilience, regulatory compliance, and executive accountability.

How Elastio Delivers Recovery Assurance for FSxN

Elastio continuously validates the integrity of FSx for ONTAP snapshots, replicated data, and backups to detect ransomware encryption, corruption, or unauthorized change. This data-centric validation provides independent confirmation that recovery points remain uncompromised, even when compromise originates in production environments and bypasses traditional security controls.

Rather than assuming recovery readiness, organizations gain verifiable proof of it.
