DPX cyber resilience

Cyber-resilient recovery

Recover from ransomware without restoring the infection. Catalogic DPX helps backup teams prove backups are clean, immutable, and recoverable before they become the last line of defense.

Recovery proof points

  • Detect: GuardMode identifies ransomware-like behavior and suspicious or encrypted files.
  • Verify: DPX checks VMware and block backups before restore.
  • Lock: vStor immutable snapshots use deletion lock to protect restore points.
  • Restore: Choose clean recovery points instead of reintroducing infected data.

Why cyber-resilient recovery matters

Modern ransomware recovery is no longer only a backup question. IT and security leaders need evidence that recovery points are usable, protected from deletion, and free of known indicators of compromise.

Verified backup icon

Clean backup confidence

Backup verification helps confirm that VMware and block backups are suitable restore candidates before recovery begins.

Immutable snapshot icon

Immutable restore points

DPX vStor stores backups as immutable snapshots with deletion lock, helping protect recovery points from tampering or premature removal.

Ransomware detection icon

Ransomware-aware recovery

GuardMode detects suspicious activity and encrypted files so teams can avoid restoring data from a compromised point in time.

Prove the backup is clean, immutable, and recoverable

DPX brings together ransomware detection, backup validation, immutable storage, and guided recovery workflows so backup teams can make better restore decisions under pressure.

  • GuardMode monitors for ransomware-like behavior, suspicious file activity, and encrypted file indicators.
  • Backup verification validates VMware and block backup images before restore.
  • vStor immutable snapshots with deletion lock help preserve recovery points from attacker-driven deletion.
  • GuardMode scans before restore help identify recovery points that are safer to bring back into production.

Recover without restoring the infection

Ransomware recovery fails when the chosen restore point carries the same encrypted or suspicious data back into production. DPX gives backup administrators more recovery context: GuardMode findings, verified backup status, and immutable vStor snapshots that can be selected as clean restore candidates.
That context helps teams recover systems and data from a point before the infection spread, reducing the risk of reinfection during the restore process.

Built for backup and security teams

Cyber resilience requires coordination between backup operations and security response. DPX helps bridge that workflow by surfacing ransomware-like indicators in the backup process, protecting restore points with immutability, and validating backups before they are used for recovery.
The result is a more defensible recovery process when executives, auditors, and incident responders ask whether the backup is clean and recoverable.

Cyber-resilient recovery capabilities

Catalogic DPX combines multiple controls that support a stronger ransomware recovery posture.

GuardMode detection icon

GuardMode detection

Detect ransomware-like behavior and suspicious or encrypted files that may indicate a compromised data set.

Backup verification icon

Backup verification

Use backup verification for VMware and block backups to confirm restore readiness before recovery.

Immutable storage icon

Immutable snapshots

Protect recovery points with vStor immutable snapshots and deletion lock.

Clean restore point icon

Clean restore points

Select recovery points with stronger evidence that they are recoverable and not carrying the infection forward.

Cyber-resilient recovery FAQ

What makes a backup cyber-resilient?
A cyber-resilient backup strategy protects restore points from deletion or tampering, validates that backups can be restored, and gives teams a way to identify clean recovery points after ransomware or suspicious activity.
How does GuardMode help ransomware recovery?
GuardMode detects ransomware-like behavior and suspicious or encrypted files. That intelligence helps administrators understand what may have been affected and choose safer recovery points.
How do immutable snapshots help?
DPX vStor immutable snapshots with deletion lock help preserve backup data against accidental deletion, malicious deletion, or attacker-driven attempts to remove recovery points.
What changed in DPX 4.13?
DPX 4.13 added backup verification and GuardMode scans for VMware and block backups before restore, helping teams validate recovery points before bringing data back into production.
