PowerProtect Cyber Recovery is designed to protect critical data from cyber threats by creating a secure, isolated environment (an air-gap) where backups can be stored. This air-gapped solution minimizes the impact of a cyber-attack by ensuring that critical data is inaccessible to attackers, even if they breach the main network. In the event of an attack, clean data from the secure vault can be used to restore the system to its pre- attack state.

Virtual Synthetic Backups are an efficient method for consolidating full and incremental backups without moving large amounts of data. This method is particularly useful when restores are frequent because it reduces the time and resources required to create new full backups. Instead, it synthesizes a full backup from previous full and incremental backups, making the restore process faster and more efficient. This helps to optimize performance and minimize the strain on the backup system during frequent restores.
