DRaaS
Fully managed disaster recovery in cloud or co-located DC — replication, orchestration, and SLA-backed failover handled by our NOC.
Service · Cloud & Infrastructure
Hope is not a recovery strategy.
Tested DRaaS, business continuity, and cyber-recovery — measurable RPO and RTO, immutable backups, and isolated clean rooms ready for the worst day. Four audited drills a year, not slideware.
< 15 min RTO Tier 1
< 1 min RPO critical DBs
4×/year audited drills
What we deliver
Three layers. One strategy.
Backup protects against accidental loss. DR protects against site-level failure. Cyber-recovery protects against an attacker who got past everything else. We design all three together — because the threats they face are not the same.
BIA & BCP
Business Impact Analysis and Business Continuity Plans — tier the workloads and pick the right pattern per RTO bucket.
RPO/RTO modelling
Workload-by-workload recovery objectives translated into a contractual SLA matrix — no hand-waving, no surprises.
Cyber-recovery vault
Immutable backups, air-gapped vault, isolated clean room — the layer that survives a ransomware operator with admin keys.
Quarterly DR drills
Four audited failover exercises a year, full stakeholder participation, success criteria, post-drill reports. Untested DR is theatre.
Multi-region replication
Active-active or active-passive across regions — KSA Central, KSA East, Egypt — with automatic failover triggers.
Recovery timeline
What the worst day actually looks like.
From the moment of incident to a fully validated, restored business — measured against the SLA your auditor will hold us to. Tier 1 workloads on the timeline below; tiered SLAs apply for Tier 2 and Tier 3.
T-0
Incident
Site failure, ransomware, region outage. NOC alarm fires.
< 1 min
RPO point
Last replicated transaction — the data we did not lose.
15 min
RTO met
Tier 1 workloads online in DR site. Customer-facing services back.
2 hr
Validated
Functional checks complete, data integrity verified, stakeholder sign-off.
24 hr
Post-incident review
Root-cause report, evidence pack, regulator-ready timeline of the day.
Methodology
Four phases. Run for a reason.
Designing DR is the cheap part. Testing it, evidencing it, and proving it survives a ransomware operator — that is the discipline.
01 · Assess
Business Impact Analysis, threat modelling, and current-state DR posture review against ISO 22301 and NCA ECC.
02 · Design
Tier the workloads, set RPO/RTO targets, choose the recovery pattern — pilot light, warm standby, multi-site active.
03 · Implement
Deploy replication, immutable vault, runbooks, and automated failover orchestration — Zerto, Veeam, Azure Site Recovery.
04 · Test & Operate
Quarterly drills with measurable success criteria. Continuous monitoring of replication health and capacity.

FAQ
Common questions.
What is the difference between backup, DR, and cyber-recovery?
Backup protects data from accidental loss. DR protects against site-level failures (hardware, power, region outages) with measurable RPO/RTO. Cyber-recovery adds an air-gapped, immutable vault that an attacker cannot reach — critical for ransomware resilience. We design all three layers as one strategy.
Do you actually test DR or just deploy it?
Every NAS DR contract includes four audited drills per year — a documented full failover with stakeholder participation, success criteria, and a post-drill report. Untested DR is theatre; we don't do theatre.
Can you achieve RTO under 15 minutes?
For Tier 1 workloads with active-active or active-warm replication on Zerto, Azure Site Recovery, or VMware SRM — yes. We will commit to the RTO contractually after the BIA, with a per-workload SLA matrix.
How do you handle ransomware specifically?
Ransomware demands a separate cyber-recovery layer: immutable backups (Veeam Hardened Repo, AWS S3 Object Lock, Rubrik), air-gapped vault, regular backup-validation tests, and an isolated recovery clean room to safely scan and restore without re-infection.
Will this satisfy NCA ECC / SAMA auditors?
Yes. Our DR designs map directly to NCA ECC controls 2-1-3 (BCM) and 2-3 (Backups), SAMA Cyber Security Framework 3.3.13, and ISO 22301. We supply the evidence pack — runbooks, drill reports, RPO/RTO metrics — that auditors expect.
