Cyber-First AD Disaster Recovery
Active Directory recovery has evolved. Traditional AD recovery methods can take days after a ransomware or wiper attack. Semperis automates forest recovery to cut downtime by 90%, avoid human error, and prevent malware reinfection.

Evaluating your Options
Traditional AD backup tools only address recovery from IT operational issues, where Active Directory is affected but host servers are not. And legacy methods like bare-metal recovery carry severe underlying issues, particularly when restoring AD after a cyberattack. Considering that cyber disasters now inflict more business damage than natural disasters and strike more frequently, it’s time to think “cyber-first”.
