Ransomware Resilience Depends on Tested Recovery

5 November 2026

By Sunil Parajuli

Technology teams are moving quickly in ransomware resilience, but useful adoption depends on understanding both the opportunity and the operational risk.

What is changing

A backup is valuable only if attackers cannot alter it and operators can restore it within business requirements. Identity compromise often lets ransomware spread beyond a single endpoint.

What technology leaders should do

Separate backup credentials, keep immutable copies, test full restoration and rehearse decisions with business and technical leaders.

The practical goal is not to adopt every new capability. It is to choose a clear use case, establish measurable success criteria, and build security and accountability into the system from the beginning.
