Disaster recovery plan: Get a solution that works in practice – CapaInstaller has already helped companies recover after severe attacks
Most large companies have a disaster recovery plan in place. However, many have not considered that disasters often begin with the employees’ devices.
When cyberattacks, network outages, or system failures disrupt the infrastructure, it’s the endpoints – computers, laptops, and mobile devices – that first lose connection. And without access to systems, applications, and data, work grinds to a halt.
Why start DR at endpoints?
Because that’s where the work happens, even the best backup solution is useless if users can’t access their equipment. Employees must be able to restore and continue working – even if the connection to the cloud or network is lost.
Three common threats to your endpoints:
- Ransomware encrypts local files and blocks access
- Network outages shut down cloud-based systems
- Failed deployments cause downtime and lost productivity
Offline endpoint management = robust preparedness
CapaInstaller is designed to work – even without an internet connection. You can:
• Restore operating systems and applications locally
• Deploy software in closed environments
• Maintain control and documentation – without network access
DR is not just about backup – it’s about access and the ability to act.
A disaster recovery plan that doesn’t include your endpoints is incomplete. With an offline-capable solution, work can continue – even in the event of a disaster.
It works in practice
CapaSystems has used CapaInstaller to help companies recover when everything else was down. In real-world situations, ransomware attacks or network collapses left customers without access, as their existing cloud-based solutions required internet connectivity.
With CapaInstaller, however, devices could be entirely reinstalled from scratch (bare metal) – without using the internet or cloud. As a result, customers could quickly resume operations and avoid critical delays.
Conclusion
DR is not just about backup – it’s about access and the ability to act.
A disaster recovery plan that doesn’t include your endpoints is incomplete. With an offline-capable solution like CapaInstaller, you ensure that work can continue – even in the event of a disaster.
