Ransomware Security | Recovery you can prove

Attackers use AI to get in.

Elastio AI finds active compromises in your systems so your team can respond before data theft and encryption, and proves which copy is clean to recover from.

  • Pursuit investigates your systems. Hunt hunts ransomware in your data. Together, they prove which copy is clean to recover from.

Illustrative estate. Your findings come from your data.

Elastio’s AI investigates your systems the way an IR analyst would.

Attackers get in through zero-day exploits, stolen credentials, unpatched vulnerabilities, and supply-chain compromise. Patching a vulnerability does not establish that the attacker is gone.

Pursuit analyzes snapshots outside the running system, with no Pursuit agent on the host to disable. Its AI follows leads through code and system records to uncover persistence, credential theft, movement between systems, and data theft, without requiring a known signature.

Analysis runs at the frequency you set. Your responders receive the evidence to contain the attack and remove access. Pursuit produces this investigation detail in about 20 minutes per host, compared with 1 to 5 days of manual collection.

An attack moves through seven stages.
EDR / XDR
01Initial accessStolen credentials, a zero-day, or AI-led entry.
02ExecutionPayloads run on the endpoint.
Pursuit · Detects the active compromise
03PersistenceA foothold is set. The attacker blends in with normal activity.
04Lateral movementThe attacker spreads across hosts.
05Data theftData is staged and taken before ransomware fires.
Hunt · Identifies ransomware damage
06EncryptionRansomware fires. Copies written from here carry the attack.
07RecoveryPursuit and Hunt establish which copy is clean to restore.

42 of 500 public machine images carried malicious persistence.

In 2026, Pursuit analyzed 500 public marketplace machine images, the templates enterprises build servers from. Findings included command-and-control infrastructure and credential theft tools, traced to supporting files, registry entries, and hashes.

A compromised image can give new systems attacker access from startup.

Provable recovery starts with the live data.

Hunt is the recovery intelligence layer for your live data, replicas, and backups. It continuously checks for ransomware, malware, and corruption at the frequency you set, giving your team evidence of which copy is clean before recovery is required.

Pursuit checks the same copy for attacker activity. A copy is proven clean when Pursuit finds no attack in the system and Hunt finds no ransomware in the data. Each result records what was analyzed and when.

Building an AWS cyber vault?

Make your cyber vault’s recovery promise provable. Hunt analyzes vaulted copies read-only and provides evidence of which are clean, how recent they are, and what was checked. Pursuit adds the investigation for attacker activity.

What security leaders say.
  • “You don't want to just be looking at your backups and the recovery. You want to be able to say, I've found a particular zero-day, and see where it's touched.”

    Security LeaderGlobal Bank
  • “We need to show financial regulators we are proactively protecting backups and can prove recovery. Elastio helps us make that case to our board under DORA.”

    Service Cloud Infrastructure ManagerRetail Banking Company
  • “Our CISO is going to the board to request a budget. His message is that Elastio is a need.”

    Sr. Manager Global Cloud SecurityPayment Processing Company
  • “This is a board-driven mandate with monthly update meetings. We have a gap in AWS, and if we get hit, I am on the hot seat.”

    Head of Ransomware ResponseFinancial Services Firm
  • “If a bank goes down for three days, the FDIC steps in and sells you. Resilience is near and dear to me as we expand to AWS.”

    SVP CloudFinancial Services Firm
  • “Attacks keep happening even with perimeter security in place. If you ask me whether our backups are clean today, the honest answer is we do not know.”

    CTOInsurance Provider
  • “We need something that, if a suspicious activity is found, we want the SOC to be aware of it and take some action right away.”

    Security EngineeringGovernment Technology Contractor
  • “Other platforms have zero detection functionality on the backup and recovery side. We are completely blind, and nobody is taking it seriously.”

    Director Security ArchitectureGlobal Retail Brand
  • “As a financial institution, we are obligated to run a robust cyber program. We do not have anything like this, and we definitely should.”

    Business Continuity Program ManagerReinsurance Company
  • “We need to confirm our backups are not encrypted without us knowing. If that happened without detection, it would be a disaster.”

    AWS Technical LeadRetail Banking Company
  • “You have figured out how to apply deterministic and behavioral analysis to backups. This goes far beyond signature-based scanning.”

    Lead SOC EngineerGlobal Insurance Provider
  • On firewalls, load balancers, and gateways:

    “We don't have anything that looks inside them.”

    CISOEnterprise
  • “The main regulation that we're going to be complying with is DORA. We need to be able to test and restore from backup much more successfully. At the moment that's a challenge.”

    Enterprise Security ArchitectUK Financial Services Organization
  • “Elastio helps companies after an attack, not just before. That is what makes it different.”

    Director of Information SecurityGlobal Retail Brand
  • “Our executives asked us to build a presentation on our AWS Cyber Vault strategy with Elastio. Ransomware readiness is a key priority.”

    Sr. Infrastructure ArchitectInsurance Company
  • “You guys have a totally different aspect of this. You're all about the data.”

    Cybersecurity AdvisorGlobal Advisory Firm
  • “Having proof that we can recover if hit by ransomware is invaluable. We are moving forward with a POC.”

    CISOBilling and Payment Solutions Company
  • “Ransomware resilience is a key priority for us this year. There is great interest in building a bunker account and recovery strategy.”
