Who could have guessed that having tested, well protected and current backups help when dealing with cyber security incidents?

    Hard to judge from the outside, but I would say you were prepared (with room for improvement).

    • You had working backups
    • Your backups were well protected
    • You did not pay the ransom
    • You were able to work with the limited tools you had
    • And everything restored within one month.

    Companies that are not well prepared:

    • Have no backups or their backups encrypted, too
    • Are not able to operate during the recovery phase
    • Pay the ransom
    • Have no plan in what order to restore stuff
    • Are impacted even one year later … or go bankrupt.
