Ransomware & disaster recovery with AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery
summary
Elastic Disaster Recovery (DRS) uses agent-based block-level replication to copy x86 servers from on‑prem, other clouds or physical hosts into a low‑cost AWS staging area, taking immutable EBS snapshots every ~10 minutes so RPOs approach near‑zero and snapshots remain tamper‑proof. Recovery runs in isolated VPCs for non‑disruptive testing, integrates with CrowdStrike/SentinelOne for detection, requires no secondary data‑center hardware, and supports failover with rollback or continued run on AWS — all while avoiding upfront DR capital.
