Intelligent Bulk Remediation

Patented surgical recovery that identifies exactly which files were affected by an attack and restores only those files from immutable snapshots — thousands of files in minutes, not days.

Traditional recovery is too slow and too broad

After a ransomware attack, traditional recovery means restoring entire volumes or file systems from backup — a process that takes hours or days, requires systems to go offline, and often restores from backup copies that may themselves be compromised.

Intelligent Bulk Remediation takes a fundamentally different approach: identify exactly what was affected, and restore only those files — surgically, automatically, and from trusted immutable snapshots.

How It Works

From attack to recovery in minutes

1

Attack Detected & Contained

Active Defense detects the attack, stops the malicious session, and isolates the threat — all in under a second.

2

Affected Files Identified

IBR uses BrickStor SP's forensic audit trail to identify exactly which files the attacker touched — no guesswork, no manual file-by-file analysis.

3

Clean Versions Located

IBR identifies the last known good version of each affected file from immutable snapshots, ensuring recovery from trusted, pre-attack data.

4

Surgical Bulk Restore

Only the affected files are restored in bulk — thousands of files in seconds. Unaffected data remains untouched and available throughout.

Why IBR changes the recovery equation

Restore thousands of affected files in minutes, not days
Surgical precision — only restore what was impacted, not the entire file system
No manual file-by-file forensics or guesswork about which files were compromised
Unaffected data stays online and accessible throughout the recovery process
Recover from immutable, trusted snapshots — not potentially compromised backups
Full forensic audit trail of every affected file for incident reporting and compliance

Frequently asked questions

Intelligent Bulk Remediation (IBR) is RackTop's patented technology for surgical, automated recovery after a cyber attack. It identifies exactly which files were affected and restores them in bulk from immutable snapshots — without disrupting unaffected data.
IBR uses BrickStor SP's immutable forensic audit trail, which records every file operation with full context. When Active Defense stops an attack, IBR correlates the malicious session's activity to identify every file that was modified, encrypted, or deleted.
IBR can restore thousands of affected files in seconds to minutes, depending on the scope of the attack. Because it only restores affected files — not entire volumes — recovery is dramatically faster than traditional approaches.
Yes. Intelligent Bulk Remediation is protected by U.S. Patent 12,561,437, titled "Cybersecurity active defense and rapid bulk recovery in a data storage system."
Yes. IBR restores files from immutable snapshots, including those protected by ImmutaVault. This ensures recovery from trusted, indelible recovery points that survive even privileged credential compromise.
