In an era marked by increasingly destructive cyber threats like ransomware and wiper attacks, traditional business continuity and disaster recovery strategies fall short. This white paper introduces the Cohesity Destructive Cyberattack Resilience Maturity Model, a practical framework that helps organizations evaluate and enhance their resilience against modern cyberattacks. By integrating IT and Security Operations within isolated clean rooms and staging environments, and aligning with industry-standard frameworks like NIST and MITRE, organizations can transition from basic recovery capabilities to a state of optimized cyber resilience.

The paper offers a roadmap for achieving robust response, containment, and recovery processes that not only withstand attacks but ensure rapid restoration of critical operations with minimal disruption.
