The tight integration between Elastio and AWS Backup service enables a cost effective an easy-to-manage malware/ransomware solution across accounts of an organization. "INCLUDES Elastio Ransomware Recovery Platform for AWS Backup".

    Overview

    In addition to AWS zone/region outages and localized data corruption events, customers must have plans for recovering from malware/ransomware attacks. The AWS Backup for Ransomware PoC packaged service solution is geared towards mitigating the impact of a ransomware event. At its core, it uses AWS Backup’s Logically air-gapped (LAG) vault capability for securing backed up data in a separate dedicated account from the Workload accounts. Leveraging AWS Backup service, this solution enables data backup for the following services: Amazon EC2, Amazon EBS, Amazon FSx (NetApp ONTAP, EFS, OpenZFS, Windows File Server, Lustre), Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, Amazon Timestream, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Aurora, Amazon Neptune, Amazon RDS, Amazon DocumentDB, VMware Cloud on AWS, AWS Storage Gateway, and AWS Outposts. This solution includes deployment of a Delegated Backup account, Data Bunker account, and KMS account for specific purposes. The Data Bunker account hosts a 3rd party malware/ransomware SaaS solution (Elastio), or similar provider, to scan restore points produced by AWS Backup service in Workload accounts. Monitoring, auditing, and reporting for compliance is provided via AWS Backup Audit Manager in the Backup account. This solution requires a landing zone to already be in place. If a landing zone is not in place, Insight may deploy one of its landing zone packaged offerings for an additional fee. Workload accounts must already exist. One Recovery account may be deployed in this solution for restore testing purposes.

    Use cases

    Ransomware Mitigation

    Ransomware mitigation in AWS environments is challenging without an integrated solution. Leveraging a single delegated Backup account simplifies creation and management of backup plans. Local AWS Backup service execute backups per backup plans and send a secondary copy of backups into a Logical Air-Gapped Vault in the Data Bunker account with up to 1-hour frequency. Backup completion in workload accounts trigger an Elastio Lambda function in the Data Bunker account to remotely scan the backup.
