WHEN AN ATTACK SUCCEEDS, RECOVERY CANNOT FAIL!

Modern ransomware and destructive attacks no longer target only production data—they aim to compromise backups before triggering, making any recovery impossible. For a CISO, the real question is no longer “when will we be attacked?” but “will we be able to recover?”

Dell and Seclab provide a joint solution: a digital vault for strategic data and backups, physically and logically unreachable. This secured vault ensures information integrity, protects backups from ransomware, and guarantees business recovery in the event of a disaster.

A Unique Solution

DELL PowerProtect Cyber Recovery

THE INTELLIGENT DIGITAL VAULT

A vault isolated from the production IT environment, designed to withstand a total network compromise:

Immutability: Backed-up data cannot be modified or deleted, even by a compromised administrator.
CyberSense: AI-based behavioral analysis detects any corruption or malware injection in backups before restoration.
Recovery Orchestration: The solution includes automated recovery and restoration procedures to minimize downtime.

Limitations Without Seclab

Replication flows must be periodically opened to the vault, creating exposure windows that attackers can exploit.

Backups may fail if they are not fully completed during the open window.

Administrative flows also require airtight isolation to prevent unauthorized access.

Seclab Xchange — Electronic AirGap

PERMANENT NETWORK SEAL

Patented uni- or bi-directional data transfer technology: no direct network connection is ever established between the IT environment and the vault. Seclab Xchange secures:

Administrative flows: Vault management and access are enabled without network exposure, following a Zero-Trust principle — no operator ever has full control over the flows.
Backup and replication flows: Data moves to the vault without opening the security perimeter, even during replication.
Result: The digital vault remains fully hermetic at all times — no network vector can reach it, ever.

Benefits Delivered by Seclab

Zero exposure window for backup and administrative flows.

No exploitable time slots for attackers.

Long-term protection for critical backups.

For Unmatched Resilience

Unreachable Vault
No network vectors to the vault—from production or administration. What attackers can’t reach, they can’t encrypt.

Verified Recovery
CyberSense ensures data integrity before any restoration. Recovery is fast, auditable, and malware‑free.

NIS2, ISO27001 Compliance
Architecture aligns with compliance requirements: system isolation, access traceability, recovery testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can IT backups be protected against ransomware attacks?Marion Bulteau2026-04-02T09:36:11+02:00

How can IT backups be protected against ransomware attacks?

Ransomware attackers now target backups as a priority: before encrypting production systems, they try to destroy or compromise backups to make recovery impossible. Protecting backups against ransomware relies on three fundamental principles.

Network isolation of the backup vault
An effective digital vault must never be directly accessible from production or administration networks, even during replication. Seclab Xchange’s Electronic AirGap technology ensures this permanent isolation through unidirectional or bidirectional data transfer, without any exploitable open network flow.
Immutability of stored data
Once stored in the Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery vault, backups cannot be modified or deleted — even by a compromised administrator account. Immutability provides a final line of defense against attackers who have obtained elevated privileges in the IT system.
Integrity verification before restoration
Restoring a contaminated backup would reintroduce ransomware into a system that has just been cleaned. Dell CyberSense analyzes backup content with artificial intelligence to detect any corruption or malware injection before initiating recovery.

The Dell x Seclab solution thus ensures that backups are fully protected against ransomware attacks.

What does the Dell Technologies and Seclab partnership cover in IT cybersecurity?

The Dell Technologies and Seclab partnership combines two complementary technologies to deliver a comprehensive IT resilience solution against cyberattacks: an intelligent digital vault from Dell, and physical isolation of data flows from Seclab.

Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery protects and restores critical data in a vault isolated from the production IT environment. The solution features immutable backups, AI-driven malware detection via CyberSense, and automated recovery orchestration to minimize downtime after a cyberattack.

Seclab Xchange enhances this architecture with its patented Electronic AirGap technology, securing both administration and replication flows to the Dell vault. This eliminates any network exposure window, even during backup operations. Whereas Dell’s solution alone requires periodically opening network flows to replicate data, Seclab keeps the vault permanently sealed.

Together, the Dell x Seclab solution ensures robust protection of backups, particularly against ransomware attacks.
