EC2 File-Level Restore

Storytime

The insurance company’s efforts to protect against ransomware attacks were put to the test when they were hit with another attack. The attack occurred late at night on a weekend when most of the IT staff were off-duty. The on-call IT staff member received alerts from the monitoring system indicating that critical files had been corrupted, and the website was down.


In case a disaster strikes, you can recover corrupted or missing files of an EC2 instance from a cloud-native snapshot or image-level backup. Veeam Backup for AWS allows you to download the necessary files and folders to a local machine or restore the files and folders to the source EC2 instance using the file-level recovery browser.
