CSG are seeing first-hand that traditional backups just don’t cut it anymore. Cyber threats are faster to happen, the attacks are smarter and relying on “old‑school” backup methods can leave businesses exposed when it matters most.
That’s why we protect our customers with cloud disaster recovery solutions [Cloud DR], acting as more than just a safety net, but an essential way to keep your business data safe. So where does AI come into all this? At CSG, we use our most advanced disaster recovery solutions which has led the way for the whole recovery process to level up.
At CSG, we’re excited to explore further how AI is changing how we protect our customers. Instead of waiting for something to break, we use AI to spot issues early, defend backups from ransomware which further helps your business recover faster and more securely. It’s pretty much just a much smarter way to prepare for the unexpected.
AI-driven malware-free recoveries
One of the ways that we help protect your business with the latest disaster recovery AI tools is built-in anti-malware scanning, using machine learning to automatically scan backups and locate recovery points for malware. This helps to prevent infected data from being restored.
“We work closely with our Acronis partners to help ensure that our customers receive a clean recovery point which helps stop ransomware reinfection after any data is restored. This is helping customers with a fast, clean recovery process which helps protect businesses from further compromise.” – Ricky Killa, Regional Sales Director at CSG Computer Services Ltd.
Push-button automated Disaster Recovery
Acronis combines its AnyData Engine with AI-enhanced orchestration tools and runbooks to simplify even complex recovery plans:
- One-click recovery for servers or entire data centres
- Automated execution of AI-defined recovery sequences
The data sheet confirms:
“Acronis Disaster Recovery Service can reliably recover your servers or entire data centres … has performed hundreds of push-of-a-button recoveries.” – Acronis.
Fewer manual steps mean fewer errors – and faster, more reliable failovers.
Smart cloud & hybrid failover options
AI is helping optimise failover environments using intelligent resource and infrastructure selection:
- Supports local and cloud-based recovery [Acronis Cloud Appliance, virtual private cloud, Azure tiers]
- Chooses the right RTO/RPO strategy for cost, compliance and performance
This flexibility ensures your disaster recovery plan has been drafted specific to your business needs, whether you prefer fully cloud-based or hybrid deployments.
Scheduled testing with insights
With AI-guided automated testing, we help ensure your DR plans work as expected, before a disaster strikes. This is achieved through:
- Regular, scheduled role plays of your DR runbooks
- Validates that applications recover in the correct sequence
- Identifies misconfigurations or delays before they impact real users
Proactive testing and recovery verification is there to give your team a peace of mind that we are working in the background to keep your data safe and there when you need it the most.
Enhanced security
At CSG, we know that true cyber resilience isn’t just about having backups, it’s about having intelligent protection wrapped around every part of your IT environment. That’s why we use a fully integrated approach that blends AI-driven technology with advanced cyber security:
- Instead of separating backup and security tools, we combine them. Acronis uses machine‑learning anti‑malware that constantly scans your systems and your backups, so even your recovery points stay clean and usable if the worst happens
- We don’t wait for systems to fail. AI monitors disk behaviour and performance trends, giving early warnings before a problem turns into a major outage. It means businesses can fix issues proactively, not reactively
- With AI watching for unusual patterns [like ransomware attempts or suspicious processes starting] CSG can stop threats before they spread. This keeps your data, backups and recovery environment secure from modern attacks
By combining AI with cyber security tools in a single platform, we help you move from reactive recovery to predictive, intelligent protection. It’s a smarter, more resilient way to stay ahead of cyber threats and it’s exactly how CSG ensures our clients can recover quickly and confidently, no matter what happens.
