Project description: “Defending the Castle” is the short-term and immediatephase of  our customers AI threat resilience response. The purpose is tobuy time by increasing detection, response, containment and recovery readinesswhile a broader Phase 2 plan is prepared for the rest of the Business IT units.

Task description

-   Conceptual development and structured implementation of theimmediate disaster recovery and resilience workstream for the “Defending theCastle” initiative.

-   Preparation of documentation and concepts to enableoperational recovery of the most viable operations if AI-augmented compromisecauses disruption, data damage, ransomware-style encryption, destructiveactivity or service unavailability

-   Identification and definition of recovery priorities, minimumviable operations, restoration sequencing, dependency mapping and backupvalidation schemes for hybrid Azure and on-premise’ environments.

-   Creation of practical Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)and recovery playbooks covering recovery coordination, data integrityvalidation, clean-room restoration, crisis handover procedures andpost-recovery assurance.

-   Provision of evidence-based technical analysis and readinessdocumentation by end of Q1 2027 to facilitate strategic decision-making for Phase2 planning for broader business IT resilience.

Quality

-   Technical review of Recovery plans across applications,infrastructure, Azure, cyber defense, incident response and business continuityfunctions.

-   Evaluation and technical assessment of restore tests assessedagainst recovery time, recovery point, integrity, dependency and operationalhand-back criteria.

-   Execution and technical documentation, simulations andscenario-based playbook validations, beyond theoretical proof.

-   Identification, evaluation and documentation of residualrisks, mitigation plans and escalation preparations for our customer riskmanagement.

-   Provision of a structured handover of a Phase 2 backlog andrecommendations for the broader Business IT resilience plan after Q1 2027.

-   Development of Disaster Recovery (DR) & ResilienceStrategy Specifications for hybrid Azure and on-premise’ environments.

-   Clarification of restoration priorities to preserve minimumviable operations and reduce business disruption.

-   Validation of backup integrity, restore procedures anddependency assumptions before they are needed in crisis conditions.

-   Creation of a common recovery model for stakeholderalignment (Disaster Recovery (DR), incident response, security monitoring,infrastructure, application

-   Creation of comprehensive documentation with all resultsregarding the above-mentioned tasks with subsequent handover to our customerfor review and approval for further usage.
