Disaster Recovery for Identity

Disaster Recovery for Identity protects AD and Entra ID from a single cloud platform, delivering secure, malware-free recovery with high availability and instant restoration. As the first-to-market comprehensive SaaS-based disaster recovery solution for on-premises AD environments, it's always on, always updated and always available via the Quest unified identity cloud platform.

• Supporting critical on-premises infrastructure — Despite the growing adoption of cloud technologies, many industries—such as banking, government, insurance, and healthcare—remain deeply entrenched in their on-premises infrastructure due to regulatory and operational requirements. When attacks occur, the traditional separation between AD admin teams and security teams often causes delays, confusion, and significant business impact.

• Efficiency and speed in recovery — While traditional enterprise backup solutions can take days or weeks to restore operations, Disaster Recovery for Identity recovers systems in minutes or hours, significantly reducing downtime when the cost can exceed $1M/hour. This rapid recovery capability is a key differentiator compared to other Active Directory backup and recovery methods.

• Comprehensive protection through a single interface — Modern disaster recovery solutions should be part of a single interface for managing the entire security lifecycle. Our unified approach aligns with frameworks like the NIST CSF, covering all pillars: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover, and Govern. This empowers IT teams to manage the entire recovery process independently, without requiring coordination between multiple teams.

• Lower costs and enhanced security — By leveraging cloud-based recovery, organizations can eliminate server and operating system costs while also reducing hardware expenses over time. The solution is particularly valuable for organizations with regulatory constraints that prevent them from fully migrating to the cloud, allowing them to benefit from enhanced security features provided by cloud providers like Microsoft.
