IGEL has introduced IGEL for Business Continuity, which empowers organisations to recover in minutes from compromised Windows endpoints due to ransomware and other cyberattacks. This fast-acting new subscription-based service also enables employees to work from home in the increasingly common event of extreme weather, natural disaster, fire or flood.

“Cyberattacks are at an all-time high, the average data breach costs companies nearly $5m, and IBM analysis indicates 90% of attacks originate at endpoint devices,” said Matthias Haas, IGEL Chief Technology Officer. “That puts endpoints and organisations at risk, interrupts business operations, and drains technical and financial resources. But it doesn’t have to be this way! IGEL for Business Continuity keeps employees connected and business moving forward.”

IGEL for Business Continuity springs into action to recover Windows operating systems using the impacted hardware, makes it simple for end users to clean boot their own machines to IGEL OS via a second partition or UD Pocket USB drive and restores connections to Windows 365 and other software-as-a-service tools as upstream services are recovered and brought back online.

This is far faster and more efficient than the traditional approach, which requires IT teams to visit and manually re-image the devices. When multiple devices are impacted, this outdated, manually-intensive approach can take days, weeks or even months to address the urgent need.

“When disaster strikes, you need to act fast,” Haas said. “IGEL for Business Continuity makes that quick and easy, employing the power of IGEL’s Preventative Security ModelTM to restore compromised devices and increase business productivity. With just a few simple instructions, every end user can now clean boot their machines to IGEL OS and resume their work.”
