The defensive solution

Why is classic backup not enough?

Modern ransomware attacks even backups. ViVeSec Box's answer to this threat is a physically and logically isolated, immutable backup appliance that the attacker cannot modify or delete.

  • Immutable, read-only snapshots – even with compromised admin authentication
  • Closed operating environment, minimized attack surface
  • Forensic tracking and anomaly detection
  • Built-in integrity checking (sha-256 + post-quantum signatures)
ViVeSec Box vs. classic backup
Aspect ViVeSec Box Classic backup / cloud backup
Recovery after attack ✓ In minutes, under control Hours or days if the backup is affected
Delete resistance ✓ Immutable, read-only Can be modified by admin / attacker
Data sovereignty ✓ Fully on-premise Dependent on provider infrastructure
Audit and compliance ✓ With downloadable evidence Scattered logs, harder to prove

The difference becomes critical when the risk is not theoretical, but a live incident.

Technology

Hardened OS, kernel ACL, air-gap – layered protection

ViVeSec Box is not a general-purpose server but a hardened appliance: protection applies at the level of the operating system, the kernel and network exposure alike.

Executing files blocked at the operating system level

  1. 01

    The malware does not run

    Even if infected files are delivered to the device during a cyberattack, the malware remains completely inactive: no `exe` rights, no interpreter, no execution context.

  2. 02

    No lateral expansion

    Malware cannot spread to the network through the ViVeSec Box – the device is both a physical and logical endpoint, not a springboard.

This is not a reactive defense, but a structural protection: what cannot run cannot harm.

Immutable Storage

WORM (write-once-read-many) storage that even ransomware cannot modify.

  • S3-compatible API
  • Object lock & retention
  • Erasure coding

Air-gap & insulation

Zero externally accessible interfaces on the physical device – no external admin interface, no remote SSH.

  • Out-of-band management
  • Network micro-segmentation

Compliance support

It supports the implementation of NIS2, GDPR and ISO 27001 technical controls. Organisational compliance depends on the entire operating environment.

  • Detailed audit log
  • RBAC + 4-eye principle
  • Export of evidence
6-in-1 platform

Six critical IT functions – In a single, closed device

ViVeSec Box is not just a backup appliance: it is an integrated cybersecurity platform that combines six business-critical functions beyond backup - with a unified architecture, unified audit logging, and unified access management.

01

Backup

Immutable, WORM-stored backup – even ransomware cannot modify or delete data. Version tracking, retention policy, Object Lock.

02

Encrypted file sharing

End-to-end encrypted file sharing and teamwork with internal colleagues and external partners – links with password protection and audit log.

03

Encrypted team communication

Closed-chain communication server - Built-in, end-to-end encrypted chat and video conferencing – no reliance on external providers. Messaging and communication data remains on your ViVeSec Box device, without any external server involvement

04

Access/authorization management

RBAC-based authorization management, 4-eye principle for critical operations, SSO integration (LDAP / SAML / OIDC), detailed audit log.

05

Compliance & audit

Exportable audit log supporting NIS2, GDPR, ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials requirements out of the box. Tamper-evident entries with cryptographic signatures.

06

Business continuity

With a built-in UPS, it also bridges network power outages. Instant Recovery for virtual machines, instantaneous failover – even to a hybrid-cloud disaster recovery destination.

The six functions are a single, closed platform with unified administration and audit logs – not six separate licenses, not six separate vendors.

Installation

Three steps to complete protection

ViVeSec Box deployment is simple and fast – there is no need to shut down production systems.

  1. 01

    Connection

    The ViVeSec Box device connects to the existing network infrastructure in a dedicated, isolated segment.

  2. 02

    Replication

    An incremental, immutable backup is started - data is continuously replicated to the locked device.

  3. 03

    Recovery

    In the event of an incident, files and folders can be restored with one click – recovery of protected systems is dependent on the recovery time, but intact data can be accessed immediately.

Commissioning – up to 30 minutes

Implementing ViVeSec Box is not an IT project that takes weeks or months. It can be deployed without a local IT team – each configuration comes with a guided wizard. Typical deployment per endpoint within 30 minutes.

Rapid recovery after a ransomware attack

Challenge

In December 2024, a coordinated ransomware attack hit the entire internal file server and warehouse management system. Based on traditional daily backups, recovery would have taken a minimum of 3-4 days – in the middle of the Christmas season.

ViVeSec solution

By launching Instant Recovery from the ViVeSec Box immutable backup, the entire file server and warehouse management system were restored to the controlled state before the attack in 47 minutes. There was not a single day of operational downtime.

47 min actual RTO after ransomware attack

“With a traditional backup, we would have thought for days, if it would have been possible at all. The ViVeSec Box was attacked at 10:00 PM, and everyone was working by 7:00 AM.”

Healthcare provider · 3 locations

Locally stored patient data backup

Challenge

Sensitive patient data is continuously generated across multiple locations. The existing backup was cloud-based, legally risky due to cross-border data transfer. NIS2 compliance also became urgent.

ViVeSec solution

Each of the three locations has a ViVeSec Box, with encrypted replication between them. Data never leaves the customer infrastructure. RBAC + 4-eye principle for all data access, with exportable audit log.

100% On-premise storage · exportable audit log

“During the supervisory audit, the Security Target documentation and the export audit log were of great help during the audit.”

Financial institution · 50+ people

Business continuity under regulatory pressure

Challenge

The financial sector’s stringent BCP/DR requirements were not adequately supported by the existing backup system. The RTO requirement for the full annual regulatory audit was under 1 hour – the old system performed between 4-6 hours.

ViVeSec solution

Two geo-redundant ViVeSec Boxes – one at a primary and one at a disaster recovery site. Continuous replication, automated failover. Consistently performs in 15 minutes on new RTO tests.

< 15 min audited RTO, with geo-redundant configuration

“During the regulatory audit, the auditor requested an RTO test performed with ViVeSec Box as official evidence.”

The cases are anonymized.

Frequently asked questions

What you should know about ViVeSec Box

What makes ViVeSec Box different from a traditional backup?

ViVeSec Box is a closed, immutable appliance: backups are physically and logically isolated, ransomware cannot access or modify them. This is not guaranteed with classic backups.

How long does it take for business to recover after an attack?

Intact data stored on the ViVeSec Box is immediately available – there is no multi-day recovery phase. Full recovery of protected systems is a function of the recovery time, which is orders of magnitude shorter than restoring traditional backups from tape or the cloud.

What environments is it compatible with?

Windows servers and workstations, file servers, network file shares (SMB/NFS), and S3-compatible storage integrations. A detailed list will be provided during the request for quotation.

Where is the data stored?

On your own infrastructure. ViVeSec Box does not send data to third parties; all data and access are controlled solely by you.

What does the CRYSTALS-Dilithium signature and quantum resistance mean?

ViVeSec Box uses NIST-approved CRYSTALS-Dilithium post-quantum signatures to verify the integrity of saved data, combined with AES-256 symmetric encryption. This means you gain reliable long-term data integrity against current and future quantum computer attacks.

Does ViVeSec Box meet the requirements of NIS2 and DORA?

Yes. ViVeSec Box meets the immutable backup, audit log, access control and incident management capabilities required by NIS2 at the same time as deployment. For DORA-regulated financial institutions, recovery time (RTO) of less than 60 seconds and measurable business continuity are of particular value.

How is ViVeSec Box different from cloud-based backups?

Cloud-based services store backup data on the provider's infrastructure - making it vulnerable to compromise or inaccessible in the event of a service outage, and data stored with third parties is generally not acceptable in most regulatory systems. ViVeSec Box operates in your own infrastructure, with isolated, immutable storage, without external dependencies.

Do you need a dedicated IT team to operate ViVeSec Box?

No. The ViVeSec Box is a closed, hardened appliance that operates autonomously after deployment: firmware updates and security patches are managed by ViVeTech, and daily operation is limited to checking audit logs and alerts. Detailed admin tasks are included in the user manual.
