Interface
Two views. Fortress and Escape.
Recovery Shield is the dashboard for cyber resilience — Fortress shows your protection posture, Escape shows your recovery options ranked fastest-first. Designed for the moment you need it. Tested in production.

The Fortress view is your daily check-in. Every device. Every backup. Every canary status. Color-graded posture indicators — green (healthy), amber (warning), red (action needed). Built for the IT admin who scans it for 30 seconds and moves on.
- Did backup run? Are canaries clean? Is retention healthy? Is anything overdue?
- Color-graded posture — green healthy, amber warning, red action needed
- A 30-second daily scan, then move on

The Escape view is your “oh no” view. The 5 recovery paths stacked top-to-bottom, fastest-first, color-graded by speed. For the machine you're recovering, only the available paths show — Always-Ready VM only if it's configured, Cloud Desktop only with credits, USB Recovery always available. You click the top one. That's it.
- The 5 paths stacked fastest-first, color-graded by speed
- Only the paths available for THIS machine right now
- Click the top one — that's the whole interaction
Click to enlargeThe Escape Stack
The five paths, ranked fastest-first.
Same five paths everywhere in BigMind — here they're stacked the way Escape view presents them on recovery day. Only the paths available for the machine you're recovering actually show.
Always-Ready VM
Shown only if configured for this machine. Pre-launched and warm — click recover, RDP in. The fast full-machine path.
Learn moreInstant Recovery
Cold-boot any image as a raw EBS volume in AWS. Add Always-Ready to turn the cold rebuild into ~5 minutes.
Learn moreCloud Desktop
Shown only with credits. Boot any backup as a metered Windows VM — pay only while it runs. (→ ~5 min with Always-Ready.)
Learn moreUSB / Full System Restore
Always available. Cross-hardware bare-metal restore from a USB. No cloud required, air-gap-compatible.
Learn moreBrowse Files
Drill into any image and pull a single file in seconds. No full restore needed.
Learn moreHow It Ranks
The logic.
Speed
Fastest path on top. The one you should click first for the disaster you're facing.
Availability
Only the paths that work for THIS machine RIGHT NOW — Always-Ready only if configured, Cloud Desktop only with credits, USB always available.
Cost
Each path is labeled — flat fee, metered, or included — so you know the bill before you click.
Tier-required
Labeled clearly when a path needs a plan upgrade, so there are no surprises mid-incident.
Misclick Guard
Confirm before firing.
Recovery actions confirm before firing. Always-Ready and Instant Recovery launch immediately, but Cloud Desktop and USB Recovery require a “yes, do this” confirmation. We don't accidentally bill metered Cloud Desktop hours from a misclick.
Tier Availability
Same UI on every tier.
DR-Only, Standard, Pro, Enterprise on Resilience; Free, Plus, Pro on DR. UI is the same; available recovery paths differ by tier.
Coming Q3 2026 to Resilience Pro
Business-Priority Recovery — Recovery Plans.
Recovery Plans you build once, run during incidents, drill quarterly. Tag every machine with a priority group (Identity → Databases → Applications → Files → Endpoints), then orchestrate the restore in the right order with verification gates between groups. Drill Mode for quarterly testing.
The UI you'll actually use.
