[QUOTE="Amelith Nargothrond, post: 611327, member: 60405"] In my test environment, the restore process was automatic in case of a ransomware attack. And also stopped the ransomware samples I used. Got to make time to test others as well. I almost agree with [USER=7463]@cruelsister[/USER] , by design, it's best to restore the entire system, with all the partitions and data, if: [LIST=1] [*]you have an army of technicians available at any given time, to maintain and keep up-to-date (scheduled backups don't always work, you often have to maintain them <- this is my experience) and then restore if necessary, all those Macrium backups [*]if you have a lot of money to spend on Macrium licenses (my clients.. well, they don't); check their pricing plans [*]if you have a serious storage server(s) to handle multiple backups (full, incremental or differential) and store all those data (and also to protect it, as storage is vulnerable) [/LIST] I personally prefer both. In an enterprise environment, I would (and I am) using Macrium for critical servers (as the server license is expensive) and use other solutions, like Ranstop or Appcheck, for workstations. But nevertheless I would install it on the server as well, if not, to protect other PCs in the network, again, not to waste time to restore macrium backups for more than the minimum number of pcs (if I could, but right now I don't, they don't support servers). My dilemma as well, but I think I am choosing Ranstop, because they have backups with file versions (and they back up everything - configurable - after the install, not just when attacked). Though my second option I think it would be Appcheck. I still need time to test. By the way guys, are there any other similar apps out there? Proactive protection at kernel level + automatic backup + automatic restore? [/QUOTE]
