![Rubrik Hybrid Identity Recovery](https://www.daymarksi.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rubrik%20Hybrid%20Identity%20Recovery.png?width=1920&height=1080&name=Rubrik%20Hybrid%20Identity%20Recovery.png)

In today's threat landscape, identity is the new perimeter—and for most organizations, Microsoft Active Directory (AD) and Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) are that perimeter. When compromised, these systems expose everything: users, access, applications, and core business operations. For CISOs and IT leaders tasked with securing and sustaining identity services, traditional recovery methods often fall short—too slow, fragmented, or insecure for today's hybrid enterprises.

Rubrik’s Hybrid Identity Recovery delivers the speed, visibility, and resilience modern organizations require, enabling businesses to bounce back quickly from ransomware, insider threats, or operational failures—without reintroducing risk.

**The Threat Landscape is Escalating: **

- 80% of breach exposures in 2023 were linked to Active Directory
- There has been a 71% year-over-year increase in identity-targeted attacks (2022–2023)

From ransomware to insider abuse, compromised identity systems are now one of the fastest ways to access a business’s most sensitive data.

Traditional AD recovery is slow, complex, and risky, often requiring painstaking manual efforts across multiple domains. Worse yet, reintroducing backups without validation can reinfect systems, prolonging downtime and increasing costs.

**Built for Hybrid Identity Infrastructures**

In today’s hybrid world, identity lives everywhere. Rubrik’s Hybrid Identity Recovery combines Zero Trust principles, immutable backups, and automated orchestration to rapidly unify and recover AD and Entra ID—minimizing business disruption with:

- Single pane of glass for visibility and control
- Centralized policy management with SLAs
- Flexible restore options to the same or alternate hosts (VM, bare metal, or cloud)

Rubrik Hybrid Identity Recovery allows enterprises to:

- Quickly restore identity systems after a breach
- Minimize downtime and avoid costly outages
- Strengthen cyber posture with a Zero Trust foundation
- Protect cloud-native and legacy identity systems with equal confidence

**Here are its key features: **

- **Immutable Backups & Clean Room Recovery**

Rubrik’s logically air-gapped backups ensure that identity data cannot be modified or encrypted by attackers. If environments are compromised, recovery takes place in an isolated, clean room, reducing the risk of reinfection and ensuring a return to a trusted state.

- **Streamlined Active Directory Forest Recovery**

Rubrik orchestrates full forest recovery using a wizard-driven workflow that eliminates the guesswork, reducing a complex 20+ step procedure to 5 simple questions. Whether restoring the entire forest, specific domains, or individual domain controllers, organizations can recover in minutes—on-prem, to cloud, or to an alternate infrastructure.

- **Entra ID Recovery **

Built with the cloud-native challenges of Entra ID in mind, Rubrik enables recovery of:

- Users and groups
- App registrations and enterprise apps
- Conditional access policies

Rubrik ensures resilience even if the Entra Recycle Bin fails—allowing administrators to restore to a known-good snapshot with full object relationships and permissions intact.

- **Granular Object-Level Restoration**

Rubrik empowers IT teams to search and restore individual AD and Entra ID objects—including user accounts, groups, attributes, and policies. A live object comparison feature enables attribute-level recovery, so teams can precisely repair damage from misconfigurations or targeted attacks without over-restoring.

- **Automated Discovery & Protection**

Rubrik Security Cloud continuously scans and inventories AD and Entra environments. It maps out domain hierarchies, FSMO roles, and critical services like DNS and DHCP. This intelligence allows for targeted, prioritized recovery when time is critical.

**Business Continuity, Beyond Backup**

Rubrik doesn’t just “bring back data”—it restores trust in identity systems. That means:

- Recovery to known-good states—even in completely compromised environments
- Rapid return to operations, minimizing downtime and revenue loss
- Flexible recovery to original infrastructure, new hosts, or cloud instances

**How Daymark Can Help**

** **In a world where identity is the new perimeter, your business can’t function securely without identity. Rubrik Hybrid Identity Recovery ensures that after a cyber event, your organization doesn’t just survive—it recovers with confidence and continuity, enabling you to move quickly and recover across hybrid environments.

Daymark has a long-standing strategic partnership with Rubrik, and we’re excited about the functionality and protection this solution brings to our clients’ security strategies. We’ve seen it in action first-hand, and we’re impressed. If you’d like to explore Rubrik Hybrid Identity Recovery, we’d be happy to talk.
