This case study explains how a billion-dollar construction firm recovered completely from a ransomware attack after its legacy backup solution failed. With more than 40 remote job sites relying on on-premises file servers, the company struggled with rising backup costs and limited visibility. After deploying a cloud-first, air-gapped backup platform, the firm centralized protection for physical servers and SaaS workloads. When ransomware compromised its network, legacy backups were unusable, but the cloud-isolated backups remained intact. Using automated restores and AWS Snowball Edge for low-bandwidth locations, the firm restored 40+ servers in days, avoided paying ransom, and reduced data protection costs by two-thirds.
