Axcient helped by developing AirGap technology, which separates backup data deletion requests from the actual deletion process, making backup data immutable for a set retention period. This layers a critical defense against ransomware by creating "honeypots" that fake successful deletions to attackers while protecting real data on isolated storage tiers. Human controls restrict who can request deletions, and the system ensures backups are recoverable even after sophisticated cyberattacks, enabling near-instant recovery and keeping MSP clients’ data safe from malicious deletion.
