Ransomware Recovery Services
We restore your systems in business order, identity first, from backups we check before anything reconnects.
Ransomware recovery is the work of restoring a business's systems and data after a ransomware attack in an order that keeps the attacker out: identity first, then the systems the business needs most, each restored from known-good backups into a clean environment and checked before it reconnects. BD Emerson runs recovery alongside the forensic investigation, so restoration decisions rest on what the evidence shows about how the attackers got in, when, and what they touched.
Most recoveries run on backups. A decryptor, if leadership and counsel decide to pay for one, is often slow or incomplete, and the systems still need rebuilding because the attacker controlled them. The sanctions question under OFAC's 2021 advisory comes before any payment discussion, and the FBI does not support paying ransoms.
We work for organizations whose systems are down or only partly restored, often while an incident response firm, ours or another, is still investigating. The goal is the order, billing, production, and payroll processes back on a schedule the business can plan around, without reopening the door the attacker used.
We list what is down, what survived, and what the business needs first, and agree a recovery order with leadership, counsel, and the investigation team.
A clean identity service and new credentials come first, in an isolated environment, because restoring servers into a compromised directory hands the attacker back the keys.
Systems come back from validated backups in dependency order, and each one is checked for the attacker's persistence and by its business owner before users return.
Restored systems rejoin the network in stages, under monitoring tuned to this attacker, and the remaining root-cause fixes move into a remediation plan with owners and dates.
The team restoring your systems works beside the investigation, so evidence is preserved before anything is wiped, and every restore decision uses what the forensics shows about when and how the attackers got in.
Ransomware operators work through the identity system. We rebuild or recover Active Directory and Entra ID before restoring the servers that depend on them, so restored systems do not reconnect to accounts the attacker controls.
The recovery plan names each business process, the systems it needs, the order they return in, and who confirms them, so leadership can tell customers, staff, and partners when operations resume.

We had a hard time finding the right company to partner with in support of our compliance journey. Some vendors sell the idea that they do the work, but then you end up doing everything. The ambiguity is what killed our last project. BD Emerson’s team has such great technical knowledge and understands the standard so well that they made us comfortable with moving fast. This has led to us closing major enterprise customers that were previously out of reach because of security and compliance.
Lead an enterprise initiative to overhaul the organization's technology stack from ecommerce, corporate tech, and corporate security.
Supported ISO 42001 exercise and served as internal auditor.
Rubrik's privacy and compliance team began with the backbone of BD Emerson. BD Emerson supported building out the privacy program, GRC (ISO 27001, SOC 2, CMMC, FedRAMP), and the appsec function.
We needed a partner who could move quickly, without sacrificing precision. BD Emerson brought the expertise, structure, and speed we were looking for. Their team became an extension of ours, embedding themselves across the organization, guiding us step by step, and giving us confidence in areas we hadn’t tackled before. The internal audit they conducted was so detailed that even the external auditors called it out. Achieving ISO 27001 with zero nonconformities says everything you need to know about the quality of the partnership.
