Ransomware Recovery and Cloud Resilience (AWS)

The Challenge
A cross-border logistics company operating trucking routes between Mexico and the U.S. was hit by a severe ransomware attack. Critical files were encrypted, core systems went down, and day-to-day operations stalled—disrupting supply chains and putting customer relationships at risk.
The Solution
We stabilized operations first, then rebuilt for long-term resilience—moving from emergency recovery to a secure cloud foundation.
Rapid incident mobilization to assess and isolate impacted systems, as well as execute a recovery plan.
Ad hoc recovery infrastructure by standing up a temporary data center inside a warehouse to restore essential services despite warehouse-centric constraints.
Cloud resilience strategy using AWS to harden the environment against repeat attacks and reduce dependence on fragile on-prem patterns.
Trust-building and enablement through hands-on education with engineering and leadership—addressing cloud concerns with transparent communication and measurable progress.
Phased AWS migration roadmap built from a full infrastructure assessment and collaborative planning sessions to minimize disruption while moving critical workloads first.
Training + implementation support covering provisioning, security configuration, and performance optimization—so the team could operate the AWS environment independently.
The Impact
The company restored business continuity quickly—and emerged with a more secure, scalable operating model built for the realities of modern threats.
Business continuity restored with critical workloads successfully transitioned to AWS for higher resilience and availability.
Stronger ransomware defenses through cloud-native services and security best practices designed to reduce repeat exposure.
Greater agility to respond to changing market conditions and scale operations without rebuilding infrastructure.
Improved operational efficiency by streamlining processes and reducing overhead tied to legacy infrastructure.
