X = the business you cannot afford to lose.
Kyxis Technologies designs and implements ISO 22301-aligned disaster recovery and business continuity frameworks that keep your organisation operational when it matters most — protecting critical systems, data, and services from outages, ransomware, and catastrophic failure. We don't just plan for the worst; we engineer your recovery.
DR & BCP Frameworks Built to
International Standards
Business Impact Analysis
A Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is the foundation of any effective continuity plan. We work with your teams to identify critical business functions, map dependencies, and quantify the operational and financial impact of disruptions at varying durations.
Our BIA methodology is aligned to ISO 22301 and produces the Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption (MTPD), Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs), and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) that drive the rest of your DR strategy.
Disaster Recovery Planning
We develop comprehensive Disaster Recovery Plans (DRPs) that define exactly how your ICT systems will be restored following a disruptive event — covering infrastructure, data, applications, and communications in a structured, tested runbook.
Our DRPs are aligned to ISO 27031 (ICT Readiness for Business Continuity) and include roles and responsibilities, escalation procedures, system recovery sequences, and vendor contact matrices to ensure nothing is left to chance under pressure.
Backup & Replication
We design and implement enterprise backup architectures using incremental, differential, and continuous data protection strategies — ensuring your RPOs are achievable and your backup data is isolated from the threats that affect your primary environment.
Our solutions include off-site and cloud-based replication to secondary sites, immutable backup storage resistant to ransomware encryption, and automated restore testing to confirm your backups are actually recoverable when needed.
Testing & ISO 22301 Certification
An untested DR plan is not a DR plan. We conduct structured failover exercises, tabletop simulations, and full live failover tests that validate your RTOs against real infrastructure — identifying gaps before a real incident does.
For organisations seeking formal recognition, we support ISO 22301 BCMS certification — guiding you through gap analysis, policy development, evidence collection, and the internal audit cycle required for certification readiness.
Resilience Built Around Your Recovery Objectives
Protect Your Organisation Against Ransomware and Unplanned Outages
Immutable Backup & Ransomware Recovery
We deploy air-gapped and immutable backup repositories that ransomware cannot encrypt, giving you a guaranteed recovery path without paying a ransom — even in a worst-case scenario.
Failover That Actually Works When You Need It Most
Verified Failover & Restore Testing
We run structured restore and failover tests on a defined schedule, producing documented evidence that your RTO and RPO targets are achievable — not just theoretical figures in a plan.
Keeping Your Business Operational With Robust Continuity Procedures
Business Continuity Planning
We develop Business Continuity Plans (BCPs) that extend beyond ICT — covering staff, facilities, communication, and supply chain — so your organisation can maintain essential functions through any disruption.
Cloud-Based DR Delivering Faster Recovery at Lower Cost
Cloud DR & DRaaS
We implement Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) solutions that replicate workloads to cloud infrastructure, enabling near-instant failover with dramatically lower capital cost than traditional secondary data centre approaches.
DR & BCP Solutions Across Every Sector
Government & Public Sector
ISO 22301-aligned BCMS implementations and DR planning for national and provincial government entities managing citizen-critical services and sensitive public data.
Healthcare
Continuity planning for hospitals and health facilities where system downtime directly affects patient care — covering clinical systems, PACS, and EHR with aggressive RTO targets.
Finance & Banking
High-availability DR architectures and BCP documentation aligned to SARB requirements and the financial sector's stringent recovery and resilience obligations.
Critical Infrastructure
OT/IT continuity planning for energy, water, and telecommunications operators where service disruption carries national consequence and regulatory scrutiny.
