Active Directory Backup and Recovery at Polipol

This case study details the implementation of Active Directory Forest Recovery (ADFR) at Polipol, a furniture manufacturing company. With a workforce of around 8,000 and a complex IT infrastructure, Polipol recognized the critical importance of Active Directory (AD) for business continuity. The company faced challenges in managing backups and recovery processes due to geographic expansion and an increasing number of users and domains. To address these challenges, Polipol partnered with Semperis to implement ADFR, which automates the recovery of AD after cyber incidents. The ADFR solution significantly reduces downtime and minimizes the risk of malware reinfection by restoring AD to a known safe state. The case study outlines the quick implementation process, which involved minimal tasks and resulted in the Stirtz team managing the backup process efficiently. Key benefits include reduced recovery time, enhanced backup efficiency, and improved security measures, ensuring that Polipol can maintain access to its IT resources even in the event of a cyberattack.
