Recovery readiness starts with securing the code, data, and deployment components your software depends on. With the right assets protected, you can quickly return to business as usual.
Recovery means being able to restore your systems after a disruption occurs. It ensures you can recreate environments, resume functionality, and continue operations when access is lost. Recovery gives you a defined path back to working software.
Why you need to be ready for recovery
76%
Of organizations are not prepared to recover from major incidences.
$300K/hr
Average cost of downtime for mid-size and large enterprises.
66%
Of outages have been linked to third-party or service-provider failures.
€10M
Maximum fines under NIS2 for failures affecting essential service continuity.
Without secured assets, recovery is impossible. You can't recover what you haven't protected.
How recovery works
Recovery follows a structured process that ensures you have the materials, access, and clarity required to restore your software when systems become unavailable.
Step 1: Store
Protect the essential components required to rebuild your software when access is lost.
Complete codebase and technical documentation
Database structures, data exports, and configurations
Deployment scripts, environment details, and credentials
AI models, model deployments, workflows, agents, and prompts
Step 2: Release
Retrieve your recovery materials quickly and securely when a disruption triggers set release conditions.
Contract-defined events initiate the release
Validation and preparation handled immediately
Recovery assets delivered through a secure process
Step 3: Deploy
Restore functionality using the verified assets prepared for recovery.
Recreate infrastructure and configurations
Follow deployment guidance to restore services
Validate and confirm system readiness
With this process, you have peace of mind that your software is secured, and the evidence to back it up.
Recovery roles and responsibilities
Recovery only succeeds when each party maintains their part of the process. These responsibilities keep assets complete, current, and ready for use.
Depositor
Agrees on recovery requirements with the beneficiary
Provides source code, documentation, and technical components
Keeps deposits updated with new releases
Supplies build, configuration, and deployment details
Supports verification activities
Beneficiary
Confirms recovery requirements jointly with the depositor
Reviews verification results and obtains audit-ready documentation
Ensures recovery aligns with internal continuity plans
Initiates release during a qualifying disruption
Manages redeployment or migration using released materials
Codekeeper
Establishes the legal framework that governs recovery and release
Securely stores, encrypts, and tracks all assets
Verifies completeness and buildability
Processes release requests 24/7
Provides optional technical support during recovery
Issues Software Resilience Certificates as compliance proof
Recovery support when you need it
Our role is to ensure that the technical materials required for recovery are protected, verified, and available when needed.
Complete, current asset protection
We keep your source code, documentation, workflows, and models current through automated deposits so you can rebuild your software when needed.
Verified readiness for real recovery
Our team runs build tests and completeness checks to verify your assets will rebuild successfully. We also supply you with formal certification to prove this.
24/7 release and support
During a recovery event, delays increase downtime. We process release conditions at any time and deliver assets through a secure, audited workflow. When disaster strikes, Assured Recovery experts can also guide you through restoring your software.
Simplified escrow management
Your Codekeeper dashboard provides visibility into version status, deposit history, and verification results. Everything required for recovery is organized and ready to be used when needed.
Let’s keep your software recoverable
Our escrow solutions provide the foundation for recovery, ensuring critical software components are preserved and ready to support restoration.
Software Escrow
Protection scope: On-premises software
Source code
Gives you the core logic needed to rebuild, maintain, or extend the application independently.
Data
Preserves essential databases and exports so the restored system functions with complete business information.
Documentation
Provides the technical clarity needed to configure, deploy, and troubleshoot the software during recovery.
Complete software resilience needs both recovery and continuity
Recovery ensures you can rebuild software after failure. Continuity escrow ensures all dependent environments, credentials, and subscriptions remain active during that process.
