Recover in hours, not weeks. With MVC from OpenSight, you can immediately restart minimal, clean business operations: identity, communication, core applications, and data.
Most organizations are prepared for the loss of data, but not for the loss of their ability to recover. Modern attacks target not only systems, but also backups, identity, and recovery paths. As a result, everything grinds to a halt at once.
OpenSight’s Minimum Viable Company (MVC) approach helps organizations get back up and running within hours instead of weeks. Not with temporary workarounds, but with a controlled restart of the minimum essential business functions: identity, communication, core applications, and critical data. The goal is clear: to keep functioning in any scenario, based on a clean, demonstrably secure copy of what is essential.
OpenSight handles the complete execution, guidance, and verification.
A Minimum Viable Company is the smallest version of your organization that can be cleanly restarted and can carry out all critical business processes, even when everything around you has been compromised. Whereas traditional disaster recovery (DR) focuses on infrastructure, MVC focuses on business continuity: the people, systems, and data that together form the minimum level of functionality an organization needs to keep running. The concept emerged from real-world experience with large-scale ransomware incidents. Many companies discovered that their recovery plan was based on assumptions: that backups were clean, that identity was still functioning, that networks were available. Often, the opposite turned out to be true.
A Minimum Viable Company approach changes that by defining exactly, in advance:
Its strength lies in the combination of technology, process discipline, and business prioritization. Only when these three come together can you guarantee that recovery truly works. Demonstrably and tested. OpenSight helps customers with exactly this process: defining, prioritizing, and translating it into an actionable recovery plan.
The reality is that no company is fully secure anymore. Cyberattacks are faster, smarter, and more targeted than ever. In studies by ESG and Deloitte, security and IT leaders indicated that their biggest concern is no longer data loss, but operational downtime; the inability to return to a secure state quickly, cleanly, and in a controlled manner.
ESG’s Economic Validation Study shows that organizations with an MVC approach:
This translates directly into lower costs, lower risks, and stronger demonstrability to the board and insurers.
OpenSight translates the international MVC methodology into a concrete five-step model tailored to organizations, with technology and processes that can be applied immediately. Every step is led, tested, and managed by OpenSight.
Through a Risk Assessment, we map business processes to applications, infrastructure, and dependencies to determine which components are essential to your organization’s continuity. OpenSight carries out this assessment in full and delivers a clear MVC profile.
We design a Recovery Architecture that enables clean, isolated, and automated recovery based on Zero Trust principles, with immutable and air-gapped copies as the foundation. OpenSight develops this architecture, tailored to your environment and risks.
In an automated cleanroom environment, we regularly test and validate that recovery points are clean, dependencies are correct, and business processes continue to function, with automated reporting for audits. OpenSight manages the cleanroom, performs the tests, and delivers audit-ready reports.
In the event of an incident, identity is restored first, followed by critical systems and data, so your Minimum Viable Company is operational within hours through Cleanroom Recovery and Cloud Rewind. During an incident, OpenSight is actually at the controls and guides the entire recovery process.
After every test or recovery action, we optimize processes and tooling, structurally integrating ‘Rebuild’ as the seventh security function to ensure lasting cyber resilience. OpenSight continuously monitors, evaluates, and improves this together with your team.
Gain more control and insight into cyber risks
OpenSight combines the technical depth of a security specialist with the strategic vision of a CISO partner. As an official Commvault partner, we implement the proven technologies behind Cleanroom Recovery, Cloud Rewind, and Recovery-as-Code, but we do so entirely within the context of your organization. We don’t just make sure the technology works; we make sure your board understands why it works and that you can demonstrate it. Minimum Viable Company is not a product but a philosophy: knowing what truly matters and ensuring it can always be restored. OpenSight makes that philosophy practical and actionable and provides ongoing support to help you maintain it.

Disaster recovery is gericht op fysieke of technische uitval (zoals brand of hardwarefout). Cyber recovery gaat ervan uit dat de omgeving zelf onveilig is. Daarom herstel je eerst in een cleanroom en gebruik je alleen gevalideerde, schone herstelpunten. OpenSight faciliteert deze cleanroom volledig.
Minstens vier keer per jaar. Organisaties die Cleanroom Recovery gebruiken, voeren tests tot 30x vaker uit doordat de voorbereidingstijd minimaal is. OpenSight plant en begeleidt deze tests.
De aanpak maakt elke test en herstelactie meetbaar. Dat biedt bewijs richting toezichthouders en verzekeraars, en verlaagt de kans op sancties of hogere premies. OpenSight levert auditklare rapportages aan.
Ja. Cloud Rewind ondersteunt herstel tussen verschillende regio’s, accounts en providers. On-prem en cloud kunnen gecombineerd worden binnen één MVC-plan. OpenSight ontwerpt en beheert beide scenario’s.
Dat hangt af van de omvang van je infrastructuur en het aantal kritieke processen. De eerste stap is altijd een Risk Assessment om scope en prioriteiten vast te stellen. Deze assessment wordt uitgevoerd door OpenSight en je krijgt een duidelijk Minimum Viable Company profiel voor jouw organisatie.
