Emergency migration in 72 hours. From zero protection to active MDR.
The challenge
An Italian premium footwear multinational contacted us in an emergency state: the cloud provider in use for years had degraded infrastructure, non-functional backups (discovered only after a failed restore attempt), corporate endpoints with no EDR protection and performance completely inadequate for management systems. The discovery of backup failure — with critical design, production and customer data potentially at risk — had created an internal crisis. Immediate action was required.
The solution
We activated the emergency migration protocol: complete infrastructure assessment in 4 hours, migration planning in the next 8 hours. We provisioned a new Proxmox cluster on dedicated cloud and started VM-by-VM migration prioritizing critical systems — ERP, design and production databases, communication systems. In parallel, immediate activation of Acronis Advanced Security with MDR for all endpoints: active protection within 6 hours of project start, before migration was even complete. Immutable backups configured and first verified backup completed within 24 hours. Complete migration in 72 hours, with active disaster recovery on secondary site.
The results
Complete migration in 72 hours with no data loss
MDR active on all endpoints within 6 hours of start
First verified and tested backup within 24 hours
ERP performance: +340% vs previous infrastructure
Active DR with RTO < 2 hours — first test passed 7 days after migration
