HyperBUNKER vs. Acronis Cyber Protect — OT Recovery
Acronis protects what the network can reach. HyperBUNKER protects what the network cannot.
Acronis Cyber Protect is a capable platform for IT backup and endpoint protection. But its agents, management consoles, and storage targets are all reachable over the network, which means an attacker who holds admin credentials can reach them too. HyperBUNKER is built for OT environments where those assumptions have already failed.
Where OT recovery actually differs
When the engineering workstation, the management console, and the recovery target are all on the same network, compromising one compromises the recovery path too.
| Capability | HyperBUNKER | Acronis Cyber Protect |
|---|---|---|
| Physically disconnected from every network and OT segment | Built in | Not addressed |
| No agent installed on OT or engineering workstations | Built in | Not addressed |
| No remote access path for an attacker to exploit | Built in | Not addressed |
| Stays unreachable when admin credentials are stolen | Built in | Not addressed |
| Restores PLC configs and SCADA project files without vendor credentials | Built in | Conditional |
| Hardware-enforced write-once immutability | Built in | Conditional |
| No cloud dependency for OT recovery | Built in | Conditional |
What HyperBUNKER does
HyperBUNKER has no IP address, no open ports, and no management console on the network. An attacker with full domain admin cannot reach it because there is nothing to reach. PLC project files, HMI images, SCADA historian baselines, and controller configs are stored in four cold-storage generations, powered off until needed.
Built from real recovery failures
HyperBUNKER was built on 25 years of data recovery experience across more than 50,000 real-world cases. The pattern that kept repeating was that recovery failed not because data was gone, but because the recovery infrastructure was compromised alongside the production environment. Acronis Cyber Protect is effective for protecting endpoints under normal operating conditions. HyperBUNKER is designed for the moment those conditions no longer apply.
