Drone & ransomware readiness — measured in money

A drone incident stops your production. Ransomware stops your revenue.

Are you ready for either?

When the alarm sounds, it is too late to write the plan. We assess how long your business survives and what a day of downtime costs — and build a continuity system that helps you recover faster and return to normal work.

Two threats we know better than anyone

Both stop the business, not just the IT department. Both are survivable — if the decisions are made before day X.

Physical threat

Drone / UAV incident readiness

An airspace incident near your facility means evacuation, site shutdown, supply disruption and insurance questions — even if nothing touches your fence.

  • Facility shutdown & evacuation playbooks, tested with your team
  • Cost of a lost day per facility — calculated from your own data
  • Alternate logistics, suppliers and communication channels
  • Business-interruption evidence your insurer will accept

If your main facility is closed for 72 hours — who sells, who ships, who talks to clients?

Cyber threat

Ransomware & cyber resilience

Encryption is not an IT incident — it is a CEO exam. The three decisions that decide the outcome are taken before the attack, outside the IT department.

  • Isolated, restore-tested backups — budgeted by the CFO, not hoped for
  • First-hours playbook: who shuts the network, who talks to clients
  • Emergency-mode revenue: selling and serving at 30% capacity
  • Team roles and first steps rehearsed in advance — no confusion on day X

Average public-case downtime is about a week. What does a week without systems cost you?

We did not read about these risks.

We lived them.

Our team built and ran business continuity under real, sustained drone and ransomware pressure — in heavy industry, energy, telecom and financial infrastructure, where these scenarios have been operational reality for years.

Led by Evgeny Telenkov — Best Risk Manager of Russia 2020, PhD in industrial risk management. Continuity and risk leadership at Nornickel, Rosneft, beeline, EY; 15+ BCM implementations including the national settlement depository (NSD).

That field experience is now available to GCC companies — turned into metrics, money and working plans.
