Assured Data Protection Launches CleanRoom SCAN to Strengthen Cyber Recovery

New managed service verifies clean recovery points to help organizations recover with confidence

HERNDON, Va. and LEEDS, United Kingdom, Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Assured Data Protection (Assured), the global managed services provider specializing in data protection, disaster recovery and cyber resilience, today announced CleanRoom SCAN, a new managed service designed to strengthen cyber recovery by independently scanning isolated backup data using multiple leading security engines to identify hidden threats before restoration. The service helps organizations identify malware and other indicators of compromise earlier, reducing the risk of reinfecting production environments during recovery.

CleanRoom SCAN lets Assured customers scan isolated backup copies away from production environments, helping detect malware or indicators of compromise that may have bypassed existing security tools. By applying multiple independent security engines to the same backup data, the service provides broader threat detection than organizations typically achieve with a single endpoint security platform. It is designed to rapidly identify the most recent clean point from which an organization can safely restore its systems. Until now, this had been one of the most time-consuming challenges, with cyber recovery times varying from days to weeks.

Neutralizing the ransomware threat
Most enterprise organizations already use a range of endpoint, firewall, threat detection and security operations tools. However, no single security control can guarantee full protection against today's ransomware, malware and zero-day threats. Every security engine relies on its own threat intelligence, detection techniques and update cycles, meaning threats missed by one platform may be detected by another. CleanRoom SCAN addresses this challenge by scanning isolated backup data using multiple leading security engines, significantly increasing the likelihood of identifying malicious files before recovery. When an attack occurs, organizations often lose critical time rolling back through multiple recovery points, only to discover that malware or compromised data is still present.

CleanRoom SCAN addresses this issue by scanning data from backups in an isolated environment, without placing additional load on production systems. Initially, this groundbreaking managed service, developed by Assured, is available for Rubrik-protected environments running VMware, giving customers an independent verification of replicated backup data held within Assured's secure infrastructure. Customers receive regular verification of clean recovery points, providing greater confidence that they can restore from a known-good position if an incident occurs.

"Effective cyber resilience and recovery isn't just about having backups. It's about knowing which backups are safe to use," said Nik Grove, Field CTO, Assured Data Protection.

"No single security tool catches every threat. CleanRoom SCAN complements existing security investments by verifying isolated backup data with multiple leading security engines, giving customers far greater confidence that they're recovering from a genuinely clean recovery point."

Built for mission-critical operations
CleanRoom SCAN is ideally suited to the needs of mid-market and enterprise organizations where downtime can create significant operational, financial and reputational impact. The service is particularly relevant for organizations in sectors such as financial services, insurance, public sector, gaming, transport, healthcare and other industries where business continuity is critical.

If CleanRoom SCAN identifies malware or indicators of compromise that have been missed by an organization's existing security controls, Assured proactively alerts the customer, enabling investigation and remediation before recovery begins.

"During a ransomware event, the longest and most expensive part of recovery is often finding the point at which the environment was last clean," said Alvaro Gonzalez, Senior Vice President of Product and Go-to-Market, Assured Data Protection. "CleanRoom SCAN is designed to shorten that process. It gives organizations a more defensible recovery position and helps security and IT leaders demonstrate that they have taken additional steps to protect the business."

Continuing to innovate in cyber recovery
The launch reflects Assured's continued focus on managed cyber resilience and clean recovery. It builds on the company's existing managed data protection, disaster recovery and cyber recovery services, including support for Rubrik, Nutanix, Zerto and other strategic technologies.

CleanRoom SCAN is available now. Future development is expected to expand support across additional environments and use cases.
