Ctrl +Z is the home of the Assurestor blog.
Here we step back from the noise and take a clear, practical look at backup, resilience and recovery. This is where we share lessons from the field, explore changes across the data protection landscape, and challenge assumptions that no longer hold up.
Some posts will go deep into technical detail. Others will focus on strategy, risk and real‑world decision making. All of them are grounded in the belief that resilience should be understandable, testable and built for recovery, not just backup.
If you care about being able to undo the impact of failure, not just count copies of data, you are in the right place.
