  • Ransomware reports increased by 14% in 2025, highlighting a growing threat.

  • Emergency Mode enables centralized control for quick recovery during ransomware incidents.

Ransomware attacks continue to rise, with a 14% increase in reports in 2025 according to the FBI. IGEL has introduced Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BC&DR) solutions to help organizations recover from such incidents. The BC&DR feature allows endpoints to boot into IGEL OS, preserving the compromised Windows environment for forensic analysis. Administrators can centrally control the switch to IGEL OS, minimizing user disruption and maintaining access to critical applications. The Emergency Mode function, available since August 2026, enables quick recovery from ransomware events. This solution is particularly relevant as 44% of breaches in 2025 involved ransomware, highlighting the growing need for effective endpoint recovery strategies. Organizations can now manage recovery processes more efficiently, ensuring that operational disruptions are minimized.
