What problem does it solve? Restoring data or failing over systems without a disciplined process risks overwriting good state, destroying evidence, or declaring recovery before integrity is proven. This Skill provides structured workflows for backup failures, restores, disaster recovery, and ransomware response so recovery is validated before cutover. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Restore Workflow: A 13-step process covering source/target resolution, authority verification, recovery point selection, isolated restore, integrity validation, and measured RPO/RTO reporting. - Backup Failure Diagnosis: Confirms job scope, retention, and last successful recovery point, then requires a test recovery since a green backup job alone does not prove recoverability. - Disaster Recovery & Ransomware Boundary: Pre-failover readiness checks (replication lag, DNS, split-brain prevention) and coordination with security response before restoring compromised systems. - Use Case: A user accidentally deletes a SharePoint folder and legal hold applies. Use this Skill to verify ownership, select the last known good recovery point, restore to an alternate location, validate permissions, and record actual RPO/RTO. ## Quick Start Help me plan and validate a restore of a deleted folder from last Tuesday's backup without overwriting current production data.
