The problem
Backup jobs report success but restores are never tested. Replication lag grows silently. Failover runbooks are out of date. Dependencies that support a critical capability are partially inventoried, so a restore plan misses the identity provider, the network path, or the certificate store it depends on. When catastrophe strikes, the gap between the plan and reality is discovered too late.How Panaptico approaches it
Panaptico applies continuous verification to every layer of recovery readiness:- Probes actively attempt restore operations, failovers, and sign-in paths on a cadence you define. A probe that fails is a scored gap with an owner. A probe that is missing is itself an alarm. Negative verification confirms that unauthorized paths remain blocked.
- Coverage keeps every expected backup, replica, and dependency accounted for. Unobserved resources are flagged, not silently skipped. The Atlas maps the full dependency chain supporting each business-critical capability, including ghosts nobody inventoried.
- Sequence verifies that recovery processes actually happen in order: backup completes, replication confirms, failover triggers, service restores. Missing steps in the chain are surfaced immediately.
- State and Reconciliation compare live recovery infrastructure against declared targets. A replica that is behind, a backup that expired, or a failover node that is misconfigured becomes a scored gap with full history.
What you get
A continuously updated recovery readiness score for every critical capability. Platform engineers and SREs see which probes are failing and which dependencies are unobserved. Executives see initiative scores for continuity programs. Auditors see scope, coverage, freshness, and inspectable evidence.Related platform capabilities
