RestoreProof

RestoreProof is a web app + lightweight desktop agent that continuously verifies whether your backups are actually restorable. Instead of trusting “backup succeeded” logs, it automatically performs scheduled, isolated restore tests (files, folders, and optional VM snapshots) into a sandbox, then validates integrity with checksums and simple application-level checks (e.g., can a database start, can key directories be read). It produces a plain-English readiness score, time-to-restore estimates, and a weekly report your boss/auditor can understand. It integrates with common backup targets (S3-compatible storage, NAS shares, and popular backup tools via scripts/webhooks) and alerts you when restore tests fail or exceed RTO thresholds. This is not a backup product; it’s a verification layer that reduces the most common failure: discovering your backups are useless after ransomware or hardware loss.
