Backup File Recovery

A backup that won't restore is not necessarily a backup with no data. AS analyses backup files and repositories directly to extract recoverable content. Full backup and disaster recovery services are covered under Disaster Recovery.

AS VBK Recovery Studio — Recover VMs, disks and files from damaged, incomplete and ransomware-hit Veeam backups (.vbk / .vib).

When you need this

  • Restore fails with a corruption or checksum error
  • Backup chain broken by a missing or damaged increment
  • Backup repository partially encrypted by ransomware
  • Backup catalog lost after software or server reinstall
  • Backup media (tape, disk, NAS) failed

What we do

Backup format analysis

Backup containers are parsed directly to locate recoverable files, disks and databases.

Chain reconstruction

Incremental chains are reassembled around damaged links where enough data survives.

Media recovery

Failed backup media is imaged and recovered like any other storage.

Large backup file after a partial-encryption ransomware variant (illustrative example):

File header (first blocks)ENCRYPTED← targeted first
Blocks 1 – 4,000intact← often untouched
Block 4,001ENCRYPTED← every Nth block
Blocks 4,002 – 8,000intact← recoverable
Block 8,001ENCRYPTED← every Nth block
Blocks 8,002 – 50,000intact← recoverable

Example outcome after block-level assessment:

✓ 49,997 of 50,000 blocks readable

Actual recoverable percentage depends on the variant and file — established during assessment, not assumed in advance.

Backup containers are large files too — a repository that's only partially encrypted by ransomware can still yield recoverable virtual disks, databases and files from the blocks that weren't touched.

How to recover a corrupted Veeam VBK file with the free edition (2.5 minutes)

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Consultation and scope

    We establish what failed, what has been tried, and which data matters most. This shapes a targeted plan rather than a generic one.

  2. Step 2

    Secure imaging and diagnosis

    Where possible the source media is imaged before any work, so the original is never altered. Diagnosis then determines the safest recovery method.

  3. Step 3

    Recovery

    Data is extracted from the image or source using methods matched to the failure — logical, structural or hardware-level as required.

  4. Step 4

    Verification

    Recovered data is checked for integrity and completeness, and a file list is shared so you can confirm what matters is there.

  5. Step 5

    Secure delivery

    Verified data is returned through an agreed secure method, with guidance on validation before it goes back into production.

What affects the outcome

We have solved 656+ cases like these. Every case is assessed on its own condition, and we tell you exactly what is recoverable after a free assessment, before you pay anything.

  • Physical condition of the media and the extent of any damage
  • Whether the media has been written to, reformatted or re-initialised since the failure
  • Encryption, corruption or partial overwriting of the data
  • Availability of source data such as images, backups, logs or transaction records
  • Attempts made before assessment (rebuilds, repair tools, repeated reboots)

Frequently asked questions

Which backup formats do you work with?

Common enterprise and SMB formats. Tell us the product and version in your enquiry and we'll confirm feasibility during assessment.

Can a damaged or corrupted backup be recovered?

Often. Damaged backup recovery and corrupted backup recovery read the backup file directly and extract whatever data blocks are still intact, instead of using the backup program's restore, which stops at the first error. Encrypted backup recovery after ransomware works the same way, on the parts the ransomware did not encrypt.

Do you handle enterprise and server backup recovery?

Yes. Enterprise backup recovery covers large Veeam, Acronis and database backup sets, and server backup recovery covers the backups of individual servers. We provide backup recovery services in India and remotely to clients abroad.
