Case Study: Timeless Travel Trailers saves $25,000 and recovers from ransomware with CrashPlan

Timeless Travel Trailers saves $25,000 and recovers 99% of files with CrashPlan

Timeless Travel Trailers, a small custom vehicle fabrication business, faced a significant challenge when a malware attack encrypted an employee's laptop, threatening the loss of critical design files and productivity. With no formal IT staff, producer Marc Zuckerman recognized the need for a robust data backup solution to protect the company's work, leading them to implement CrashPlan's cloud backup service.

By deploying CrashPlan to protect all of their computers with automatic, offsite backup and file versioning, the company was able to quickly recover from the attack. CrashPlan enabled them to restore 99% of their lost data, about 1.5 terabytes, avoiding an estimated $25,000 in ransom payments, IT consulting fees, new hardware, and lost productivity. This solution provided peace of mind and demonstrated the measurable impact of having a reliable data protection strategy in place.
