Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- Druva guarantees 99.9% service availability under standard subscription terms. Availability is measured monthly, and service credits are issued if SLAs are not met. Critical workloads are continuously monitored, with proactive remediation to maintain uptime. Customers are notified of planned maintenance windows in advance, and high‑availability architecture ensures minimal disruption. SLA terms include response commitments for severity‑1 incidents, with escalation paths to ensure rapid resolution. Service credits are applied automatically if availability falls below the guaranteed threshold.
- Approach to resilience
- Druva is built on AWS’s resilient infrastructure, leveraging multi‑region replication and automated failover. Data is stored redundantly across geographically separate facilities to ensure continuity. The platform uses microservices architecture, enabling isolated recovery of components without impacting the entire system. Continuous monitoring, intrusion detection, and automated scaling protect against performance degradation. Disaster recovery orchestration ensures workloads can be restored quickly in the event of outages. Detailed resilience information is available on request for government buyers requiring deeper assurance.
- Outage reporting
- Druva provides transparent outage reporting through a public status dashboard, API integration, and email alerts. Customers can subscribe to notifications for real‑time updates on service health. Outages are classified by severity, with detailed incident reports shared post‑resolution. The dashboard displays current status, historical uptime, and maintenance schedules. API endpoints allow integration with customer monitoring systems. Email alerts are sent to designated contacts, ensuring buyers remain informed throughout the incident lifecycle.

- What the ISO/IEC 27001 doesn’t cover
-
ISO/IEC 27001 provides assurance that our organisation operates a certified Information Security Management System (ISMS); however, it does not guarantee absolute security or address every security requirement in isolation.
Specifically, ISO/IEC 27001 does not:
Guarantee that security incidents will not occur, as it focuses on risk management rather than eliminating risk.
Prescribe specific technical security controls, tools, or configurations, allowing organisations to select controls based on risk and business context.
Validate the effectiveness of real-time operational security or prevent human error or misconfiguration.
Fully address sector-specific or regulatory requirements such as UK GDPR, NCSC Cloud Security Principles, or public sector data classification requirements.
Define customer responsibilities within shared responsibility models for cloud services.
To address these limitations, we supplement our ISO/IEC 27001-certified ISMS with service-specific security controls, alignment to relevant public-sector guidance, technical security standards, and ongoing operational monitoring and assurance. - ISO 28000:2022 certification

Scope limitation: Our QMS certification applies to the provision of cloud service resale and associated support activities delivered from our UK based operations team. It does not cover the design, development, or operation of the SaaS platforms themselves (e.g., Druva, CommVault, Veeam, Mimecast), as these are owned and managed by third-party vendors.
Non-applicable requirements: ISO 9001 clause 8.3 (Design & Development) is not applicable, as we do not design or develop software or cloud platforms; we act solely as a reseller and provide configuration and support services.
Third-party exclusions: Vendor-managed infrastructure, data centres, and security operations for the SaaS products are outside our certified QMS. These remain under the control of the respective vendors’ management systems.
Geographic exclusions: Our certification covers UK-based operations only; offshore vendor facilities and global support centres are not within scope. - Quality management systems (QMS)
