# A digital twin in the Cloud to strengthen your cyber resilience

## Nuabee: a cloud-based digital twin focused on cyber resilience

The Nuabee solution acts as a complete, isolated digital replica in the cloud, built around a Configuration Management Database (CMDB) that accurately describes your IT environments. As a Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP), it can be activated immediately or on demand, ensuring optimal business continuity in the event of a major incident or attack.

Hosted in a public cloud, this digital twin inherently benefits from advanced cloud features: rapid scalability, availability of ready-to-use OS images and configurations, automated security tools, proactive monitoring, enhanced encryption, and strict isolation of production environments.

## Extended uses for proactive cyber resilience

Beyond its initial function of ensuring business continuity in the event of a major incident, the Nuabee digital twin paves the way for a proactive cyber risk management strategy:

- **Proactive vulnerability analysis**: carry out regular automated scanning campaigns (networks, systems, applications) and manual or automated intrusion tests to detect, analyze, and anticipate potential vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
- **Realistic simulation of attack scenarios:** test realistic attacks such as ransomware campaigns, targeted intrusions, and denial-of-service attacks to assess your actual resilience and your teams' ability to respond.
- **Security team training and coaching:** leverage this digital environment to train your teams to effectively detect, respond to, and remediate various cyberattack scenarios in a secure and controlled environment.

### Intrinsic limitations of a cloud solution

Although powerful, this approach has certain inherent technical limitations related to the difference in architecture between your original IT environments (often "on-premises") and the cloud environment:

- **Attacks targeting the source hypervisor:** certain specific attacks targeting your local hypervisor (e.g., VMware) cannot be accurately reproduced in the digital twin's cloud environment.
- **Specific hardware attacks:** scenarios related to vulnerabilities that are directly dependent on the original physical hardware (firmware, BIOS, specific hardware controllers) cannot be simulated in the cloud.

### Conclusion: a comprehensive and proactive approach

Malgré ces limites, le recours à une architecture jumelle Cloud telle que Nuabee constitue une étape majeure vers une cyber-résilience accrue. Cette démarche proactive vous permet de maîtriser vos risques cyber avec une efficacité renforcée, tout en assurant une reprise d’activité rapide en cas de crise majeure.
