Write-Only Spokes. Zero Lateral Risk.

Consolidate multi-site Veeam backups across isolated plants and remote facilities
without site-to-site VPNs, open firewall ports, or ransomware propagation risks.

Air-gap resilience with automated central hub consolidation.

Ransomware-Proof Hub and Spoke Backup for Veeam

Multi-Site Centralization Without VPN Vulnerabilities

Protect distributed industrial facilities from catastrophic data loss. Agilicus 
AnyX enables remote sites to push Veeam backup archives over write-only shares, 
while your central backup server ingests data in read-only mode, completely eliminating
lateral attack vectors.

Outbound-only HTTPS

## PROBLEM / SOLUTION

Organizations managing multiple industrial plants, water utilities, or distributed
substations need to consolidate backups to a central Veeam server. However, traditional
replication methods introduce dangerous lateral attack surfaces. Agilicus AnyX delivers
a resilient, isolated architecture:

### The Operational Challenge

❌ **Ransomware Lateral Traversal:** Site-to-site VPNs create broad network visibility.
If malware infects one facility or the central backup server, it spreads across 
the VPN to corrupt repositories and peer plants.

❌ **Costly On-Site Silos:** Purchasing, maintaining, and licensing dedicated backup
storage appliances at every remote plant creates massive capital expenditure and
administrative overhead.

❌ **NAT and Firewall Complexity:** Remote sites connected via Starlink, cellular
SIMs, or double-NAT lack public IPs, making inbound replication and port forwarding
impossible without fragile tunnels.

### The Customer Outcome

✅ **Write-Only Push Security:** Remote plants mount the central repository as write-
only over outbound HTTPS. Spokes cannot read other sites’ data and cannot pull files
back, stopping malware reflection.

✅ **Read-Only Veeam Ingestion:** The central Veeam Backup Server mounts deposited
data read-only. It processes and archives backups without the ability to modify 
or overwrite pushed immutable files.

✅ **Zero-Footprint Deployment:** Operates entirely over outbound HTTPS, traversing
Starlink, cellular CGNAT, and restrictive firewalls with zero on-site hardware silos
required.

## Why Enterprises Choose Agilicus for Multi-Site Backup

Zero Trust architecture engineered to satisfy industrial reliability requirements
and strict enterprise cybersecurity standards.

### Write-Only Push Isolation

Spokes contribute data to dedicated incoming directories without read permissions,
preventing malicious reverse-injection even if a central storage repository is compromised.

### Zero Lateral Network Exposure

Eliminate complex site-to-site VPN meshes entirely. Branch locations remain completely
invisible to each other, stopping the propagation of ransomware across facilities.

### Air-Gap & Cellular Traversal

Replicate backups reliably over Starlink, cellular LTE/5G, and double-NAT environments
using outbound-only TLS without public IP addresses or firewall port forwarding.

### HOW IT WORKS

![SSH Animated Data Flow](https://www.agilicus.com/www/d6c678de-ssh-data-flow.svg)

### 1

Deploy Connector

Run the lightweight Agilicus connector at each remote spoke facility and the central
Veeam backup hub.

### 2

Configure Write-Only Spokes

Assign remote plant agents write-only deposit paths for local backup dumps over 
outbound HTTPS.

### 3

Mount Read-Only on Veeam Hub

The central Veeam Backup Server mounts the consolidated repository in read-only 
mode for ingestion.

### 4

Automate & Protect

Automate scheduled backups across all remote facilities with complete audit logging
and zero lateral risk.

## Resilient Multi-Site Backups. Absolute Isolation.

“Agilicus AnyX enables us to centralize Veeam backups from dozens of remote plant
facilities into our core datacenter seamlessly, eliminating site-to-site VPNs and
completely removing ransomware lateral traversal risks.”
