As the energy and utility sectors increasingly embrace digital transformation, the demand for robust backup and recovery systems has never been higher. Yet, the environmental impact of traditional data protection practices often goes unnoticed. In this session, we explore a sustainable vision for resilient IT infrastructures.

Drawing on real-world deployments and innovations, this talk examines how to blend cyber resilience with environmental responsibility. Topics include:

Eco-friendly recovery strategies using AI, deduplication, and tiered storage

Green cloud-native backup solutions and energy-efficient DRaaS models

Resilience-driven architectures leveraging predictive analytics and real-time replication

Sustainability challenges and mitigation techniques in high-scale recovery

The role of blockchain and quantum-safe encryption in immutable, future-proof data recovery

We’ll also showcase case studies from the utility industry, including how organizations have navigated natural disasters and ransomware attacks through cloud-based DR, offsite replication, and AI-powered proactive restoration. Attendees will gain actionable insights into building cyber-secure and carbon-conscious backup strategies—ensuring business continuity without compromising sustainability goals.

This session is designed for cybersecurity leaders, resilience architects, energy sector IT strategists, and academic researchers focused on the convergence of digital resilience and environmental stewardship.
