# Latticra Backup, Recovery, and Cyber Resilience Baseline

Status: backup, recovery, and cyber resilience baseline
Source refresh date: 2026-05-26
Scope: backup scope, offline backup posture, restore testing, recovery prioritization, RTO/RPO planning, golden-image and infrastructure-as-code recovery evidence, recovery isolation, rollback, resilience engineering, recovery communications, post-incident lessons learned, and recovery non-claims before hosted services, mutating update lanes, production installers, production runtime, or recovery-service claims.

This baseline records backup, recovery, and resilience requirements only. It does not implement backup creation, backup storage, restore execution, rollback execution, disaster recovery, recovery orchestration, failover, continuity operations, golden-image creation, infrastructure-as-code deployment, ransomware recovery, compliance, or runtime authority.

## Required Recovery Promotion Gate

No hosted service, production runtime, production installer, production package, mutating update lane, recovery path, rollback path, failover path, ransomware recovery feature, disaster-recovery claim, continuity claim, or production recoverability claim may be promoted until this gate is complete:
