About The Customer
Crowne Plaza Boston is a bustling hotel with a fully booked conference center and a popular in-house sports bar & grille. The hotel is managed by General Manager Frank Vento, who ensures smooth operations and guest satisfaction. The hotel has a strong partnership with TeamLogic IT, a managed services provider known for its robust business continuity strategies.
The Challenge
The Crowne Plaza Boston faced a critical ransomware attack by CryptoLocker, threatening the hotel's day-to-day operations. The malware demanded a hefty ransom for the release of the hotel's critical data. The hotel immediately contacted TeamLogic IT for assistance.
The Solution
TeamLogic IT quickly diagnosed the ransomware issue remotely and dispatched a technician to the hotel within 20 minutes. The hotel had previously installed a Datto SIRIS backup and disaster recovery (BDR) solution on TeamLogic's advice. This allowed the technician to deploy the Datto recovery solution, fully restoring the hotel's computing systems within an hour without paying any ransom.
Operational Impact
  • The hotel experienced zero downtime during the incident.
  • Business presentations in the conference center continued uninterrupted.
  • Guests slept soundly in their hotel rooms.
  • Sports fans enjoyed the playoff action without any disruptions.
  • The hotel avoided spending technical time or resources on paying a ransom.
Quantitative Benefit
  • The hotel avoided paying a hefty ransom demanded by the ransomware attackers.
