Database protection
- Microsoft SQL Server
Private beta
Built by Data Recovery Specialists. Designed to Prevent Data Loss.
MindShield Backup Platform was created by the team behind Mind Merge Data Recovery Services after more than two decades of helping organizations recover from storage failures, ransomware, database corruption and failed backup strategies.

A different perspective on backup
Backup decisions shaped by real recovery work.
Most backup platforms are built around creating backup files. MindShield was developed from the perspective of specialists who have spent years recovering businesses after hardware failures, ransomware attacks, database corruption and unsuccessful recovery attempts.
That experience changes the question from “Did the backup finish?” to “If disaster happens tomorrow, can this business recover?”
Designed by recovery engineers
Recoverability—not simply backup completion—is the principle behind the platform.
Every feature in MindShield is influenced by practical recovery experience rather than theoretical scenarios. We design protection workflows around the questions that matter during a real incident.
Can the backup be restored?Can administrators detect failures early?Can protection be monitored continuously?Can the recovery process be trusted under pressure?
Protection workflow
From agent installation to guided recovery.
A controlled five-step workflow helps administrators bring Microsoft SQL Server workloads into protection without unnecessary operational complexity.
- 01
Install
Deploy the lightweight MindShield Windows Agent to the system that hosts the protected workload.
- 02
Discover
Identify supported Microsoft SQL Server instances and databases through a controlled setup workflow.
- 03
Configure
Select the workload, schedule, retention settings and local storage destination.
- 04
Protect
Run scheduled or manual backups with compression and AES-256 encryption.
- 05
Recover
Use guided recovery planning when a protected database must be restored.
Current private beta capabilities

The private beta is intentionally limited to capabilities that are currently implemented and under controlled validation.
Backup operations
- Scheduled backups
- Manual backups
- Compression
- AES-256 encryption
- Retention policies
- Local storage
Operational monitoring
- Device monitoring
- Agent heartbeat
- Protection status
- Backup activity
Recovery

- Recovery planning
- Restore readiness
Additional workloads, storage providers and recovery capabilities are under active development and will be announced only after production validation.
Executive dashboard
Understand protection health before an incident occurs.
The MindShield dashboard gives authorized teams a centralized view of device availability, backup outcomes, alerts, storage use and recovery readiness. Operational signals are organized to help administrators identify gaps before they become data-loss events.
Customer and organization management
Manage protected environments from a unified workspace.
Organizations, customers, licenses, devices and protection status can be managed from one administrative experience. The platform is being designed to support both direct customer operations and multi-organization service models.
Device management
Monitor activation, connectivity and protection readiness.
A lightweight Windows Agent connects the protected system to the MindShield Cloud API through authenticated HTTPS. Administrators can review device status, heartbeat activity and setup readiness from a centralized dashboard.
Restore Center
A backup is only valuable when recovery is possible.
The Restore Center is designed to organize recovery information, recovery-point readiness and guided recovery planning. It helps administrators approach an incident with a defined process instead of making decisions for the first time during an emergency.
Designed for operational databases
For organizations that depend on Microsoft SQL Server every day.
MindShield is intended for environments where database availability directly affects operations, revenue, service delivery or regulatory responsibility.
