Software Recoverability is the ability to independently rebuild, deploy, and run critical vendor software when the original vendor is unavailable. Castler turns that ability into a repeatable process and a signed Proof of Recovery. Learn more →
Traditional escrow primarily stores source code and documentation under a legal agreement. Castler goes further: it maps dependencies, rebuilds the release, deploys it, replicates the declared architecture, and has a named engineer sign the result. Learn more →
A Proof of Recovery is a signed, numbered artefact showing that a specific software release was independently rebuilt, re-deployed, and verified. It is evidence your board, regulator, auditor, insurer, or customer can examine. Learn more →
Castler’s model is designed around verification per release, so the evidence changes as the software changes instead of becoming stale between annual exercises. Learn more →
No. Initial access, source materials, dependencies, and technical documentation must be established correctly, but the verification itself is designed to prove recovery without relying on the vendor being available. Learn more →
Castler is designed to complete verification in hours rather than the multi-week cycles associated with traditional manual exercises. The exact cycle depends on the application and its dependencies. Learn more →
The signed record is backed by the build outcome, deployment procedure, architecture replication, test results, release details, and the named engineer’s seal. Learn more →
That is the platform’s design goal. Agentic verification turns a bespoke exercise for a few vendors into a repeatable operating model for every critical application in the Software Estate. Learn more →
The new release can be captured and re-verified so the Proof of Recovery stays aligned with the software that is actually in use. Learn more →
Verification can run in the selected cloud and region, with role-based access and an auditable record of the recovery workflow. Learn more →
Castler maps build, deployment, replication, testing, and signed recovery evidence to the operational-resilience themes in frameworks such as DORA, PRA SS2/21, APRA CPS 230, MAS TRM, RBI, SEBI, and IRDAI. These mappings are orientation, not legal advice. Learn more →
Verification can run in the cloud and region selected for the deployment. Castler’s trust-centre materials describe regional hosting, role-based access, encryption, and immutable audit trails. Learn more →
Castler’s site references ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, and PCI DSS. The Trust Center is the source for the current security and compliance package. Learn more →
No. Castler maps its evidence to relevant regulatory themes, but those summaries are for orientation only and do not replace official texts or professional legal and compliance advice. Learn more →
