Financial Services The bank that can't go down, no longer can
The Challenge A global bank, with more than 300,000 staff across 50+ countries, operates a Sydney branch delivering critical applications to hundreds of users every day. Trading, customer service, compliance, payments: all of it ran through a single virtual desktop environment at one site. If that site went down (fire, flood, hardware failure, anything) staff would lose access to every business system at once. For a bank, that is not an inconvenience. It is a regulatory event.
There was no disaster recovery. The branch needed one, designed, built, tested, and proven, that could fail over to a second site cleanly, with the speed and reliability a tier-one bank demands.
The Solution Extranet Systems designed and delivered a fully independent disaster recovery site. New high-performance hardware was installed at the secondary location, configured to mirror the production environment in active-standby. Critical systems were replicated in near real-time, so the data at the DR site was always current. The entire environment was then tested under failover conditions, not just configured and left alone, but proven to actually take over when called upon.
When the main site is unavailable, staff log in and keep working. No scramble. No improvisation. The systems that run the bank just keep running.
The Outcome The bank moved from single-site exposure to a fully tested, production-grade disaster recovery capability. It met the resilience standards expected of a global financial institution and gave the Sydney branch confidence that no single point of failure could take the business offline.
"We went from three disconnected tools to one unified system in 12 weeks. The team hasn't looked back — and neither have we."

Extranet gave us a level of integration we didn't think was possible. Night and day difference. Thank you Extranet.
A Plan That Works Under Pressure
Having backups alone is not enough. A complete disaster recovery plan covers hardware, software, data, and connectivity, with defined recovery time and recovery point objectives and regular testing to prove it works.
Tailored to Your Risk
We review your business carefully, identify your specific risks, and build a recovery plan around your operations, your data, and the downtime your business can and cannot afford.
Tested and Validated
We conduct regular disaster recovery drills so you can be confident your plan performs when you need it, not just on paper but in practice under real conditions.
Questions
Everything you need to know about undertaking Disaster Recovery with us
A disaster recovery plan is a documented roadmap for getting your essential systems back online after an unexpected event, whether that is ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion, or a physical disaster. Without one, recovery is slow, costly, and unpredictable. With one, your business has a clear, tested path back to normal operations.
A complete plan covers hardware, software, data, and connectivity. We help you identify what needs to be backed up, select the right backup techniques and storage locations, standardise your software documentation, and ensure restoration is smooth and reliable across every layer of your IT environment.
Recovery Time Objective (RTO) defines how quickly your systems need to be back online after a disruption. Recovery Point Objective (RPO) defines how much data loss your business can tolerate. We build your plan around both targets so you have a clear, measurable standard for recovery performance.
We conduct regular disaster recovery drills and validation testing so your plan performs as designed, not just as written. Testing is built into the process so you have confidence before you ever need to rely on it for real.
Your recovery plan should evolve as your business, systems, and risks change. We provide ongoing support to keep your plan current, your backups validated, and your team prepared as your IT environment and operational requirements develop over time.
What We Build
From internal tools to customer-facing platforms — we build web applications across every use case.
A process built around you, not the other way around
We don't disappear after kickoff and resurface six months later with a finished product. Every stage is collaborative, transparent, and designed to keep you in control.
Discovery & scoping
We start with a deep-dive session — no PowerPoints, just an honest conversation about your business, your users, and the problem you're trying to solve. We document everything and come back with a clear scope, timeline, and fixed-price proposal.
Design & architecture
Before a line of code is written, you'll see exactly what you're getting. We produce wireframes, user flow diagrams, and a technical architecture document. You review, give feedback, and we refine until it's right.
Agile build sprints
We build in two-week sprints and demo working software to you at the end of each one. You give feedback in real time — nothing is locked in, nothing is a surprise. Our developers are in your time zone and reachable when you need them.
Testing & launch
We run comprehensive QA — functional testing, load testing, security reviews, and user acceptance testing with your team. Nothing goes live until you're confident. We handle deployment, DNS, and go-live support so launch day is calm.
Ongoing support & growth
We don't disappear after go-live. Most clients stay with us on a support retainer — we handle bugs, monitor performance, and run continuous improvement sprints as your business grows. Think of us as your long-term technology partner, not a one-off vendor.
Built to recover before the damage is done.
We don't build recovery plans that look good on paper and fail in a crisis. Every plan we develop is tested, validated, and built for real-world disasters.
