Backup & Recovery

Backup and Recovery

Database

• Run encrypted daily backups.
• Retain binary logs for point-in-time recovery.
• Test restores regularly on a non-production database.
• Treat transactions, ledger_entries, payments, withdrawals, wallets, and audit_logs as critical recovery tables.

Files

• Back up .env securely and separately.
• Back up storage/logs for incident review.
• Keep KYC uploads outside the public web root and back them up with encryption.

Disaster Recovery

• Document database credentials rotation.
• Keep provider credentials recoverable through secure secret backup.
• Verify queue worker restart procedures.
• Reconcile provider records after any restore.
