Recovery scenarios for identity teams

See how Butterfly Security turns hours of manual recovery into minutes of guided restore across Okta, Okta Workflows, and Auth0.

Disaster Recovery

Recover from accidental deletions and misconfigurations

The Problem:

A group with 500 members gets deleted or a critical policy change breaks sign-in. Without backups, recovery means hours of manual recreation.

The Solution:

With Butterfly Security, restore the prior state in minutes. The dry-run preview shows exactly what will be restored before any changes are made.

Compliance Audits

Answer auditor questions with comprehensive change history

The Problem:

"What changed in the last 90 days?" Auditors need to see configuration history, policy changes, and who made them. Without backups, this information is scattered or lost.

The Solution:

Daily backups provide complete change history. Use the diff tool to show exactly what changed, when, and compare any two points in time. Export reports for SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.

Sandbox Synchronization

Keep dev/test environments in sync with production

The Problem:

Your developers need a test environment that mirrors production. Manually recreating configuration is tedious and error-prone. Environments drift apart over time.

The Solution:

Export your production backup and understand the differences with your test environment. Plan synchronization with our comparison tools before making changes.

Security Incident Response

Identify and remediate unauthorized changes

The Problem:

A compromised admin account creates rogue applications and modifies policies. You need to identify every change they made and restore the previous state.

The Solution:

Drift detection alerts you to unexpected changes. Compare current state to any backup to identify all modifications and restore clean configuration with confidence.

Okta Workflows Recovery

Recover deleted or broken automation workflows

The Problem:

Someone accidentally deletes a critical Okta Workflows folder. Automation without backup or version history is hard to reconstruct.

The Solution:

Butterfly Security captures complete Workflows state - flows, folders, tables, and connectors. Restore your automation exactly as it was.

Infrastructure as Code

Version control your identity configuration

The Problem:

Your team wants to manage identity infrastructure like code - version controlled, reviewed, and deployed through CI/CD. But converting existing config to Terraform is a massive undertaking.

The Solution:

Export your backup as Terraform HCL. Push to Git for version control. Integrate with your existing IaC workflows.

Configuration Drift Review

Spot changes before they become outages

The Problem:

A policy, app setting, or workflow changes quietly during the workday and nobody notices until users start failing login or access is missing.

The Solution:

Butterfly compares snapshots, highlights drift, and shows the exact restore plan before anything is applied.

Identity Disaster Preparedness

An admin accidentally deletes a critical group affecting 200 users

The Problem:

Someone deletes the 'Engineering' group that controls access to 15 applications and 200 users. Without knowing the blast radius ahead of time, recovery is chaotic and takes hours.

The Solution:

IAM Chaos Engineering lets you simulate disasters before they happen. Run a 'Group Deletion' simulation to see the exact blast radius, which users lose access, which apps break, and what cascade effects propagate.

Workflow Recovery

A team lead accidentally deletes a critical Okta Workflows flow

The Problem:

Your key automation gets deleted or misconfigured. Orders stop flowing, reporting breaks, and nobody remembers the exact setup.

The Solution:

Butterfly backs up every flow, folder, table, connection, and configuration across Okta Workflows. When an automation breaks, restore the exact state in minutes instead of days.
