Secure Data Today Means Data Resilience Tomorrow
Confront the threat; contain the breach. According to the 2024 Data Protection Trends Report, 82% of organizations can’t recover quickly enough from a cyber-attack to achieve full productivity. In today’s age, it is critical to be resilient in a world of cyberthreats and be confident in your detection, response, and recovery plan. Ultimately this can help you reduce the impact of cyberattacks on your organization and back up whether data is in the cloud, on prem or both. By extending Zero Trust to data backup and recovery, you will be building an effective strategy for securing your IT infrastructure against ransomware and cybersecurity threats.

Presentation
Keys to the Kill Chain
With the myriad options for addressing the many links in the kill chain, how do you determine which is best suited to protect your business? If you focus heavily on stopping initial infection, a single bypass of your perimeter can be deadly. A strong back up and restore strategy is valid… but should be plan b. If you miss the middle of the kill chain, you can’t stop a ransomware attack from spreading across your network and locking down critical applications and infrastructure. A multi-layer defense strategy that strategically addresses areas of the chain where you are most vulnerable is going to- prevent widespread damage, data loss, and downtime.
Join this session to discuss:
- Methods for addressing your unique attack surface
- The importance of the notoriously under-addressed lateral movement phase that is critical to the success of an attack
- Increasing internal visibility as it relates to threat intel and ransomware attacks
- Understanding modern attack trends – and what this means for your security strategy
