The evolution of backup systems moving from tapes to disks exposed backups to cyber threats, including ransomware, according to Mr. Backup, our guest this week.
The job of making backups is usually given to the most junior IT staff because not many want to do the job. As a result, the function and importance of backups are often not given enough attention or totally overlooked. That can no longer be the case as backups are increasingly exposed to cyber threats, and have become your last line of defense against ransomware.
Tune in to this episode of Ask A CISO to hear:
π The evolution of backups and the implications
π Why it's important to secure your backups, now more than ever
π How you can best do that
π What the killer app of the cloud is, according to our guest
π Whether services like Office 365 should be backed up
