Hi, I have the opportunity to participate in a live webcast in French for the first “Secure IT Live” (online event) between Veeam Software, ExaGrid, Quantum and Monaco Digital – Avangarde (Secure IT Live #1 – Protect your Backup). Topic: Building a backup architecture Secure by design (tips), and protecting against ransomware attacks. Join our online discussion via Cisco Webex (“Register” button) with the Veeam, ExaGrid and Quantum, taking place on Tuesday, March 9 at 9:00 AM. Duration: 1 hour. Speakers: Christopher Glémot (Data Management & Security Team Lead @ Monaco Digital – Veeam Vanguard), Stéphane Cardot (Director Presales EMEA @ Quantum), and Christophe Marie (Senior System Engineer @ ExaGrid). Register via Webex, join us directly via this link and learn how Veeam, ExaGrid and Quantum can can help you to protect your backup against Ransomware.
Regular backups of all data, including data on file servers, infrastructure, and critical business applications should be performed. Keep in mind that these backups can also be affected by ransomware. Indeed, more and more cybercriminals seek to attack backups to limit the possibilities for the victim to find his data and thus maximize the chances that he pays the ransom. These backups, at least for the most critical, must be disconnected from the Information System to prevent their encryption, like other files. The use of “cold storage” solutions, such as external hard drives or magnetic Tapes, can protect backups from infection of systems and preserve critical data upon recovery. In this regard, it is important to note that “backup-less” architectures (snapshots) effectively protect against the destruction of isolated data, when it is due to a hardware failure. However, they do not protect against targeted ransomware attacks because the attackers work to encrypt data on all servers.
