It’s a matter of time before a cloud provider gets hit by a sophisticated bad actor. Paired with increased natural disasters and an unreliable supply chain, this should alert organizations to look for additional data storage options now. On-prem object storage for backups is a perfect solution to said concerns, says Anthony Cusimano, Director of Technical Marketing at Object First.
Avoid Business Extinction by Investing in Immutability in 2023
In 2022, US financial institutions processed over $1B dollars in ransomware payments. This makes it indisputable that the lack of awareness about ransomware and the flimsiness of the backup and recovery approach in terms of cybersecurity puts companies’ business continuity at grave risk. To address that, Anthony Cusimano, Director for Technical Marketing at Object First, recommends investing in out-of-the-box immutable on-premises backup storage in 2023 without delay.
Cybercrime is evolving and, rightfully, has a market of its own. The threat landscape is moving toward ransom-as-a-service, data exfiltration, and targeting backup storage. Tony Liau, VP Product Marketing at Object First, predicts organizations will step up their data protection investment in 2023 and change their interaction with consumers around these topics.
The CEO of Object First, David Bennett, talks about the prospects of the tech industry in 2023 facing two greatest challenges of 2022, both the Big Quit and the rising tide of cybercrime. Each one has been a struggle this year, but there are ways to deal with those problems in the future.
