CISO Lessons Learned: Ransomware-Proofing Storage & Backups

With a significant increase in ransomware attacks on storage and backup systems, we interviewed 4 CISOs to get their perspectives of the new threats to storage & data protection systems, how adversaries abuse them, and steps other CISOs can take to strengthen their security posture.

In this ‘voice of the CISO’ guide, we cover CISO lessons on the impact of ransomware attacks on organizations’ storage & backup systems, the risks associated in the event of an attack, and provide several lessons learned on how being proactive with the security of storage and backup systems versus reactive can further close security gaps.
