Cyber Security Becomes Core Backup Target Feature Enterprises have historically measured backup targets based on how well they minimally deliver on the following three features: • Backup throughput speeds. • Data reduction. • Economical storage. Ransomware threats and attacks have forced enterprises to add at least one more core feature to this list: cyber security. Enterprises and managed service and technology providers now report that many ransomware strains routinely target their backup infrastructures. Some ransomware strains even start their attacks by seeking to compromise or disable backup targets. They do so in one or more of the following ways: • Compromise or obtain administrative logins to these systems. • Delete backups residing on them. • Encrypt backups residing on them. • Exfiltrate, or copy, backups from the system to the hacker’s site.
