Beyond the Ransom: Mastering Data Recovery and Organizational Resilience in the Face of Evolving Cyber Threats

4:00 - 5:30pm ET | Virtual

Event Overview

In 2024, cybersecurity leaders face an escalating challenge: not just preventing ransomware attacks, but ensuring rapid, clean recovery when they inevitably occur. Veeam’s 2024 Ransomware Trends Report reveals alarming statistics: 96% of attacks now target backup repositories, with 76% successfully affecting them. More importantly, on average, organizations cannot restore 43% of affected data. These findings underscore the urgent need for a paradigm shift in data protection and cyber resilience.

This in-depth roundtable will explore the crucial gaps between backup strategies and cybersecurity operations, focusing on the alignment needed to withstand the sophisticated nature of modern ransomware threats. Participants will gain insights from real-world use cases and expert perspectives, including Emilee Tellez, Field CTO in Product Strategy for Veeam Software, on how to bolster ransomware resilience, improve backup strategies, and ensure rapid recovery while mitigating both external and internal threats.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Multi-Layered Data Protection: Implement a 3-2-1 backup strategy with immutable storage (used by 85% of organizations) to protect against the 96% of attacks targeting backup repositories.
Bridging Alignment Gaps: Improve IT-security collaboration, addressing the 63% of organizations needing significant improvement and potentially reducing the 43% of unrecoverable data post-attack.
Full Ransomware Impact: Prepare for broader organizational effects beyond the ransom (only 32% of total financial impact), including increased workload and stress.
