The Last Line of Defense Against a Ransomware Attack

Attackers have started increasingly targeting victims' backups to prevent organizations from restoring their data. Veeam's "2023 Ransomware Trends Report" found more than 93% of ransomware attacks specifically targeted backup data. My discussion with Gabe Gambill, VP of Product and Technical Operations at Quorum, revolves around the following questions:

• What vulnerabilities of data backups do ransomware hackers exploit?

• What are the common mistakes and barriers when recovering against a ransomware attack?

• How to successfully recover from a ransomware attack?
