Don't Pay The Ransom!

Ransomware attacks strike every 11 seconds.
No matter how thick your firewalls are, the bad guys are still getting through. And when ransomware strikes, you either pay the ransom or attempt to recover. Some organizations pay the ransom because they trust in their insurance. But most organizations want to recover so they don’t let the bad guys win.

A Payout isn't the only way out. 
Hackers know that if they can exploit your backups, you’ll have no choice but to pay the ransom. If your backups survive, you’ll need to determine what to recover and how long it’s going to take. If you can’t sufficiently answer those questions, you’re back to paying the ransom. What makes matters worse is that paying the ransom isn’t a guarantee. Even when you get a decryption key, the recovery process can take days or weeks. And once it’s decrypted, you also may find that the hackers didn’t give you everything. All the while, your critical apps are down and your bottom line is suffering. Recovering from a clean backup is really the only way to beat the hackers. Data managed by Rubrik is truly immutable and can’t be encrypted after the fact. Once ingested, no external or internal operation can modify the data. Therefore, your data is immune to ransomware. Since data can’t be overwritten, even infected data later ingested by Rubrik can’t infect existing files or folders.

In this session we'll discuss; 
Analyze backup metadata for unusual behavior.
Quickly identify what data was encrypted and where it lives.
Locate personally identifiable information (PII) that may have been exposed to a data exfiltration attack.
Automatically protect new workloads and lock retention to prohibit backup data from being deleted.
