Fortifying Your Business: A Comprehensive Guide to Cyber Resilience and Recovery

The pace of change in the security landscape is swift, with cyber-attacks becoming increasingly sophisticated and intricate. Simultaneously, businesses globally are embracing digital workflows and relying on cloud platforms for their day-to-day operations.

While these tools offer convenience in data storage and customer interaction, they also expose businesses to heightened cybercrime risks. In 2022, a startling one in three businesses encountered data loss through Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms.

Now, more than ever, businesses must fortify their cyber resilience by adopting a multi-layered security approach that encompasses prevention, protection, and recovery measures. When faced with a breach or disaster, it's imperative for every business to have systems in place to minimize losses and swiftly resume operations.

The Importance of Data Restoration and Recovery Preparedness

While much emphasis is placed on data security and preventing cyber-attacks, a holistic approach to cyber resilience must also encompass business continuity and recovery. Any interruption in business operations jeopardizes customers, reputation, digital infrastructure, and the overall business model.

Various factors, beyond cyber-attacks, can lead to disruptions, business downtime, and vulnerability of data and devices. Apart from breaches, data loss can occur due to:

Human Error: Mistakes happen, and an employee might inadvertently delete crucial data.

Natural Disasters: Events like hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, and fires pose threats to on-site servers.

Storage and System Failures: Hardware and network failures hinder access to applications and data, disrupting business operations.

In such scenarios, having the right tools in place to promptly restore data becomes paramount.

Principles of an Effective Restore and Recovery Strategy

To achieve cyber resilience, consider implementing the following strategies:

1. SaaS Application Continuity: Despite the common belief that cloud-based applications automatically secure data, the responsibility for data protection and backup lies with the customer. Native recovery options are often limited and ineffective. OpenText Cybersecurity’s Carbonite™ Cloud-to-Cloud Backup automates backups, encrypts information, and ensures secure data restoration.

2. Cloud System Recovery: As businesses transition to hybrid operations, combining local servers and cloud storage, the risk of cybercrime and data loss increases. OpenText Cybersecurity’s Carbonite™ Server Backup provides a secure, continuously updated backup for both local and cloud servers, allowing seamless data recovery when needed.

3. Disaster Recovery: Even with robust tools for preventing and protecting against cyber-attacks, data loss from natural disasters, hardware failures, or power outages remains a risk. OpenText Cybersecurity’s Carbonite™ Recover offers a continuously updated backup of critical servers and systems, enabling quick failover to an up-to-date copy within minutes

These tools, part of OpenText Cybersecurity, provide a comprehensive recovery protection solution through a single provider. In addition to addressing prevention and protection layers, they ensure businesses are equipped for the challenges of an ever-evolving security landscape.
