UiQ TV: Adapting Backup Strategies in a Shifting Cyber Landscape

Traditional backup and disaster recovery strategies are failing against modern ransomware attacks that deliberately target your ability to recover.

In this UIQ TV session, Geoff, Mark, and Simon from Ultima explain why 93% of ransomware attacks now focus on compromising backup infrastructure and how immutability has become essential for maintaining recovery capability.

Discover why tape storage, while cost-effective, no longer meets the recovery time objectives demanded by 24/7 business operations, and learn about the hidden costs of public cloud backups where attractive storage pricing masks expensive data retrieval fees.

The discussion covers double and triple extortion tactics where attackers don’t just encrypt data but also threaten to release it publicly, making traditional “we’ll restore from backup” responses insufficient.

Understand how modern backup solutions with immutable storage, automated compliance features for GDPR and data privacy regulations, and integration across hybrid multicloud environments provide the resilience today’s threat landscape demands.
