Description
Nowadays, many organizations are increasingly utilizing object and cloud storage to hold unstructured data, in addition to traditional file systems. The benefits of cloud and object storage, especially for inactive data, have prompted a significant migration or replication of files from legacy NAS systems to these modern solutions. This shift has resulted in a growing amount of data being housed in cloud and object storage; however, it has also introduced an often-overlooked security vulnerability. Typically, the data stored in cloud services or on-premises object storage remains unbacked up due to the common misconception that it is inherently secure. Such an assumption is both negligent and fraught with risk, as the high availability and redundancy provided by these services do not safeguard against issues like human error, ransomware attacks, malware infections, or technology failures. Therefore, it is crucial to implement backup or replication strategies for data kept in cloud and object storage, ideally using a different storage technology located elsewhere, and retaining the original format as it exists in the cloud. By doing so, organizations can enhance their data protection measures and mitigate potential threats to their valuable information.
