Why Cloud‑Based Data Is Just As Susceptible to Cyberattacks
Research consistently reveals that cloud‑based workloads are just as likely to become affected during a cyberattack. In 2022, when an organization was attacked:
-
86%
of organizations had
cloud‑hosted data
affected by ransomware -
90%
of organizations had
remote office data
affected by ransomware -
91%
of organizations had
data center data
affected by ransomware
With the rise of cloud‑hosted data being affected in attacks, the need for cyber resiliency in your hybrid cloud backups has never been greater.
This Is Why Protecting One Cloud With Another
Is Such a Good Idea.
-
37%
of organizations suffered IT interruptions due to "infrastructure or networking outages."
-
88%
of organizations suffered IT interruptions due to "public cloud resources being unavailable."
-
35%
of organizations suffered IT interruptions due to "cybersecurity event."
-
42%
of organizations suffered IT interruptions due to "public cloud resources being unavailable."
Hybrid IT is delivered seamlessly, such that cloud‑hosted data is just as vulnerable and must be protected with the same rigor and methodologies as on‑premises workloads.
