Have You Defined Your Data Backed Up Strategy? | Daily Life IT News for Public | Important News 2021

Human beings are the weakest link in the cybersecurity ecosystem. It also becomes essential for enterprises to regularly train their non-IT staff and create an awareness amongst them in order to protect their consumer's data from being exposed in a data breach incident due to threats like phishing, malware and brute force attacks. Regular system updates and proactive disclosure of such incidents also help businesses in creating a stronger strategy to fight against data breaches'. It is absolutely true that, 100% of what we had backed up we were able to recover. Even after paying the ransom, there is no guarantee that you’ll recover from a ransomware attack. A well-planned strategy however will go a long way in achieving that.



Ransomware has made headlines for several years, but it was really thrust into the spotlight again this month with the Colonial Pipeline attack. The Colonial Pipeline reportedly paid a $5 million ransom. At the same time, India has seen numerous instances of organizations becoming a victim of a data breach incident in the recent few years. These data leak incidents took place due to many factors and not just because of the lack of security at the organization's end. It is important for businesses to understand the factors that can cause a data breach in order to be fully prepared to prevent an incident, or mitigate the risks caused by it. Businesses who are a victim of a data breach today not only are responsible to protect their consumer's data, but also prevent it from being misused by the cybercriminals as an aftermath of a data breach.
