whitePaper | November 29, 2022

We live in an intensely data-driven world, where data loss is unacceptable and quick access to information with real-time analytics driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence is at the core of decision making. Effective data protection is a critical component of every successful business. Now, more than ever, organizations are looking at their data protection strategies through a new lens. They are evaluating old practices, with a focus on making data protection a hands-off, efficient solution they can rely on without applying extensive IT resources. This can be accomplished through standardizing on a vendor with a comprehensive data protection offering, single management capabilities, and support across a diverse network of systems on-premises, in public and private data centers, in multiple clouds, and in remote office/branch offices (ROBO) and edge environments.

Held Hostage in Hollywood: In February 2016 the Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center, in Los Angeles, paid a ransom of about US$17,000 to hackers who infiltrated and disabled its computer network with ransomware. The hospital paid the ransom of 40 Bitcoins (currently worth about $16,664) after a “network infiltration” began on February 5, when employees reported being unable to access the hospital’s network and electronic medical records system. “The malware locked access to certain computer systems and prevented us from sharing communications electronically,” said hospital CEO Allen Stefanek.
