In today’s digital landscape where cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and prevalent, organizations must adopt a multi-layered approach to safeguard their valuable data. Two critical components of a robust data protection strategy are an isolated recovery environment and an immutable data vault. In this blog post, we will explore the necessity of utilizing both components […]
Cybersecurity has evolved far beyond protecting passwords and preventing intrusions. Cyber resiliency builds on cybersecurity with measures to not only prevent and detect attacks but also recover from them effectively. Are your disaster recovery and backup solutions up to the task of cyber resilience? Consider these five ways they may be deficient. 1. Not Following […]
I have been working on replication and disaster recovery solutions for over 20 years, and this has been a common question throughout. One of my colleagues used to reply with another question: “How long is a piece of string?”. The truth is that you can only know by measuring it. I once created a handy […]
There are many types of replication solutions for data protection, but today I want to focus on two of the most common types: hypervisor-based and storage. Both replication types can come in the form of snapshot replication or real-time replication with variations between asynchronous, synchronous, and near-synchronous. They both may also be included as features […]
The need to protect sensitive data has never been greater. Organizations continue to migrate to virtual data centers and cloud environments while dealing with the persistent threat of data breaches. Regulatory demands, such as PCI/DSS, HIPAA/HITECH, GDPR, GLBA, and SOX, will continue to proliferate. Thales, with its CipherTrust Data Security Platform and Luna Hardware Security […]

New capabilities include powerful tools to protect data and applications against ransomware and provide enhanced security with new Zerto for Azure architecture. Around the same time, HPE GreenLake for Disaster Recovery, built with Zerto and integrated into […]
Data is growing faster than ever, and protecting it is becoming increasingly complex. In 2023, organizations will generate nearly 3 times the volume of data generated in 2019. The total data created will reach 181ZB by 2025. How can all this data be protected? Data loss can result in downtime and lost revenue in addition […]

On Halloween, we hosted our 8th annual Scary DR Stories where we heard from real customers about real IT nightmares in their past. This year we had three spine-tingling tales that covered everything from hardware failures and human errors to ominous outages, monstrous migrations, and a blindsiding bioterrorism attack! After customers shared their stories, we […]
What Is DRaaS? Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is one deployment method for disaster recovery. It used to involve bringing a datacenter to you on the back of a large truck and uploading your data to it. Old-fashioned as that sounds, this cumbersome and time-consuming process was once the gold standard for disaster recovery […]
Data Everywhere Business continuity is an area of increasing complexity in the current multi-cloud IT paradigm. In the old days, we used backups to protect against ‘localized’, limited-impact data loss, like a single system crash, and small-scale data loss. On the other hand, disaster recovery is a set of plans and technical capabilities that help […]
On Alton Brown’s cooking show, he used to abhor a unitasker – a tool used for only one thing. They clutter the cabinets and are useful only in the rare instance that you need to slice an egg or store half an onion. Similarly, a unitasking product in tech is annoying. They clutter your IT […]
