The useful part

This shift is particularly important in the age of ransomware and AI-driven attacks. Cyber incidents can spread across systems, identities and data at machine speed. They need to understand its impact, protect their recovery infrastructure and restore business operations quickly and safely.

How it works

  • Backup used to be a relatively passive process: copy the data, store it somewhere safe and restore it when necessary.
  • AI and machine learning can analyze changes in protected data, detect suspicious behavior, identify potentially clean recovery points and help organizations make better recovery decisions.
  • This is where artificial intelligence is beginning to transform backup and recovery.
  • Today, leading cyber resilience platforms are turning backup environments into intelligent security systems.
  • Backups Are Becoming a Source of Security Intelligence Every backup contains more than just files and applications.

Details worth keeping

As a result, organizations need more than the ability to detect an attack.
