The Essential Best Practices Guide: Hardening Enterprise Backups
Cybercriminals have increasingly begun targeting backup systems—the very last line of defense in an enterprise’s cybersecurity posture. Traditional protections like immutability and air-gapping, while important, are not foolproof.
To mitigate these risks, the Best Practice Guide offers a range of tips and configuration recommendations, including a “Do’s and Don’ts” checklist to help guide implementation of secure immutable backups, such as enabling retention lock and avoiding shared credentials across systems.
The overall message is clear: resilient backup systems require proactive, continuous hardening—not just one-time configuration.
