The 2025 Security Maturity of Storage & Data Protection Systems
The third edition of The 2025 Security Maturity of Storage & Data Protection Systems assessed 323 environments with 11,435 storage and backup devices from leading providers including Dell, NetApp, Rubrik, Cohesity, Veritas, Hitachi Vantara, Pure, IBM and others.
The findings highlight a critical shortfall in the security maturity of enterprise storage and backup systems, revealing how far they lag behind other layers of the IT stack. In the face of a surge in breaches, growing exploitation of vulnerabilities, the vast amounts of sensitive data at stake, and increasing regulatory pressures, it’s clear that storage and backup security demands immediate and prioritized attention.
