With ransomware attacks surging in both frequency and complexity, traditional security measures are no longer sufficient. Achieving genuine cyber resiliency requires a holistic approach that encompasses both proactive defense and rapid recovery.
What is Cyber Resiliency?
It's the ability to withstand, recover from, and adapt to adverse conditions, stresses, attacks, or compromises to systems that use or are enabled by cyber resources.
Key Components:
Robust Security Posture: Implementing advanced threat detection, prevention, and vulnerability management.
Accelerated Recovery: Ensuring rapid restoration of critical data and systems following an attack.
Continuous Monitoring and Adaptation: Staying ahead of evolving threats through ongoing analysis and adjustments.
Let's delve into the specific strategies and technologies that can enhance your organization's cyber resiliency and minimize the impact of ransomware attacks.
Posture & Observability
With Posture & Observability, you can fortify your security posture for business resilience.
You can closely monitor and track the security posture of your backup environment using the following features:
Data Anomalies - With Data Anomalies settings, define a baseline for detecting anomalous file creation, modification, and deletion actions. If the file change exceeds the baseline, Data Anomalies alerts are generated.
Rollback Actions - Restore deleted backups from a secure cache for up to 7 days.
Access Events - View details about who accessed your data (admins, users, APIs).
Security Center - Get a real-time security posture risk assessment and in-depth insights into the status and health of your backup environment.
SIEM integrations - Extend security event alerts and data into SIEM tools with one of the several pre-packaged integrations (Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel) or with Druva APIs. Track user access patterns. Monitor compliance with geo-based policies.
Ransomware Recovery
Accelerated Ransomware Recovery (ARR) can help save the day in case you are unfortunately attacked by ransomware.
Quarantine Bay - Restrict infected resources from interacting with other resources and contain the spread of malware.
Restore Scan - Scan the data for viruses and malware using file hashes during a data restore activity before restoring data
Curated Snapshots - Create a single, cleanest snapshot based on the defined date range and anti-virus scan parameters.
Threat Hunting - Enhance your security by proactively hunting for hidden threats. Threat Hunting reduces attacker dwell time and strengthens your defenses beyond traditional security measures.
IOC Library and Threat Intelligence - Enhance your cyber defense with the Druva IOC Library. This central resource simplifies the management of IOC sets for diverse malware families, enabling swift and effective detection and mitigation of cyber attacks.
