We pit AWS Backup, Azure Backup, and Veeam against each other on RPO/RTO, immutability, and cost. One clear winner for most workloads—but it's not the...
The 3-2-1 rule isn't enough anymore. If your cloud backup can be deleted with the same credentials as your production data, it's a hostage, not a back...
Compare AWS Backup, LTO tape, and manual snapshots for cloud backup against ransomware. Which wins for your RPO and RTO? Blunt advice included.
The old 3-2-1 backup rule isn't enough anymore. Ransomware evolved. Here's how to build a cloud backup strategy that actually survives an attack—witho...
Cloud backups can fail against ransomware. We argue for the 3-2-1-1-0 rule and immutable copies to ensure true recovery.
Cloud backups are convenient, but without regular restore tests, you're just storing copies. Here's why testing is the real backup strategy.
Imagine your cloud data vanishes. This field guide walks through a realistic ransomware scenario, applying the 3-2-1-1-0 rule, RPO/RTO, and cloud-spec...
Cloud backups are not inherently safe from ransomware. We argue for the 3-2-1-1-0 rule, with an immutable or air-gapped copy, and explain why testing ...
