Ransomware – A Growing Threat to Businesses

In today’s digital landscape, ransomware attacks are becoming increasingly common and more destructive. Cybercriminals use malicious software to encrypt business data and demand ransom for its release. Even if a company pays the ransom, there is no guarantee that the data will be recovered.

These attacks cause financial losses, operational disruptions, and reputational damage. High-profile incidents targeting hospitals, banks, and government institutions demonstrate the severity of ransomware threats.

How to Protect Your Business from Ransomware?

  • Immutable backups – Dbackup provides backups that cannot be altered, deleted, or encrypted by ransomware.

  • Frequent snapshots – Automated data snapshots multiple times a day ensure you can restore to a safe state before an attack.

  • Air-gapped storage – Backups stored on separate, offline systems prevent ransomware from spreading.

  • Rapid data recovery – Advanced recovery solutions enable businesses to restore operations quickly after an attack.

Investing in a robust backup and recovery solution like Dbackup is essential to keeping your business safe from ransomware threats.
