Cybersecurity is a subject that is top of mind across the enterprise, from the IT department up to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Ransomware, malware attacks, and corporate data theft can cost companies millions, lead to government compliance violations, cause lasting reputational damage, and negatively affect operations if businesses are not adequately prepared for recovery. Data is the critical target of malware attacks, and malicious actors will look to exploit any vulnerability. Integrating primary storage into a comprehensive cyber security strategy and building cyber-resilience into the storage architecture is a significant step in thwarting such attacks

Cybersecurity is a constantly evolving field, with new technologies opening new avenues for cyberattacks, notes Hayden Sadler, Country Manager for South Africa at Infinidat. Furthermore, while significant security breaches are frequently publicised, organisations need to learn how to improve their security posture and become more cyber resilient.This rapid development and adoption of new technologies make it difficult for organisations to stay on top of and keep their cybersecurity programs agile enough to react. This is due to known skills shortages that are difficult to quantify, specifically in the cybersecurity space. This makes it difficult for organisations to find the right person, or even for a comprehensive cybersecurity task team, to address a business-specific cybersecurity strategy in need of implementation.

Technology is all about change. It changes to meet the demands of the organisation wrestling with uncertainty. It changes to meet customer and market expectations that flux and flex with capability and innovation. The organisation is challenged to find smart ways of keeping up with tech in order to remain the disruptor, not the disrupted, and so it can fully tap into its potential and remain sustainable while building on the market’s cracked foundations.

Today’s digital businesses run on data, and persistent storage of that data is at the heart of most service offerings. Storage platforms need to deliver the availability, scalability, reliability, efficiency, and simplicity that service providers require, with consumption models that meet the financial needs of today’s service providers
