Cybercriminals are now increasingly targeting your backups — attempting to disable them from occurring,
encrypting them or deleting them completely. If subsequent attacks on your primary data are successful, you will
not be able to recover, forcing you to pay the ransom.
Backup appliances can play a critical role in thwarting ransomware attacks by blocking physical connection to your
backed-up data, encrypting data, creating immutable copies that threat actors cannot alter and verifying login
credentials through access control methods to prevent insider attacks.
