Date

Wed, November 13, 2024

Time

5:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. CT

Confront the threat; contain the breach. According to the 2024 Data Protection Trends Report, 82% of organizations can’t recover quickly enough from a cyber-attack to achieve full productivity. In today’s age, it is critical to be resilient in a world of cyberthreats and be confident in your detection, response, and recovery plan. Ultimately this can help you reduce the impact of cyberattacks on your organization and back up whether data is in the cloud, on prem or both. By extending Zero Trust to data backup and recovery, you will be building an effective strategy for securing your IT infrastructure against ransomware and cybersecurity threats.
