## Frequently Asked Questions

Why is it important to identify all sensitive and critical data to address security and compliance concerns?

You can recover faster because organizations can identify and classify your organization’s data regularly, including its age, ownership, and usefulness.

How can enterprises identify data anomalies and highlight potential data corruption or malware in a timely manner?

Identify deviations from established behavioral baselines within your network to flag previously unknown types of ransomware and other cyber threats.

Why should organizations store a tertiary copy of data in an isolated and air-gapped environment?

It efficiently separates and segregates secondary or tertiary backup copies from the source environments, making them unreachable from the corporate network. Together with immutable storage and rapid restoration capabilities, it is a crucial element in protecting data from cyber threats.

Why is it recommended that Enteprises perform quarterly cyber recovery testing of all critical applications, and show demonstrable evidence of recovery readiness?

It verifies that backup data can be effectively restored and returned to its original condition in case of a disaster, data loss, or system malfunction. This process also assures organizations that they can retrieve essential data and applications quickly, within acceptable timeframes, and with minimal data loss.

How can an organization perform forensics securely in an isolated environment without causing any potential infections?

You can perform forensics like examine file metadata, timestamps, checksums, and other indicators of data integrity without causing further infections.

Why is it important to identify data anomalies and highlight potential data corruption or malware in a timely manner.

Identify deviations from established behavioral baselines within your network to flag previously unknown types of ransomware and other cyber threats.
