Backup And Security One And The Same For Cisos
Blocks&Files, Thursday, April 27,2023
The separate IT environments of backup and security are merging to become a single operational area for Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs).
This is the view put forward by Simon Chappell, the CEO of UK-based Assured Data Protection (ADP), who B&F interviewed about the state of data protection. ADP has been involved in the field since 2016 and has a relationship with Rubrik. In fact it is Rubrik's largest global partner.
Blocks & Files: With security having an ever stronger influence on data protection and security officers wanting to control, reduce and manage their attack surface, do you think there will be a trend for organizations to reduce their number of backup suppliers and concentrate on ones who have a cybersecurity posture and can help CISOs in their work?
