Is Storage The Weak Link In Your Cyber-Resilience Strategy?

Search Storage, Friday, September 5th, 2025

While challenges exist in applying cyber resilience to storage platforms, vendors are starting to make it easier for organizations to add that needed layer of protection.

With the knowledge that a large-scale cyberattack is more a case of "when" than "if," organizations require a comprehensive cyber-resiliency strategy. Since attacks such as ransomware are squarely targeting an organization's data, this brings the data -- and storage infrastructure -- into sharp focus.

This focus now seems to be translating into much higher interest levels. A great example is the buyer activity on the Informa TechTarget network. When we look at the storage and data protection segment over the last 180 days, the topic driving the most buyer activity overall is "cyber resilience." Moreover, activity here outstrips the number two topic -- "artificial intelligence" -- by more than two to one. Several additional security-related topics -- cloud security, ransomware, zero-trust, data security, continuity management and security frameworks -- dominate the rest of the top 10.
