The Value of Tape
in a World of Ransomware and Cybercrime
As society becomes increasingly
dependent on technology, protecting our
data will be a permanent challenge for
the future.
A solid defense against cyber
attacks is critical but the increasing
sophistication and numbers of criminals
means you can't stop every attack. It's
not just what you can block it's how
quickly you can bounce back when the
inevitable blow lands.
Effective disaster
recovery solutions are essential when
the threat of ransomware is evolving all
the time. In this modern cutting-edge
technological environment we're surely
going to need a cutting edge an equally
modern solution.
One of the most
effective disaster recovery technologies
available may seem old-fashioned but in
reality LTO technology has always been
at the forefront of storage innovation
and has continued to evolve through
eight generations of advanced
engineering.
Today offline storage on
magnetic tape
LTO is uniquely resilient against modern
cyber attacks including ransomware
even in high-performance computing
environments where data quantities are
pushing technology to its limit, tape has
an important role to play. Tape fulfills
the criteria of the best practice for
data protection
three-two-one-one.
offline data is unreachable by malware
unlike network and cloud storage
LTO technology is also incredibly
cost-effective compared to cloud and
other storage solutions. The cost per
gigabyte is the lowest available meaning
you can afford multiple copies of your
data and it helps to control expenses as
your business grows and your data needs
increase. But storage costs aren't
everything, data retrieval from cloud
storage costs money and can be slow.
With
LTO technology there are no retrieval
costs and restoring only takes a few
minutes!
