Mind the (Air) Gap

The reliable backup, organization and archiving of your company data must have top priority. In times of cyber war, phishing and ransomware attacks, data backup plays a crucial role. An excellent protection against data theft or misuse is air gap (or air gapping). We explain why air gaps are essential for reliable and cost-effective backup. In short, an air gap means physical isolation from other computers, intranets, or the Internet by transporting a storage medium. The basic concept of an air gap is simple: if data can't be accessed, then it can't...

Zero trust in APIs in a connected business world

EDR without NDR with weaknesses in protection

The Swiss security company Exeon Analytics warns against only relying on conventional EDR solutions (Endpoint Detection & Response) when securing endpoints. Because the agent software does not always run at the end point, which creates weaknesses in the defense network. Many endpoints in modern, hybrid networks do not support the agents required for this, and where such agents are running, they can be undermined and deactivated by sophisticated attacks. Also, because of the trend towards working from home and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), IT and security teams often don't have access to privately owned endpoints...

Managed Service Providers as Trojan Horses

Warnings to managed service providers to keep their IT protection up to date and to introduce new security guidelines are piling up. More recently, government regulators, including those in the UK and US, have reported an increase in malicious cyber activity explicitly targeting managed service providers. This is a development that will continue. A comment from Kay-Uwe-Wirtz, Regional Account Director Barracuda MSP. The reason for this is obvious, given that MSPs have direct access to their customers' networks and applications. Criminals who have successfully compromised an MSP using their infrastructure as a starting point are in the…

Protect backups easily and effectively against ransomware

Backups serve to protect against data loss. If an original is lost, you still have a copy to be on the safe side, as a “backup”. Backing up data could be that easy in a world free of ransomware and natural disasters. But nowadays IT managers have to think a lot more. FAST LTA shows you what a secure, reliable and affordable backup strategy looks like. Ransomware changes the focus of data protection from backup to recovery. Ransomware encrypts user data so that access is no longer possible. The result: IT stands still, which leads to high costs due to failure, recovery and the…
