Many organizations consider backup and recovery of data to be the last line of defense against ransomware attacks. At Veritas, we recommend prioritizing it as a meaningful and reliable part of a comprehensive, multi-layered cybersecurity strategy. When a ransomware attack happens to our healthcare systems, it doesn’t just impact infrastructure, it also affects every aspect of patient care. When a life is on the line, time is of the essence to act promptly, which is why losing a life because of a ransomware attack that caused a delay in providing quality healthcare is completely unacceptable.
