When an organization is trying to protect itself from the impact of a ransomware attack, the below two activities become critical from a data protection perspective:
· How to define the endpoint backup policy and configure the backup selection to revive from a Ransomware attack
· How can the organization restore the backed up data in case of a ransomware attack
For this, DLO offers the below capabilities today.
How to define the endpoint backup policy and configure the backup selection to revive from a Ransomware attack:
o DLO allows policies to be defined at a profile level for a centralized management of the endpoints in the organization.
o It also provides a customizable backup selection which can be leveraged by the organizations to tailor fit the endpoint backup policy for a ransomware specific scenario.
§ Multiple revisions of the backed up file can be kept to ensure that there are enough versions to rely on in case of an attack
How can the organization restores the backed up data in case of a Ransomware attack:
o In addition to allowing restores from the administrator side, DLO also allows self-restore capabilities so that users no longer need to be dependent on the It help desk for restoring their backed up data.
o DLO uses AES 256 encryption for data during the transit and at rest.
o Folder permissions for the user folders at the Storage location, ensure that users have access to only their respective backed up data and not that of others.
