OT Data Protection & Resilience is the practice of securing industrial control system data, such as PLC logic, HMI configurations, and historian archives, against loss or cyberattack, while ensuring fast recovery to maintain safety and production continuity. In modern industrial environments, the traditional concept of"security as a barrier" is no longer sufficient.

I’ve spoken to enough business owners over the years to notice a pattern. Nobody thinks about backups on a normal day. But the moment something breaks – during a war,...

Every year on March 31st, World Backup Day rolls around with a simple but important message: Backup your data. It sounds almost too basic, right? I mean we all know in our minds that we should be doing that, and in a world of AI, zero-day exploits and nation-state threats, backing up data can feel like a cybersecurity 101 task.

World Backup Day is a helpful reminder that reliable backups are essential for maintaining the availability and confidentiality of data. With the amount of global data created expected to reach 230-240 zettabytes in 2026, protecting both business and personal data is critical. This year, World Backup Day is even more meaningful as it also marks Acronis’ 23rd birthday.

Amazon S3 is reliable cloud storage provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Files are stored as objects in Amazon S3 buckets. This storage is widely used to store data backups due to the high reliability of Amazon S3. Unlike Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS), where redundant data is stored in one availability zone, in Amazon S3, redundant data is distributed across multiple availability zones.

Service providers are entering a major infrastructure transition period. The global IaaS market is about $170 billion and growing at roughly 22% year over year. At the same time, VMware disruption is pushing 50%–75% of customers to evaluate alternatives, more than $30 billion of infrastructure spend is already flowing outside the major hyperscalers and sovereign Cloud demand is rising fast.

In the previous posts, we took a look at setting up VMkernel networks, including storage and vMotion. Now, we discuss configuring ESXi networks for the VMs themselves. VM networks provide connectivity of the VMs to the production network. Let’s walk through how these are configured. NAKIVO for VMware vSphere Backup Complete data protection for VMware vSphere VMs and instant recovery options. Secure backup targets onsite, offsite and in the cloud. Anti-ransomware features. DISCOVER SOLUTION.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how organizations operate, but it’s also reshaping one of the most complex areas of IT: compliance. What was once a structured, checklist-driven process is now one that is continuous and fast-moving and that introduces new risks, dependencies and expectations. As AI adoption accelerates, so does the pressure on both managed service providers(MSPs) and IT professionals to interpret and comply with evolving regulations.

Quick definition: Data loss prevention (DLP), also known as data leakage prevention or data loss protection, is a set of technologies and policies that stop sensitive corporate data from leaving the organisation due to user negligence, data mishandling, or malicious intent. DLP solutions enforce data handling rules by allowing or blocking data access and transfer operations based on predefined security policies.

Zero-day vulnerability: A security flaw in software, hardware, or firmware that is unknown to the vendor responsible for fixing it. Because no patch exists, the flaw is exploitable from the moment it is discovered by an attacker. Zero-day exploit: The specific technique, code, or method an attacker uses to take advantage of a zero-day vulnerability. A single vulnerability may have multiple exploits.
