With the rapid growth of ransomware attacks, enterprises all share the same concern: “If we get hit by ransomware, can we recover?” The reality is, when traditional security products fail and data is compromised, the stakes are high, and IT and Security teams are often left on their own. So we asked ourselves, can we give them the ultimate assurance that Rubrik will be there for them?
At the Rubrik Data Security Summit, leaders from both the public and private sectors discussed an important topic: ransomware. Cyber threats continue to expand in both volume and sophistication with attacks growing at a rate of 150% annually. As attackers increasingly target backups, it will be even more paramount for policies and guidance from government agencies to match the security innovation of private sector businesses to mitigate the risks of this cyber pandemic head-on.
Customers using Microsoft SQL Server tend to grow horizontally in terms of the number of databases. For recent versions of SQL Server, the max number of databases you can have on a single instance is 32,767 and it is common to see customers push that limit. At Rubrik, we have run into several customers who approach 10,000 databases on a single host. As SQL Server accelerates the push into the enterprise segment, one needs to address the problem of managing and protecting these servers at scale.
