Can Your HA Solution Help You Recover from a Ransomware Attack?

While IBM Power Systems running IBM i or IBM AIX have historically been considered a more secure platforms, vulnerabilities can still be exploited. If you are faced with the worst-case scenario of a “successful” ransomware attack, your known-good, immutable data backup files are not just your insurance policy, they are the only known antidote. Maintaining a continuously updated set of known-good, immutable recovery data in highly secure, isolated storage is the minimum standard for IBM i resilience.

Then, restoring a system to a pre-malware state is a powerful tool for combating malware infections. By quickly and effectively restoring the system to a stable state, you can minimize damage and protect your data. However, it’s essential to use this technique in conjunction with other security measures, such as regular backups and ongoing malware protection.

Learn about how a Prevent-Detect-Recover strategy using the combination of Assure Security and Assure MIMIX can be a powerful solution. Using a combination of storage and replications technologies to effectively recover in the event of a malware attack.
