LONDON, June 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NordLocker, one of the leaders in encrypted cloud storage services, highlights the importance of continuous data protection as a new report finds that 65% of ransomware attacks result in data being encrypted. In 90% of the incidents, a business's ability to operate is impacted.

One of the most valuable business assets is its data, be it client information, contracts, sales figures, marketing plans, or other details that are confidential and/or critical to an organizations operations. Thus, not only competing businesses but also cybercriminals are after this vital information, says Oliver Noble, a cybersecurity expert at NordLocker, an encrypted cloud storage provider. In order to avoid the risk of being cut out of timely access to data, a company needs to ensure it keeps reliable and frequent backups.

What is continuous data protection?

Continuous data protection (CDP) is real-time backup where every change a user makes to data automatically gets backed up. As opposed to traditional systems that back up data periodically, for example, nightly or weekly, CDP records every version a user saves. In case of data loss or corruption, continuous backup allows the user or administrator to restore data at any point in time.

CDP ensures that unexpected events, such as power outages or natural disasters, dont cause gaps in coverage of critical business assets, says Oliver Noble. With CDP, a company can roll back its systems and data almost immediately after experiencing a ransomware attack or data loss due to human error, which remains the main cause of cybersecurity incidents at work.

Best solutions for continuous data protection

Any business that cant afford its data getting lost, stolen, leaked, or destroyed and thus looking for security and peace of mind should consider using continuous data protection. Companies of all sizes, from small family-owned companies to large enterprises, can benefit from CDP by minimizing the impact of various incidents and keeping their business running smoothly.

CDP can be used to protect data stored on-premise or in the cloud.
