Why Backups Aren't Enough & Identity Recovery is Key against Ransomware

Why Backups Aren't Enough & Identity Recovery is Key against Ransomware

Think your cloud backups will save you from a ransomware attack? Think again. In this episode, Matt Castriotta (Field CTO at Rubrik) explains why the traditional "I have backups" mindset is dangerous. He distinguishes between Disaster Recovery (business continuity for operational errors) and Cyber Resilience (recovering from a malicious attack where data and identity are untrusted) .

Matt speaks about the "dirty secrets" of cloud-native recovery, explaining why S3 versioning and replication are not valid cyber recovery strategies . The conversation shifts to the critical, often overlooked aspect of Identity Recovery. If your Active Directory or Entra ID is compromised, it's "ground zero” and you can't access anything. Matt argues that identity must be treated as the new perimeter and backed up just like any other critical data source .

We also explore the impact of AI agents on data integrity, how do you "rewind" an AI agent that hallucinated and corrupted your data? Plus, practical advice on DORA compliance, multi-cloud resiliency, and the "people and process" side of surviving a breach.
