Of course, the best way to avoid a disaster is to prevent it from happening in the first place. But what does this look like in real-world terms? An in-depth defense strategy must be taken, coupled with a methodology that’s built around secure backups, advanced monitoring and recovery at-scale. Read more

So, it turns out that your data that resides on public cloud IaaS like Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Azure VMs doesn’t protect itself.
