Are You Vulnerable to an Attack like the one on Kaseya?
Mr. Backup and Prasanna discuss the Kaseya attack that happened over the July 4th weekend of 2021. First, we talk about how bad actors use long weekends for attacks, then discuss various things you can/should do to ensure that your environment would not be vulnerable to such an attack. We talk about the kinds of questions that even an unskilled person can ask to help mitigate this risk, including (especially) the all-important questions about backups. We also talk about the need for establishing a "bat-phone" type connection between your environment and any providers you may be using. We have a short talk about the impact that all these attacks are having on ransomware costs, and how you can use your DR site to test patches.
