Summary:

Ransomware attacks are no longer a question of if—it's a matter of when. With hackers increasingly targeting backup and disaster recovery (DR) systems, organizations need more than prevention strategies; they need a battle-tested plan for minimizing damage, forensically determining what's happened and restoring your environment without paying the ransom. Renowned experts W. Curtis Preston and Dr. Mike Saylor offer a comprehensive guide to protecting critical systems and responding effectively when the worst happens. Whether you're a security professional unaware of how exposed your backup systems are, or a backup admin in need of stronger security expertise, this book is your essential roadmap. With actionable advice, clear frameworks, and step-by-step guidance, it bridges the gap between data protection and cybersecurity—empowering teams to deliver decisive, effective responses when faced with ransomware.
