Proven Architecture: Ransomware Cyber Recovery Is not Disaster Recovery

There’s more to ransomware readiness than back-ups and air-gapping. For the real world, successful recovery with little to no impact is absolutely possible. We’ve helped our education customers do it. Join ConvergeOne’s Tony Ocampo, national technical lead for cyber recovery, as he recounts a firsthand experience with ransomware and details the exact architecture validated by the FBI to safely preserve and restore all data for a ransomware-compromised 30K user environment. You’ll learn the checklist for critical system remediation for a modern higher ed security posture: Reduce your attack surface with technology and people, protect your data with true immutable storage, and implement systems to recover in the right place and time with assurance. This session will differentiate between CR and DR strategies, inform on the impact of each on recovery planning, and give tried and true steps on how to plan and execute. • Protect against rapidly evolving threats • Preserve the prestige of your institution • Prevent gaps in education from downtime Every organization breached by ransomware had some sort of cyber security in place, but only those that have a recovery solution can get back to work quickly. Across the country, and among respected EDUCAUSE members right in our backyards, we provide help to leaders needing answers for addressing ransomware, malicious cyber attacks, and other unforeseen circumstances that compromise critical services and data.
