Immutable Backups - The Restore Challenge

(QQ)

Stream: Storage Management
Time: 15:15 - 16:00


Presentation

Don’t be caught out thinking immutable backups solve all attack vectors when a little preplanning will prevent a colossal problem when under attack. IBM, Dell and Hitachi have done a great job of making the backup of your entire system quick and easy. However, when you go to recover there is work to do.



Specific questions include:

• What was compromised, so what do I need to recover? (hint – it is rarely your whole complex)

• Which backup is right one to recover from (time / date)

• How do I recover the most recent, trusted version of my database?

• How do I restore my system components  when malware could have been inserted weeks ago?

• Is there a way to automate the recovery so it is faster and more precise?



This session highlights some of the issues with immutable backups and the significant differences between backup and recovery. New technology can have a dramatic impact on recovery time and completeness.
