Every year, enterprises worldwide lose billions of dollars worth of data and lost productivity to ransomware. According to a recent report by Aberdeen Research, a company with 1,000 workers, each with a laptop, handling collectively 10TB of data, is likely to lose nearly $500K from a successful ransomware attack. And there’s a 10% chance it’ll lose more than $2.5M.
However, after setting up a cloud backup and restore solution, the likely loss goes down to about $54K. And the loss from a 10% worst-case attack goes down to $200K. That means a solution that lets you easily back-up all your enterprise data in the cloud, and restore it quickly, can reduce the impact of a ransomware attack by more than 90%.
