Data Protection Gumbo

Simon Taylor, CEO of HYCU discusses the state of SaaS resilience and the critical need for SaaS data protection. We discuss insights from a recent report surveying over 417 IT decision-makers worldwide. Simon shares the shocking statistic that 61% of ransomware attacks occur through SaaS services, challenging the assumption that SaaS data is inherently protected. He stresses the importance of backing up SaaS data and highlights the shared responsibility model, where SaaS providers back up their infrastructure but not the customer’s data.
