There are often 2 threats from a randsomware attack - what you describe mitigates against data loss, but not against data being posted online by an attacker.

- rectang 6y agoI disagree. Restoring quickly to a known-good state is a crucial aspect of shutting down an attack after the intrusion is detected. If you can't get the attacker out of the system, they will have more opportunity to exfiltrate data.
- GordonS 6y agoI'm not disagreeing with having the ability to restore your data - plainly that's vital to business continuity. My point is that it's not the only consideration.
