Security News > 2022 > April > Organizations remain ill-prepared for ransomware attacks

A Zerto study - conducted by ESG - shows that ransomware attacks remain a major concern for organizations.
Nearly three-quarters of organizations experiencing ransomware attacks in the past 12 months were negatively impacted.
Even within the most advanced organizations, 75% suffered operational disruption, calling into question how complete ransomware recovery strategies are even for those considered most prepared.
The data is clear: ransomware attacks are growing in volume and severity.
Organizations require a continuous data protection solution that provides recovery in minutes to a state seconds before an attack.
Since it's not a matter of if but when, organizations need to double down on data protection and recovery.
