More than one-third of companies still do not have a well-rounded, holistic ransomware strategy in place, according to Zerto.

In all, just over half of the companies surveyed focus on both recovery and prevention.

Still, the fact that companies are reevaluating strategies they have in place, especially considering that nearly two thirds of those surveyed have multiple data protection and ransomware detection tools at their disposal, signals that prevention is not enough and that legacy data protection falls short.

"It's encouraging to see that organizations are reevaluating their ransomware strategies. For companies that have not put a focus on recovery, this is a step in the right direction toward a more holistic ransomware strategy," continued Seymour.

The survey's findings suggest that companies need to reevaluate their ransomware strategies and adopt a more holistic approach that includes recovery, data protection, and cyber insurance.

Companies can better protect themselves from the devastating financial and operational consequences of a ransomware attack.
