As organizations increasingly rely on cloud services for their production workloads and data storage, the need to protect and secure cloud-hosted data has become paramount. To gain insights into the perspectives and methodologies of IT leaders in this space, an independent research firm surveyed 1,700 professionals responsible for managing cloud services. In this article, we will explore the top 10 trends in cloud protection for 2023, based on the findings of the Cloud Protection Trends Report by Veeam Software.
Hybrid- and multi-cloud environments have become the norm for organizations seeking flexibility and scalability in their IT infrastructure. The report highlights the growing importance of protecting data across multiple cloud platforms and the need for comprehensive security strategies that address the unique challenges of hybrid and multi-cloud environments. With organizations leveraging a combination of public and private clouds, as well as on-premises infrastructure, cloud protection solutions must adapt to these complex realities.
As more businesses embark on their cloud migration journeys, ensuring the security and integrity of data during the transition is a top priority. The report emphasizes the need for organizations to incorporate data protection measures throughout the cloud migration process. This includes implementing backup and disaster recovery solutions to safeguard data during migration, as well as establishing robust security controls to protect against potential vulnerabilities and data breaches.
Virtual machines (VMs) are a fundamental building block of cloud infrastructure, serving as the foundation for running applications and services in the cloud. The report highlights the critical importance of protecting cloud-hosted VMs from data loss and downtime. It emphasizes the need for organizations to implement backup and recovery solutions specifically designed for cloud-based VMs, ensuring the availability and recoverability of mission-critical workloads.
Cloud-hosted databases are a key component of modern IT infrastructure, enabling organizations to store, manage, and analyze vast amounts of data. The report emphasizes the significance of securing these databases against unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security threats. It highlights the need for robust backup and encryption solutions to protect sensitive data stored in cloud-hosted databases, as well as continuous monitoring and vulnerability management to mitigate potential risks.
Cloud-based file shares have revolutionized the way organizations collaborate and share information. However, ensuring the security and integrity of these shared files is crucial. The report sheds light on the challenges organizations face in protecting cloud-hosted file shares and the need for comprehensive data protection solutions. It emphasizes the importance of implementing backup, access controls, and encryption mechanisms to safeguard sensitive files stored in the cloud.
Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) offerings have gained traction in recent years, providing organizations with scalable, cost-effective solutions for data protection and disaster recovery. The report explores the various levels of BaaS and DRaaS, ranging from self-managed to white-glove service offerings. It emphasizes the need for organizations to evaluate their specific requirements and choose the appropriate level of service to ensure the resilience and recoverability of their cloud data.
With the rapid evolution of cloud technology, organizations now have a plethora of options for cloud-powered data protection. The report highlights the importance of understanding and evaluating these options to choose the right solution for specific business needs. Whether it’s cloud-native backup solutions, third-party integrations, or hybrid approaches, organizations must assess factors such as scalability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of implementation to select the most suitable cloud protection solution.
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms, such as Microsoft 365, have become integral to modern workplace productivity. However, many organizations mistakenly assume that data stored in SaaS platforms is automatically protected. The report emphasizes the need for organizations to combine third-party data protection solutions with enhanced features offered by SaaS providers. It also highlights the importance of having diverse stakeholders involved in data protection strategies while ensuring consistent backup operations.
For organizations seeking external expertise and support in managing their cloud data protection, engaging with Managed Service Providers (MSPs) can be a viable option. The report explores the considerations organizations should keep in mind when selecting an MSP for their backup and disaster recovery needs. It highlights the importance of understanding the level of service provided, whether it is a “white-glove” fully managed service or a more self-managed approach, to ensure alignment with organizational requirements.
The report concludes by emphasizing the ongoing nature of the journey toward cloud-powered data protection. It highlights the importance of continually evaluating and adapting cloud protection strategies to keep pace with evolving technologies and emerging threats. Organizations must remain proactive in their approach, leveraging the latest advancements in cloud protection solutions and best practices to ensure the security and resilience of their cloud-hosted data.
