If there is one thing that keeps most IT practitioners up at night, it is the threat of ransomware. Ransomware and other cybercrimes are an increasing concern among enterprises. A report from Cybersecurity Ventures expects global cybercrime costs will grow by 15% annually over the next five years, reaching more than $10 trillion by 2025.

Ransomware attacks are inevitable. For CIOs and CISOs, the focus is not preventing them but knowing how to respond when they occur. Ensuring robust data security and ransomware protection is a top priority, but organizations also need to consider how they will respond to an attack to minimize its impact and maintain business continuity. How can organizations protect valuable data without complicating operations? How do they recover lost data while minimizing disruptions?  Who is responsible for maintaining data sovereignty and compliance requirements? How do you obtain, develop, and constantly refine the skills and resources (both human and technical) needed to tackle these daunting questions without incurring exorbitant recurring costs?

With so many questions to consider and no one-size-fits-all solutions, ransomware response and recovery can be complicated — but it doesn’t have to be.

A bespoke solution to a complex problem

To address this multifaceted issue, Wipro teamed up with Cohesity to offer a join ransomware service that enables customers to improve their security posture against cybersecurity threats while ensuring business continuity and disaster preparedness.

Wipro Enterprise Recovery Vault powered by Cohesity pairs Cohesity's innovative data management solutions and cutting edge anti-ransomware capabilities with Wipro's strategic IT consulting services, API-based automation frameworks, and global reach.
