VMBlog, CyberFortress 2023 Predictions: Navigating SaaS and Backup in a Perfect Storm

CyberFortress CTO Nathan Anderson was featured on VMblog.com sharing his 2023 predictions for the Data Protection industry in the article, “Navigating SaaS and Backup in a Perfect Storm.”

Key Takeaways:

• According to a survey of IT Leaders by Veeam software, more than 75% stated they use a third-party BaaS to cover Microsoft 365. Implementing the backup solution is time-consuming and costly; Providers who can streamline the onboarding process for clients will see the most gain.

• Services such as disaster to infrastructure recovery (DRaaS and IaaS) are crucial for a complete backup solution. As the complexity of backup requirements increases, so must the expertise of those managing the solutions. MSPs are a necessity when current internal talent and IT teams are spread thin.

• With the uncertainty of when a cyberattack will occur, planning your Disaster Recovery will make the difference between ensuring business continuity or having your business operations down for an undetermined amount of time.

• According to SpyCloud’s Ransomware Defense Report, half of the surveyed customers encountered a cyberattack in 2022.  With the high frequency of cyberattacks, the expectations of MSPs have increased as well.
