Data and IT environments throughout the world are increasingly at danger from cybersecurity threats, which is putting pressure on IT departments and worrying business owners. Info-Tech Research Group, a global IT research and advisory firm, has released a new industry blueprint, Data Backup Moves Closer to Data Protection, to assist businesses in adapting their data protection strategy to the present and future climates, given the constant evolution of traditional methods of protecting information to meet emerging challenges.

Historically, data backup has been the purview of IT operations, while the protection of data from malicious attacks has been the responsibility of security teams. Due to the increasing sophistication of these attacks, suppliers have been forced to include new features in their software to safeguard backups and prevent data loss.
Keeping up with the plethora of new terms and features signifying a shift in the backup industry is difficult, since many once known as “backup and recovery” organisations are now known as “data protection” (DP) platforms. In addition, IT staff have a hard time grasping the implications on the business and data protection strategy owing to the ubiquity of references to data security and data protection compliance.
