Ransomware Resilience for your persistent or hyperdisks
AI Summary
This video features Ashika Ganesh, a product manager at Google Cloud, explaining how to enhance ransomware resilience for persistent or hyperdisk backups using Google Cloud’s Backup Vault service. The video begins by highlighting the increasing importance of data protection against cyber threats like ransomware and malicious deletion. The Backup Vault offers immutable, indelible, and airgap backup storage integrated with Google Cloud Identity and Access Management, allowing granular permissioning, multi-project backup isolation, and anomaly detection through Security Command Center.
Ashika then walks through a step-by-step demo to enhance cyber resilience. First, she demonstrates creating a backup vault with location selection, enforce retention periods, and access restrictions. Next, she shows how to configure a backup plan specifying resource type (disks), schedule, and retention policies. Finally, she applies the backup plan to selected disks for automated backups.
The demo covers how to view backups, create on-demand backups, restore data to chosen projects, and automate backup processes using APIs, CLI, and Terraform. The video concludes by encouraging viewers to leverage Backup Vault to secure critical data against ransomware and deletion threats.
