Meanwhile, 81% identify a \u201cprotection gap\u201d between how much data they can afford to lose and how often data is protected.<\/p>\n<p>So, while most IT leaders are less than satisfied with levels of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/resources\/Data-protection-backup-and-archiving\">data protection<\/a>, they are also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252525466\/UK-suffers-third-highest-number-of-ransomware-attacks-globally\">battling ransomware attacks<\/a>. In fact, most organisations questioned had suffered at least one attack in 2022, with many suffering multiple attempts to extort ransoms from them.<\/p>\n<p>Those are some of the findings of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252516130\/How-Veeam-helped-grocery-chain-Franprix-escape-its-backup-hell\">Veeam<\/a> <em>Data protection trends report 2023<\/em>, which questioned 4,200 IT decision makers globally, including 349 in the UK and Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252518340\/Veeam-outlines-data-protection-vision\">Veeam<\/a> report gives a snapshot of data protection and backup, as well as the balance of physical and virtual servers, on-premise and in the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>The big picture background is that there is a near-even split between on-premise and cloud server locations, with 28% reporting use of physical servers in datacentres, 27% with virtual servers in datacentres, and 45% with cloud-hosted server instances.\u00a0Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/feature\/Kubernetes-backup-products-and-10-key-players\">containers have been used<\/a> in production by 65% of respondents in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>That proliferation of data processing and storage locations appears to be a key driver behind 32% of respondents, who say they want to standardise data protection across datacentre and hosted workloads as part of their IT strategy in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>But, as a backdrop to changes in the locations and methods of processing data, cyber security issues have been a huge obstacle to smooth working.<\/p>\n<p>Out of those questioned, 85% of organisations said they were attacked at least once in the past 12 months, which is up from 76% in last year\u2019s report.<\/p>\n<p>Only 24% of those questioned said they had suffered no ransomware attack in 2022. Meanwhile, 19% said they had been subject to a single attack, 36% suffered two or three, and 18% were hit by four or more.<\/p>\n<p>Out of those who were attacked, the average volume of data made unusable was 39%, with only 55% of data being recoverable.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps not surprisingly in light of these numbers, 38% said the threat of ransomware was the biggest hindrance to digital transformation and IT modernisation.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside this \u2013 and even perhaps because of it \u2013 the secular change in data movement towards the cloud is ongoing.<\/p>\n<p>The proportion that report hosting physical and virtual servers on-site has declined. Figures for physical and virtual on-premise were 38% and 30% respectively in 2020. That has trended downwards with 26% and 24% expected by 2025. Meanwhile, those that report cloud server hosting have increased from 32% to 50% in the same timeframe.<\/p>\n<p>In data protection too, the cloudward trend is visible, with 81% of respondents anticipating use of cloud-based backup as a service for some servers in the next two years.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside that, those questioned reported that 56% of their production data would reside in the cloud at some point during its lifecycle. Surprisingly perhaps, tape is also an enduring location for corporate data, with 42% reporting theirs spends some time in its life on the medium.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"DigDeeperSplash\">\n<h4>\n\t\t\t<i data-icon=\"m\"><\/i>Read more on Disaster recovery<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a id=\"DigDeeperItem-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techtarget.com\/searchsecurity\/news\/252527257\/Moreno-Valley-school-system-shores-up-ransomware-defenses\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/certification_g908952854_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/certification_g908952854_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg 960w,https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/certification_g908952854.jpg 1280w\" alt ><\/p>\n<h5>Moreno Valley school system shores up ransomware defenses<\/h5>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/waldman_arielle.jpg\" alt=\"ArielleWaldman\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><span>By: <span>Arielle\u00a0Waldman<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"DigDeeperItem-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techtarget.com\/searchsecurity\/feature\/Enterprise-ransomware-preparedness-improving-but-still-lacking\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/ransom_g1312360431_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/ransom_g1312360431_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg 960w,https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/ransom_g1312360431.jpg 1280w\" alt ><\/p>\n<h5>Enterprise ransomware preparedness improving but still lacking<\/h5>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineImages\/johnson_kyle.jpg\" alt=\"KyleJohnson\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><span>By: <span>Kyle\u00a0Johnson<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"DigDeeperItem-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252525466\/UK-suffers-third-highest-number-of-ransomware-attacks-globally\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/visuals\/German\/article\/ransomware-attack-computer-adobe_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/visuals\/German\/article\/ransomware-attack-computer-adobe_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg 960w,https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/visuals\/German\/article\/ransomware-attack-computer-adobe.jpg 1280w\" alt ><\/p>\n<h5>UK suffers third highest number of ransomware attacks globally<\/h5>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/computerweekly\/Sebastian-Klovig-Skelton-CW-contributor.jpg\" alt=\"SebastianKlovig Skelton\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><span>By: <span>Sebastian\u00a0Klovig Skelton<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"DigDeeperItem-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techtarget.com\/searchsecurity\/opinion\/Data-security-as-a-layer-in-defense-in-depth-against-ransomware\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/security_a296619547_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/security_a296619547_searchsitetablet_520X173.jpg 960w,https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/onlineimages\/security_a296619547.jpg 1280w\" alt ><\/p>\n<h5>Data security as a layer in defense in depth against ransomware<\/h5>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ttgtmedia.com\/rms\/jack-poller_150.jpg\" alt=\"JackPoller\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><span>By: <span>Jack\u00a0Poller<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252529238\/Veeam-survey-finds-ransomware-blocks-digital-transformation\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><br \/>\n Gaylene Pekar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>jamdesign &#8211;
