Save 30% on EC2 Protection and Get Ransomware Protection, Guaranteed
Maybe it’s the many 5 star reviews we receive, or the 87% NPS score we’ve earned that has us pumped up. Or maybe it’s the TCO analysis that ESG has done on Clumio’s offerings (join our upcoming webinar featured below!) that gives us high confidence. It’s probably a combination of those plus our close partnership with AWS that leads us to say – we GUARANTEE that Clumio can save you at least 30% on your existing EC2 data protection costs. Schedule a customized analysis today.
Build vs. Buy: The Hidden Costs of DIY Data Protection
Managing effective data protection in AWS is increasingly challenging, especially as data volume grows, data sources expand, and budgets tighten. It’s tempting to build your own solution for customization and control. But it’s important to weigh the pros and cons of a DIY approach versus leveraging a purpose-built solution, including the final TCO when all the costs are considered. Join ESG Economic Validation Analyst Nathan McAfee and Clumio Director of Technical Strategy Ryan Smith as they discuss ESG’s findings on the value of protecting data and uncover some key considerations when making the decision to build vs buy.
Shields Health Invests in Building Their Business, Not Their Backup
When Shields Health selected Converge as their AWS migration partner, they needed to ensure their workloads were protected from ransomware and accidental deletions. They quickly recognized the need for a data protection solution that offered air-gapped and immutable backups and the agility of cross-region recovery. Join key decision makers from Shields Health, Clumio and Converge as they share insights on making the move to the cloud, the criticality of protecting your data, and how to decide on buy vs build for your business.
Data Protection and SOC 2
What is SOC 2 compliance and why does it matter? Our VP of Cloud Security breaks down the key aspects related to data protection in the criteria on which SOC 2 is based, covering Common Criteria, Availability, and Confidentiality sections.
What We’re Reading
CRN’s article on The 10 Biggest Data Breaches Of 2022 (So Far) is sobering, especially their statistic that the average payment for ransomware attacks has increased by 71 percent from last year. It’s more important than ever to have a fast recovery plan.
Quote of the Month
“The biggest benefit to our end customers has been [meeting] our SLAs by minimizing recovery time and improving our resiliency, ensuring we’re able to meet our obligations even faster than we otherwise could if we built a solution ourselves.”
