  • On January 31, our team in India traded laptops for paintbrushes and spent the day giving back to their local community. 🖌️ Partnering with Youth For Parivarthan, an NGO working on community development, they rolled up their sleeves for a cleaning and beautification initiative. Together, they cleaned shared community spaces and painted murals of Indian leaders on neighborhood walls. We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who gave their day to make a meaningful impact in their community. https://bit.ly/3Ocv6X1

    “We have backups.” I hear this phrase a lot. And it’s usually said with confidence—right up until it’s tested. Backups are necessary. But they’re not a resilience strategy. A true resilience strategy assumes things will go wrong: ransomware encrypts data, credentials are compromised, insiders make mistakes, systems fail at the worst possible time. When that happens, the real question isn’t whether you have backups—it’s whether you can recover quickly, confidently, and completely. Resilience means knowing: • Your backups are clean, immutable, and recoverable • You can restore at the speed and scale the business requires • Your recovery process is tested, automated, and repeatable • Your data survives not just attacks, but outages, human error, and platform failures If your plan depends on hope, tribal knowledge, or a single admin with a runbook… that’s not resilience. Resilience is a business capability, not an IT checkbox. It’s measured in recovery time, data confidence, and the ability to continue operating when its most important. Backups are the foundation. Resilience is the outcome. #CyberResilience #DataResilience #Backup #Recovery #Ransomware

    I’m more optimistic than ever about what AI can unlock for businesses and their customers. For businesses, AI drives efficiency, cost savings, strategic insight, and competitiveness. For customers, it delivers faster service, more personalized experiences, and often better value. But AI is also changing our risk profiles in subtle and sometimes not-so-subtle ways. Todd Thorsen, our CISO, asked our experts to predict how AI would impact risk profiles in 2026, and they came up with 5 predictions (below), which we published in the blog, Recovery Confidence, Not Just Backups: AI Resilience in 2026: https://lnkd.in/eGwX5Z7K 1. Lower-noise attacks will matter more than high-drama events 2. Resilience is increasingly defined by the integrity of recoverable data 3. Agentic automation changes the shape of access and accountability 4. Training and tuning data becomes a high-value enterprise asset 5. Identity assurance will be pressured by better impersonation at scale In this post, I’ll tackle the first prediction, and over the next few weeks, I’ll dive into each of the others. Prediction 1: Lower-noise attacks will matter more than high drama events Simply put, the threat profile is shifting from loud, obvious attacks to quiet ones that blend into normal operations. AI is helping attackers look legitimate, from using real credentials and familiar tools to highly believable social engineering. This makes attacks harder to spot. In years past, there was most likely a single dramatic event. Now, it will be more subtle, with damage accumulating over time. It’s not enough to just have backups. You need to know if you can trust them. If an attack goes unnoticed long enough, your backups might also contain corrupted data. Your updated priorities should be validating backup integrity, enabling granular point-in-time recovery, strengthening audit trails to reconstruct what happened (and by whom), and conducting regular recovery tests so you can restore quickly and confidently. This leads to number 2 - but that’s the next post.
