"Many companies have distributed their data to a variety of storage locations and, as the fines would show, are having challenges in properly managing their archipelago of proprietary, siloed islands of data. No doubt, IT teams spend significant time and resources tackling governance, archiving, and compliance issues. This distorted image causes a number of glaring problems that grow with the amount of data and the number of regulations. In this way, it is almost impossible to see whether data is redundant, whether critical personal data is stored in risky locations, or whether it has been overlooked in the backup plan.”

“A company can attempt to get these data islands under control with processes and point-product solutions, but may face high infrastructure and operating costs, a lack of integration between products, and increasingly complex architectures. And it is questionable whether all data is protected from ransomware in such a fragmented environment and whether important tasks such as rapid recovery can be implemented in the required time and quality to keep businesses up and running. Companies therefore need to break away from the archipelago and look for a next-gen approach to data management that enables them to improve data compliance, advance security, remove data silos, and reduce complexity.”
