Good data center governance provides a foundation for effective data center cybersecurity. How should data center leaders structure an approach that optimizes the resources needed to safeguard data centers?
Only half of data center operators rate their cyber resiliency assessments as effective, despite three in four operators experiencing a recent cyber incident.
Identifying the extent of security requirements is a critical first step in building a viable data center cybersecurity strategy. Data center managers should identify and answer essential questions to implement an effective playbook.
Operators often resist giving third parties access to OT data to limit vulnerabilities. Nevertheless, some colocation customers require this access - as will emerging AI tools - but the OT air-gap should not be bridged lightly.
Data center managers are squeezed between complexity arising from digital innovation and the need for secure and reliable service delivery. Is it possible to minimize risk while enabling business innovation?
Identifying the extent of security requirements is a critical first step in building a viable data center cybersecurity strategy. Data center managers should identify and answer essential questions to implement an effective playbook.
Most cyberattacks are sudden and target financial gain. Attacks on data centers and critical infrastructure can be very different. State-sponsored hackers use varied and sophisticated tactics in support of geopolitical goals.
Cyberattacks on operational technology (OT) systems are rising, and OT failure could be catastrophic for data centers. Managers need to understand the nature of the threat and the defense options to protect their critical environments.
Avoiding digital infrastructure failures remains paramount for data center owners and operators. This report analyzes recent Uptime Institute data on IT and data center outage trends: their causes, costs and consequences.
Organizations develop strict security policies and practices to reduce exposure to cyberattacks. An ineffective policy only increases the cyber risk both to the data center and across IT in general.
Operators of data centers in the UK have voiced concerns over the proposed resiliency and cybersecurity regulations that are aimed specifically at providers of colocation and "co-hosting" services.
The surface area for cyberattacks on IT systems and operational technology environments in data centers has expanded exponentially. In this on-demand webinar, you will learn what you need to do to protect your critical infrastructure.
Results from the Uptime Institute Data Center Security Survey 2023 highlight the strategies used by organizations to prevent and respond to cyber-threats.
Regulatory concerns over security, resiliency and energy use have led to a wave of new and updated requirements for data centers. Organizations are beginning to invest more to achieve compliance.
With ever-increasing critical digital workloads being processed and stored by third parties, regulators are extending their oversight to reach deeper into the digital supply chain in the financial system.
