Resiliency in the Hybrid Multicloud era

Share this post:

When one thinks Digital Transformation, one can imagine the vastness & variety of projects that can be subsumed under that phrase. From a technology standpoint, it not only involves dramatic changes in terms of adoption of new emerging technologies like IoT, Blockchain but the automation of traditional processes and systems. Quintessential to such change is the migration to cloud.

While this move to the cloud can be within a private setup or in the public space; In today’s enterprise environments, there is no scope to tolerate disrupted availability of infrastructure, network, security and performance due to the advancements in cloud technologies. However, this doesn’t simply happen on its own and requires crafting of a purposeful cyber resilience strategy that is regularly tested and upgraded.

Creating a successful business resiliency strategy requires expertise and tools that are designed for hybrid multicloud IT environments. IBM Cyber Resilience Lifecycle Program includes the following steps:

• IDENTIFY risks and vulnerabilities
• PROTECT your applications and data
• DETECT data corruption and configuration anomalies
• RESPOND to changes in configuration and data
• RECOVER access to critical applications and data

In a world where the risks are evolving by the day, including the growing threat of cyberattacks, companies must move from a traditional/manual recovery approach to an automated and software-defined resiliency approach.
