By replicating and hosting data, infrastructure, and applications off-site, these services make it possible to restore critical operations quickly without needing traditional, hardware-heavy setups. Organizations use DRaaS solutions to reduce downtime, preserve data integrity, and maintain business continuity, all while meeting their recovery point (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO).

February 25, 2025

Data breaches in the financial sector are happening more frequently, and the damage they cause is growing. In 2024 alone, the average cost of a data breach in the financial industry reached a staggering $4.88 million. This number highlights how vulnerable banks are to cyberattacks.

This makes them attractive targets for cybercriminals seeking financial gain or disruption. Protecting this data is not just about preventing theft but about preserving customer trust and meeting strict compliance standards. Adopting data protection best practices is essential for banks. These measures protect sensitive data and support regulatory compliance and business continuity. Understanding the Challenges in Banking Data Protection The digital transformation of banking has introduced new challenges in data security. These include:  Fragmentation of Data Across Multi-Cloud Environments Today’s banks operate in highly complex IT environments. Data is scattered across on-premises servers, private clouds, public clouds, and various third-party systems. This fragmentation makes it harder to monitor data access and enforce security controls.
