You've found The Backup Wrap-up, your go-to podcast for all things backup, recovery, and cyber-recovery. In this episode, we tackle one of the scariest threats out there - ransomware targeting VMware ESXi environments. I'm joined by Prasanna Malaiyandi and our special guest Melissa Palmer, also known as @vmiss, who's an independent technology analyst and ransomware resiliency architect. We get into why virtualization environments are such juicy targets for attackers, how they're specifically going after vCenter and ESXi hosts, and why your backup strategy is probably missing some critical components. If you've got a virtualized environment, you need to listen to this. Melissa brings her unique perspective from both the virtualization and security worlds to help you protect your most critical infrastructure.
