Achieving Cyber Resilience with Dell PowerProtect

In today's hyper-connected world, cyber threats are no longer just a possibility-they're an inevitability. Organizations across industries are grappling with increasingly sophisticated attacks that disrupt operations, compromise sensitive data and erode trust. A whopping 88% of organizations expect GenAI to explode data volumes, yet 65% of these same organizations backup less than 50% of their data¹. For business leaders, the stakes couldn't be higher. ​Staying competitive in this volatile environment requires more than just innovation-it demands innovation that's built on a foundation of cyber resilience.

Security is no longer a back-office concern; it's a strategic enabler. Without it, innovation stalls, and businesses are left vulnerable to the growing tide of cyber risks. To thrive, organizations need more than traditional cybersecurity measures-they need a comprehensive approach to cyber resilience. Dell Technologies is at the forefront of this effort, empowering businesses to minimize risk, ensure continuity and move forward with confidence. The latest advancements in the PowerProtect portfolio, including the availability of the Data Domain All-Flash appliance and updates to cyber resilience software, exemplify this commitment.
