    Checklist for Cybersecurity


    Threat Protection

    Protect your environment from cyberthreats


    Cyberthreats, specifically ransomware, continue to be a top risk and top of mind for our customers. It is a challenge for all of us.
    We must protect against threats, monitor our environment, and stay recovery ready. To help ensure you are covered, please review
    these best practices to protect your data against a cybersecurity event.

    Six tips for greater cybersecurity threat protection and recovery


    As of March 21, 2022, The White House is reporting increased intelligence on potential cyberthreat activity from Russia. The White
    House Fact Sheet, Act Now to Protect Against Potential Cyberattacks, details cybersecurity best practices, including “ensuring you
    have offline backups beyond the reach of malicious actors.”
    The risks and rewards of defending against a cyberattack are significant to your organization and career. Done poorly, it results
    in lost data, revenue, and credibility. Done correctly, it can lead to operations being successfully restored quickly and greater
    recognition for a job well done. To help you better protect your data against a cybersecurity event, here are six tips you can
    easily implement.

    1 Verify your cybersecurity recovery and disaster recovery runbooks are up-to-date.

    Protecting against external threats requires diligence and constant attention to detail. Reviewing your Cybersecurity and
    Disaster Recovery Runbooks validates your recovery and verifies implementation of previous recommendations and that no
    adverse changes have occurred since the last review.

    2 Segment your networks to prevent lateral movements.

    Don’t give malware unlimited access within your network. Preserve your backups in isolated locations to prevent lateral
    movement and contain potential threats

    3 Implement multifactor authentication.

    The authentication process requires each user to have a unique set of criteria for gaining access. Enabling multifactor
    authentication methods makes it highly unlikely that a valid user account can be impersonated.

    4 Monitor your data protection environment.

    Utilize the security dashboard to identify, assess, mitigate, and monitor security controls within the Commvault or Metallic
    environment. The dashboard will identify controls available in the environment, provide scoring and remarks to assess risks
    properly, continuously monitor your security posture, and offer insights to take appropriate actions.

    5 Perform regular backups with immutability.

    Consider increasing the frequency of backups and expanding your data protection to a 3-2-1 backup strategy; 3 copies of
    your data, on 2 different media types, with a copy offsite and preferably air-gapped. Other essential data protection tools
    include encryption, write once, read many (WORM), and strict access controls.

    6 Test and update your recovery plans.

    Verify your recovery procedures and technologies will work as needed by testing. Perform frequent tests to confirm you can
    meet the SLAs you have defined for critical and high-priority data and applications. Update your Runbook based on any
    updates or changes from the test results.

    Additional cybersecurity threat protection tips


    • Know your data to protect your data
    Identify business-critical and sensitive data across your environment and data silos. Then determine if the data are exposed to
    vulnerabilities. You can efficiently remediate these risks using data insights by removing, moving, or securing this exposed data.

    • Install antivirus and antimalware protection


    Use antivirus software with active monitoring designed to thwart advanced malware attacks. Verify you are using the latest
    release for maximum protection.

    • Ensure patches are up-to-date and stay current


    When leveraging installed solutions, keep software, firmware, and applications up to date to reduce the risk of cyberthreats
    exploiting common vulnerabilities.

    • Conduct employee security training


    Educate employees on avoiding cyberthreats and detecting phishing campaigns, suspicious websites, and other
    scams. Employees are critical to a good defense. Despite their best intentions, employees are still a leading cause of
    malware propagation.

    Commvault understands that a cybersecurity attack or other disaster means all eyes are focused on the IT organization.
    We are here to help if you have questions or need assistance. A few areas are:
    • Identifying your business’s critical and sensitive data
    • Quickly protect applications and workloads with our SaaS data protection offerings
    • Easily implement an extra layer of protection in the cloud with Metallic
    • Streamlining your recovery operations or testing your SLAs

    If you need guidance on enabling any of the security features mentioned above, please contact Commvault Customer Support or
    Metallic Customer Support for additional assistance.
