Oracle positions trusted data resiliency as ransomware defense anchor

Oracle's Ashish Ray told theCUBE trusted recovery, validated backups and immutable data anchor its ransomware defense.

Ray told Dave Vellante that data resiliency for enterprises ultimately comes down to the ability for useful work to continue. He described Oracle's resilient data architecture as a combination of Oracle Exadata, built-in security offered by Oracle AI Database, and data protection technologies enabled by Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance.

Ray said ransomware attacks have forced Oracle to protect production systems and backup systems. He said backup systems must be separate, with different levels of control, ownership and network segregation, and that immutable backups and data encryption must be applied at the same time. Those technologies come together in Oracle's resilient data architecture, he said.

A central requirement is that resilience be trusted, Ray said. He told theCUBE that recovery must bring data back to a known valid transactional state that leads to business outcomes. Oracle's architecture can mark that state at a granular point and return to it without data loss, which Ray described as the essence of trusted data resilience.

Oracle's Recovery Appliance supports that precision by validating backup integrity as data is ingested and continuously checking recoverability, the report said. That process is intended to identify corruption or missing recovery data before an enterprise needs to restore. Ray said data that is backed up but cannot be validated is “Schrödinger's data.” He said companies cannot assume a backup is usable because underlying validation checks or corruption may mean the data is compromised when a restore is attempted.

The discussion was part of Oracle's event on escalating AI cyberattacks and data security. TheCUBE is a paid media partner for the event, and neither Oracle, the sponsor of theCUBE's event coverage, nor other sponsors have editorial control over content on theCUBE or SiliconANGLE, according to the disclosure accompanying the interview.
