It also introduces MSP Direct Connect to remove client-side port changes, Real-Time Replication for VMware with automated IO Filter and Journal Service installation, and granular folder- and volume-level backups for Windows and Linux physical machines with encryption, immutability and air-gapping options.

Global Payments: Resilient Scale Architecture with Cloud SQL

☁️ Global Payments partnered with Google Cloud to design a multi-region, highly available database architecture using Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus. The deployment spans three regions with zonal replication, read replicas, cascading replication, and Cloud SQL Auth Proxy integration to support low-latency reads and rapid failover. This configuration yields near-zero planned downtime, sub-minute RTO and zero RPO for Tier 1 workloads, while meeting PCI DSS, GDPR, and NIST requirements.

Six steps for disaster recovery and business continuity

🔒 Modernize disaster recovery and continuity with six practical steps for CISOs. Secure executive funding and form a cross-functional team, map risks and locate data across cloud, SaaS, OT, and edge devices, and conduct a Business Impact Analysis to define a Minimal Viable Business (MVB). Evolve backups to 3-2-1-1-0 with immutable or air-gapped copies, adopt BaaS/DRaaS and AI-driven tools for discovery and autonomous backups, and run realistic, gamified tests followed by post-mortems.

Modern Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Basics

🛡️ Modern disaster recovery and business continuity require a ground-up rebuild to address distributed data, evolving cyberthreats, climate-driven disruptions, and strict breach-reporting obligations. Key elements include executive sponsorship, standing interdisciplinary teams, AI-assisted discovery and classification, continuous and immutable backups aligned with a 3-2-1-1-0 approach, and the design of a minimum viable business to restore core functions. Frequent, gamified tabletop exercises and automated validation complete a resilient program.
