Aftab Alam, Chief Product Officer at Arcserve, states: “As we head into the Cybersecurity Awareness Month and the holiday shopping season that follows, retailers can’t afford to be caught off guard.

Data resilience isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’; it’s a non-negotiable business requirement with clear, measurable objectives. And don’t wait for a crisis to test your recovery protocols; make it a regular practice, akin to a fire drill. By taking these steps, retailers do more than protect their bottom line – they retain the trust of their customers.”
Arcserve recommends three immediate steps for retail organizations to be better prepared:
