I think it seems quite reasonable. We're moving into a world where nothing can be taken at face value. Fake news, fake images, fake videos and possibly now fake capabilities. The
Dunning–Kruger effect of AI.

I think we all want to see products that support real-life environments. Work is complex and organizational history, we are bound to have many places we keep and process data. Vendors who build products for a limited set of solutions will fall behind.

#Commvault It's interesting that AI is such a huge attack surface. You can poison the model or leverage it as a tool for gathering information OR carrying out the attack itself. You have to be prepared to protect all facets of it.

I concur with the speakers that we must separate DR from Cyber Resilience. In our TrendScape for Data Protection, we go as far as distinguishing Operational Disaster Recovery and Cyber Resiliency. The first has no security implications, while the second does.

"Realistically, the MTCR is typically four months" according to Darren. This is light years away if you compare to usual RPO/RTO metrics (typically in the range of hours).
Imagine a business crippled for 4 months. Or read the news.

Unless you have a cleanroom recovery solution, the data cleanup process after a cyber attack is likely to be very tedious and lengthy, assuming that there is even something left to recover from, without any guarantee about data health.

MTCR = Mean Time to Clean Recovery. Commvault has been thinking about a metric that correlates to business value.
It's not that RPO/RTO are bad, but they typically assume the time and point where data gets recovered, irrespective of its cleanliness.
