This post is going to describe a POC of a backup method via a datadiode.
Why:
To prevent ransomware destroying or altering backups.
Ransomware often tries to destroy data that is stored on devices that are connected to the victim computer. Ie. the backup drive.
By using a datadiode the data thats stored behind the datadiode can not be directly accessed or destroyed.
NB. The destroyed data can still make it into the backups, but the older data in the backup cycle is still intact an can not be altered from the victim computer</description></item></channel></rss>
