This episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool have a robust conversation with W. Curtis Preston, (on Twitter as W. Curtis Preston), the Chief Technical Evangelist with Druva, Inc.. In this conversation, Mr. Backup himself, explains the difference between backups and archives, reminiscences about tape backups, and provides insight on how backups relate to privacy.

As part of this, they discuss guidance from several data protection authorities in Europe on backups (Danish, French, UK) (or at least an acknowledgement of the difficulties of backups) and the ever-beloved right to deletion. Join us to hear his personal experiences and recommendations related to ransomware, restoration, and more. Also, he has published four O’Reilly books, the latest one - Modern Data Protection- available for free as an ebook on Druva’s website.
