<p>Cyber security attacks are everywhere, and they're definitely going after what you have running in your favorite hyperscaler. Today we are joined by Paul Hadgy, CEO of Horangi Security, a cyber security company specializing in securing your cloud infrastructure.  We talk about a number of things, but at one point, Mr. Backup asked him what the thought was the five biggest security mistakes people make when building out their cloud infrastructure.  He gave us a pretty good list, and then talked about how they're able to secure it AND make sure you're properly utilizing it. (They can tell you resources you're paying for that you shouldn't be!) Great interview with Paul.</p>

Top 5 security mistakes you're making in the cloud

Formerly known as "Restore it All," The Backup Wrap-up podcast turns unappreciated backup admins into cyber recovery heroes. After a brief analysis of backup-related news, each episode dives deep into one topic that you can use to better protect your organization from data loss, be it from accidents, disasters, or ransomware.  

The Backup Wrap-up is hosted by W. Curtis Preston (Mr. Backup) and his co-host Prasanna Malaiyandi. Curtis' passion for backups began over 30 years ago when his employer, a $35B bank, lost its purchasing database – and the backups he was in charge of were worthless. After miraculously not being fired, he resolved to learn everything he could about a topic most people try to get away from.  His co-host, Prasanna, saw similar tragedies from the vendor side of the house and also wanted to do whatever he could to stop that from happening to others.

A particular focus lately has been the scourge of ransomware that is plaguing IT organizations across the globe.  That's why in addition to backup and disaster recovery, we also touch on information security techniques you can use to protect your backup systems from ransomware.  If you'd like to go from being unappreciated to being a cyber recovery hero, this is the podcast for you.
