In addition to adopting CIA principles, organizations should consider applying a multi-layered approach for protecting and securing infrastructure and data at the edge. This makes data on the edge much more vulnerable, calling for hardened solutions to help ensure the physical security of edge application infrastructure. Application layerOnce you get to the application layer, data protection looks a lot like traditional data center security. Recovering from the inevitableWhile CIA and taking a layered approach to edge protection can greatly mitigate risk, successful cyberattacks are inevitable. Backup-as-a-serviceOrganizations can address edge data protection and cybersecurity challenges head-on by deploying and managing holistic modern data protection solutions on-premises, at the edge and in the cloud or by leveraging Backup as-a-Service (BaaS) solutions.
