This document discusses the importance of properly protecting unstructured data and compares current practices for protecting structured data versus unstructured data. It notes that unstructured data sets are often the largest in terms of capacity but are typically only backed up once per night. This leaves them vulnerable, especially to ransomware attacks. The document advocates for using a purpose-built solution for unstructured data protection that uses snapshot-like data capture for granularity and content search abilities while leveraging object storage or public clouds for long-term retention and instant restore capabilities. It promotes the Aparavi File Protect & Insight solution.
