Silicon Valley Insider Host Keith Koo is joined by guest Brian Reagan, Chief Marketing Officer of Andreessen-Horowitz backed data management company Actifio. In light of the General Data Protection Regulation enforcement starting on May 25th, 2018 in the EU and that the USA is considering similar regulatory oversight of data privacy and management; this show focuses on how companies can keep themselves with data privacy, security and resiliency (back up and disaster recovery). The show discusses the ongoing impact of the Facebook / Cambridge Analytica scandal as well as how the City of Atlanta Georgia could have used a layer defense with companies like Actifio in having the ability to restore their data after their SamSam ransomware attack.

Find out how a planned approach to data management and/or moving to cloud technologies can  be done efficiently and effectivley saving you and your company hard and soft costs while reducing your risk from cyber attacks and unplanned disasters.

The show dives deep into what today's companies need to be thinking about in terms of the complexity of managing their data. Keith mentions how 10+ copies of data used to be a big number with lots of cost and overhead and how today it's common to have 15-20 copies plus tools, applications that are all generating data.

As in a previous show "Is Moving to the Cloud safer?" https://omny.fm/shows/the-silicon-valley-insider-show/is-moving-to-the-cloud-safer-11-10-17

Moving to the cloud is not always safer if the technology and business teams do not underestand all the implications of adopting cloud technology. 

If you need help in determining if moving to the cloud is the right decision for your company, or for more information regarding Guardian Insight Group, Actifio or any of the topics discussed on the show, please email info@svin.biz
