Hi guys, my name is Taina Silva.

Today I came here to present a few cybersecurity solutions for our Ceo

a few weeks ago he met with some

leaders and masks

and he found out that they had us, they were victims of a cyber attack and they had

Expenses of up to $300 million dollars and of

course we are trying to avoid this here estelle order

they

a strategy that they had a mask with the replication strategy and the

ransomware was planted by Russia even

though they had service in different locations

in the globe.

They one of the service war,

the victim of this read somewhere and it was able to quickly

multiply for the other service.

Not only malicious cyber attacks can happen

and of course is very expensive for the company.

There's also other disasters that can happen in our

network that we have to be concerned about.

For example hardware, software failures,

any other network disruptions even sabotaged by

employees and natural disasters like earthquakes,

fires, floods, explosions, hurricanes

and things that are completely out of our control.

To start,

I'm presenting to you the options of how what is the approach for our service,

a company as big as still other. We have service

in different parts of the country

and that's the distributed approach.

However,

it's important to understand the difference between the centralizing versus

distributed approach and then you guys can make the decision

to what's better for the company in your opinion.

The centralizing approach is more simple, there is only one server and

all

the networks

run

from through the server

but because it's only one, there is also a higher risk of bottleneck

in case there is an increase of traffic,

even a DDOS attack that was explained before, which is like when,

which is also a way of cyber attack when there's too many

uh income traffic, but it's not regular traffic

and then they confused the network until it

crashes because they cannot support infinite traffic.

That is probably an issue of the centralized network.

Also, there's only one server, so it's a lack of security because

if we have

a natural disaster in one place, that's it, our service,

our network style and that we don't have anywhere else to watch,

it is indeed more,

more affordable and there is less item maintenance since there's only one place

that they distributed approach, on the other hand, is more stable

and the system information is in a large number of notes,

there's different different servers in different places of

the globe and the Attackers would have to

focus in multiple notes at the same time

in order to successfully create a cyber attack,

which is an extra layer of protection that our company definitely needs.

The expression of one node.

For example, if one network is disconnected,

if one server is a victim of a malicious attack

or if there is a natural disaster in one place,

the other services, other service would be able to

keep up with the upcoming traffic and our network wouldn't see any issue

to break up all the data that we mentioned from the services from the servers.

There's two options backup and replication.

The backup is basically making a copy

of files of things that happened through that day and storing

them offsite in case anything happens and the littles are lost.

The goal of the backup history storage for long term

business records in case of an audit or something.

It's not something that you would need right away. That's not the goal of a backup.

Everything in the company should be backed up since desktop Softwares,

every information that is important.

Ah the backups,

they use a snapshot based technology which is very heavy

and drinks the server and takes a very long time.

And the problem is

there's a potential data loss for example,

now it's seven PM.

Everything that we've done throughout this day.

Many things were really important

And the backup is only going to happen at nine PM.

If something happens now, all that information is going to be lost.

And that is the problem with the backup because

there is this delay and with a company as big as ours, we don't have,

this is a liability for us to have data. Not, not, not, not

backed up, not safe.

The downtime. The cost of not having a backup of not having

Our data.

Our information savings somewhere else can range from 10,000 to 5 million for our

and that's why we need to train fast either in backup or replication

and using an automated S. A. S. System

which is a

software as a service

such as Salesforce.

The replication of the hot other hand is copying and moving data between sites.

It's quickie and easy to recover after the outrage.

So after something happened and our system is down for whatever reason,

quickly we can get the data and get the network back in order in a few hours,

which in the backup will take a few days

and they use the near SAN Kronos technology because

it's always on and replicates the data within seconds.

So everything that I'm doing right now is already going to be replicated and saved.

It is expensive to maintain because of course you pay what you

get for and the malicious software can indeed discredit through data,

which is what happened

with mask.

So that's something to consider

for us.

The goal of this meeting is to

find

and have a recovery plan.

We do have a very strong team here at a stale order, a very strong

cybersecurity team

and

those are the keys of a recovery plan.

We needed to determine the recovery, our facts, for example, R T O,

which is which is the time.

How much time do we need

after

out age to have our system back home? How much time can our network be down?

It's one server.

How much time can that's a wrap it down

because we still have another 10 service throughout the world

or we only have a centralized server that needs

to be back up and running within an hour

and every hour we are losing millions of dollars and the

age of the data from the backup devin aid for example,

as mentioned the backup.

It saves data for long term use.

It's like it's not something that you're going to have for an everyday situation.

On the other hand, the replication

everything is ready

right away.

And how

after a network a network outrage after a natural disaster.

How much

what were age of documents? How

late do we need

To go to be able to go back to our functions normally for example,

if something happened now,

are we going to be okay with having only 2,021 information

or we need all the way back to the 1900s.

Also part of the recovery plan is to know

how to test and update regularly our networks,

we have to test, we have to check for more words, any kind of viruses,

any suspicious activity

and update that with new technologies regularly.

We have to stay flexible because sometimes we

feel like the replication strategy works great.

But then for other things that backup would be more, it would make more sense.

And that's why it's necessary to stay flexible because

there's no one answer if it's all we have to go

and try and and find what's gonna be best for our company

management procedures because our management,

you guys the leadership needed to know and

have procedures to when there's a disaster,

when it's going to be

what things are going to happen.

That are gonna lead to us saying it is a disaster declaration,

this network is off, this is a problem. We have to take steps a.

B C in order to address it

and that it's all included in effective staff communication.

It's very important that management and staff are

all communicating and we have a safe and healthy

organization environment,

the data center locations. It's very

it's key to find the right locations for our data centers for our servers

because

we are thinking about natural disasters,

things that can happen in and out of our control, how our I. T.

Team can can get to this company,

how far it's gonna how far the center is going to be from our offices.

This is all very important to think and it's all part of our recovery plan

and it's also important and necessary to consider the cloud backup backup

in addition to the data centers and to having physical

service and physical servers in different parts of the world.

It's important to have data

in the cloud. However, because that can be accessed

anywhere. You just need a computer and network access

and we use the s a s platform which can be

as I measured before the Salesforce or even Microsoft office.

And my final thoughts because I'm not trying to make this very long,

I recommended the distributed approach

that we use the replication to save our data just because it's

instant and it's important to not risk a potential loss of data.

And also in addition today

many

that data service data service in different parts

of the globe is important to have the cloud

backup as well

and

um

which can summarize it always,

organizational awareness is important to train our employees with

cyber security to prevent cyberattacks to use our I.

T. Team that must be aligned and block any

websites that are not trusted

um

recommend and limited the access to only a few websites that are

related to what we need for our company and for our work.

And block email and always sends signals when there's something

wrong or suspicious in any computers from our network.

Thank you so much and I really hope that was helpful. Thank you. Bye bye.
