Disaster Recovery and Automated Offsite Backups: Implementing the 3-2-1 Backup Rule with Wasabi and AWS

The Indispensable 3-2-1 Backup Rule

To survive modern ransomware variants that intentionally seek out and delete network backups, every organization must enforce the proven 3-2-1 framework:

1. Maintain at least 3 total copies of your business data.
2. Store backups on 2 different physical media types (e.g. local NVMe/NAS array and cloud storage).
3. Keep at least 1 copy completely offsite in a geographically separated data center with Object Lock (Immutability) enabled so backups cannot be deleted or overwritten for a set retention window.
