Storage Optimisation

Storage isn’t just an infrastructure problem anymore; it’s a massive security vector.

The issue our teams face is that unoptimised storage quickly becomes a breeding ground for dark data, visibility gaps, and bloated cloud consumption costs. When unstructured data accumulates across isolated environments, securing it effectively becomes nearly impossible. 

In this section, our peers share real-world practices for aligning storage efficiency with data protection. We look at how teams use intelligent data lifecycle management to minimise their attack surface, isolate high-value backups, and implement secure data reduction techniques, all while keeping storage costs sustainable and infrastructure responsive under heavy workloads.
