Rimage CEO Chris Rence Connects Covid-19 and Cyber Attack Pandemics in New Book

Rence’s book, now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, draws parallels between cyber and biological pandemics and outlines the necessary precautions to avoid becoming the victim of a cybercrime

MINNEAPOLIS — September 15, 2022 — With major data breaches in the news nearly every day, it’s clear that companies and individuals must take steps to ameliorate cyber attacks. That’s the message in World War D: The Intersection of Cyber and Biological Pandemic, the highly anticipated new book by Rimage CEO Chris Rence, a long-time C-suite leader in the data security space.

The book, available now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, makes the fascinating argument that the Covid-19 biological pandemic and the cyber attack pandemic share many characteristics. For example, a critical way individuals can protect themselves from these pandemics is to engage in hygiene practices, whether that means hand-washing for Covid-19, or data hygiene practices like two-step login verification.

“Cyberattacks and the cost of breaches are increasing and there is no end in sight. That means your most valuable assets – personal and corporate data – are at constant risk of attack,” says Rence. “My new book is intended to help individuals and companies navigate the many pitfalls that could compromise your data security.”

Rimage’s portfolio includes:

• Defense in Layers (DIL): Rimage’s solutions provide a Defense in Layers (DIL) approach to cyber security. Malware, ransomware, insider threats … because the list of potential cyber security threats continues to grow, most experts agree it’s not a matter of if your company will suffer from a cyber attack, it’s a matter of when. Insurance companies are taking note: they are toughening their underwriting standards and charging more for cyber liability insurance. In an age when no two threats are exactly alike, organizations need to have the tools to store critical assets offline where they can’t be altered, so they can quickly recover from disaster.

• Ingest: As their storage strategies and requirements change, organizations need to be able to automate their processes. Users can save valuable space by reading data from already-written optical discs, then moving it to other forms of storage and media. Rimage provides solutions that will assist companies as they pivot to newer forms of technology with a seamless integration to forward-looking media technologies.

• RX400: Rimage’s latest release which provides WORM technology to the healthcare and law enforcement verticals. As organizations that require removable data management phase out optical media, the RX400 is primed to step in to fill the need for secure, offline data management that’s compatible with today’s technology.

• Evidence Disc Systems (EDS): Developed for law enforcement, EDS is the industry’s highest-performing, most reliable solution for automatically processing evidence. This platform will provide a springboard for greater data distribution through open access to new markets and technology.

• 2450: The Rimage 2450 system is a high-performance, front-office solution for automated patient CD/DVD production. With 2450, medical imaging workflow is a fully automated and intelligent in-house robotic solution with a low long-term cost of ownership.

Rimage’s best-in-class solutions enable society’s critical industries like healthcare, government, and law enforcement to work toward solving some of the most pressing problems facing our world today.
