How does this service handle ransomware attacks?
The service stores immutable backups in Google Cloud Storage, meaning the data cannot be altered or deleted by ransomware. This ensures that you always have a clean, application-consistent version of your system to restore during a disaster.
Do I need to write custom scripts to backup my databases with Google Cloud Backup?
