    methodology

    Rubrik Zero Labs is committed to providing practical, unbiased intelligence aimed at helping organizations reduce their data security risk. In pursuit of this goal, we have included information from three main sources.

    Rubrik telemetry

    We employed Rubrik telemetry to gain insights into the typical organization's data environment and associated risks.

    It's based on two sources:

    Number of cloud files secured:

    Data covers January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024


    Wakefield research

    We teamed up with Wakefield Research for a study that pulls in fresh viewpoints from both IT and security leaders. These viewpoints augment our Rubrik telemetry data, allowing us to balance the vision of these leaders with the realities they face in the trenches. To remove any chance of bias in the results, no Rubrik clients were part of this dataset.
