Keeping all the data on the ship encrypted might help slow down the weapon. Also another idea would be perhaps having the ship constantly uploading its entire database to some kind of backup server ship standing off at a distance from the battle, so that once the weapon hits, the targeted ship can just immediately do a full data wipe and then download everything again from the server ship. Of course, all of that would require extremely powerful supercomputers to make practical in a battle, but that's just another thing you could decide to research I guess.
