EVERY 2-3 SECONDS A RANSOMWARE ATTACK STRIKES ANOTHER BUSINESS.
When ransomware strikes
Hackers encrypt an organization’s data, making that data inaccessible. To obtain the encryption key, the victim pays a ransom, often in a hard-to-trace crypto-currency such as Bitcoin.
Malware Defences Ineffective
Traditional malware defences often priove ineffective as ransomware works by encrypting the user’s data rendering the source data and backup data useless.
Best Line of Defence is Backup
Attacks can strike even the best-prepared, making it essential to mitigate the effects of a successful breach. However, the best line of defence is at the storage layer, where the data is written.
The Solution
The solution includes S3 Object Lock, a feature that protects data at the storage system level. With Object Lock, data cannot be deleted or changed for a set period of time. Because it cannot be changed, ransomware cannot encrypt it. Data is protected and ransomware is kept out.
RANSOMWARE PROTECTION SOLUTION BASICS.
Object Lock
Object Lock (WORM – Write Once Read Many) protects backup copies from encryption by ransomware. Worm storage puts a retention lock on data so that it can only be written to once and cannot be modified.
Immutable file system
Implementing an immutable file system with underlying WORM storage will make the system watertight from a ransomware protection perspective.
Assured Restore
Fast backup and recovery with local, disk-based storage. Due to the peer-to-peer, distributed storage system, workload is shared across all devices in the cluster. To further ensure fast recovery performance, the solution supports recovery directly from HyperStore without the need to rehydrate an
intermediate storage tier.
Veeam Certified
The storage solution is Veeam certified. Veeam native support for the S3 API via the Cloud Tier enables seamless integration with the HyperStore.
VMware Integrated
The solution integrates and scales seamlessly with VMware Cloud Director via the VMware Object Storage Extension.
