Panzura CloudFS 8
CloudFS transforms complex, multicomponent, and often multi-vendor environments into a simplified data management solution, while addressing cost reduction, risk mitigation, and operational complexity.
CloudFS makes active data immutable, with rapid restoration of pristine data without losing a byte. But, when ransomware strikes and data is being damaged, time is the enemy. Every minute an attack runs is a minute that disrupts the organization. The results can be catastrophic.
Panzura Detect and Rescue is a CloudFS extension that automatically detects suspicious file activity and stops the spread before it takes hold.
Cyber attacks, especially those designed to damage data, seem inevitable. Worse yet, it's common for organizations to fail to detect attacks for months. The statistics are sobering. It's clear that many organizations cannot recover pristine data as quickly as they need to.
Detect and Rescue lets you get proactive, minimize disruption, and maintain business continuity. The CloudFS hybrid cloud file platform already delivers a sub-60 global recovery point objective for pristine data. With near real-time ransomware detection, recovery time objective can also be as little as minutes.
Ransomware runs in real time, so scanning backups just isn't fast enough. By then, the damage is done and you're facing a major recovery effort. With Detect and Rescue on CloudFS, file activity is monitored in real time. It watches for normal, reacts to anomalies, and shuts down attacks at the source.
With CloudFS, restoring pristine data by reverting to the last clean snapshot is lightning fast. But, ransomware attacks don't run in a straight line, which means it can take longer to understand which files and folders have been affected than to do the restoration.
That's why Detect and Rescue stops attacks in near real time, then tells you exactly where the damage is and the user accounts affected.
Data has never been more valuable, or more vulnerable. That's why the first place a ransomware attack can be detected is often within files, before it spreads to other systems.
Detect and Rescue on CloudFS isn't just about minimizing disruption related to data access. Instead, it's an AI-powered detection system that shuts down damage within the hybrid cloud file platform and alerts organizations to what's about to become a wider attack.
Insurance costs keep rising and comprehensive coverage is harder to secure if you're not in a strong position. With CloudFS and Detect and Rescue, your data is resilient, your data infrastructure is engineered for business continuity, and you're well placed for insurance negotiations.
Improve detection accuracy. Your CloudFS environment and usage is unique. Because Detect and Rescue is trained on your environment, you'll get more accurate anomaly detection for better, faster alerting.
Empower your frontline IT admins to manage, monitor, and share updates on suspicious activity.
Speed SMS and / or email notifications within minutes, automatically, to your choice of recipients.
Save processing resources and costs. Our innovative monitoring method eliminates constant scanning on the node.
Get the help you need to optimize resilience before an attack, and in recovery. You don't have to go it alone.
Give security and audit teams the info they need, fast. We preserve the full history of alerts and make it easy to share.
Don't be complacent. Even though CloudFS is immutable and the Panzura Data Management Platform is proven, cybercriminals can cost you time recovering from attacks. You'll get near real-time detection and expert help with Detect and Rescue. When ransomware strikes, you'll know fast, and won't have to go it alone. The Panzura Data Management Platform makes it all possible.
