Panzura Detect and Rescue Hero

Early detection slashes response and recovery times

Even the fastest recovery takes time and attention. Threat Detection for CloudFS uses sophisticated machine learning to understand what’s normal in your environment, so it can instantly spot — and stop — what’s not.

Data Exfiltration
Detects when large volumes of data are being accessed or copied in patterns that are unusual for a specific user.

Data Destruction
Recognizes suspicious damaging behavior, like mass deletions, that signal an active ransomware attack.

Unusual Behavior
Flags erratic access patterns, bulk file creation, or after-hours activity that doesn’t match established user profiles.

Ransomware
Catches known and unknown ransomware based on signatures, encryption, and suspicious file behaviors.

How it works: the CloudFS AI advantage

Unlike generic security tools, Panzura Threat Detection is trained specifically on your unique CloudFS environment. It creates a behavioral fingerprint for every user, team, and department, dramatically reducing false positives and the "alert fatigue" that plagues most IT teams.

When a threat is detected, the platform doesn't just send an alert — it takes immediate action. Panzura Threat Detection can automatically log the incident, notify administrators, and instantly disable compromised accounts based on the threat level. This rapid, automated response can be measured in seconds, not hours, stopping attacks in their tracks.

Multi-layered defense

Panzura Threat Detection works in concert with CloudFS's industry-leading data resilience features to create a layered "defense in depth" strategy.

AI-powered early detection: Threat detection capabilities proactively identify and stop malicious behavior in real time, before a full-scale attack can be launched.

Immutable restore points: Immutable data and snapshots taken every 60 seconds ensure that your data and recovery points cannot be deleted or corrupted by attackers.

This combination of proactive detection and reactive protection gives you the confidence that your data is always safe, accessible, and recoverable.

Zero-touch implementation, zero-compromise security

Activating Panzura Threat Detection is seamless for CloudFS customers. There are no infrastructure changes, no user disruption, and no complex configurations needed. The system begins learning your environment's unique behavioral patterns right away, continuously refining its models for ever-increasing accuracy.

It's a simple, elegant solution that consolidates advanced security into your core file platform, eliminating the need for separate, expensive security tools and reducing administrative overhead.

Panzura Threat Detection for CloudFS: the canary in the coal mine

File systems are often the first place attackers go to do their damage. By detecting malicious behavior at the file system level, CloudFS catches threats at their earliest stage — before they can spread laterally across your network to databases, servers, or applications.

With Panzura Threat Detection, what could have been a catastrophic breach becomes a minor security incident. It's the definitive solution for preventing data loss and operational disruption.
