LOCAL GOVERNMENTS REALIZE EXAGRID OFFERS EXCEPTIONAL BACKUP STORAGE24 NOV
_BETTER PERFORMANCE, SYSTEM SCALABILITY, AND LOWER TCO AMONG TOP REASONS TO INSTALL EXAGRID_ MARLBOROUGH, MASS., NOVEMBER 24, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — EXAGRID® the industry’s only Tiered Backup Storage solution, today announced that more city and county governments are replacing inline deduplication appliances with ExaGrid’s tiered backup storage, which sits behind more than 25 backup applications and utilities, for improved backup and restore performance, true scalability as data grows and a lower TCO (total cost of ownership). The IT department at the CITY OF KENNEWICK, Washington not only supports various city departments, but also the Bi-County Police Information Network (BiPIN) for Benton County and neighboring Franklin County, to maximize efficiency in sharing information between police departments in the two counties, with 13 entities participating. “For many years, we used Veritas Backup Exec to back up data to Quantum tape drives, and then to Dell EMC Data Domain. One of the major drawbacks of using this solution was the licensing between Backup Exec and Data Domain. We had to purchase additional licensing from both to deduplicate and then to store deduped data, and when we virtualized our environment, more licensing was required for VMware servers and VMDK saves. The licensing situation is very much analogous to buying a car without tires, and it was pretty frustrating. As a city department, we have to be mindful of the budget and it felt like we weren’t getting the best backup coverage for what we were paying,” said MIKE O’BRIEN, the city’s senior system engineer. “ExaGrid’s scale-out architecture is one of its biggest selling points, especially the fact that we can mix and match different ExaGrid appliances to our existing system. Switching to ExaGrid was a no-brainer because its upgradability just blows away what Data Domain offers,” said O’BRIEN. “When we started to run low on space on our Data Domain system, we had hoped to increase the size of the drives that were in the original shelf and it was disappointing to find out that we would actually need to purchase another shelf, which turned out to be much more expensive than the first, even though it was almost identical,” he said. “Our backups are incredibly fast, especially compared with how they used to run using Backup Exec and Data Domain,” said O’BRIEN. “Our weekend backups used to start on Friday evening and wouldn’t be finished until Monday night, sometimes even running into the Monday night incremental backup job. Now, we’ve been able to stagger various backup jobs throughout the weekend and they are finished early Sunday morning, even with gaps in between the jobs.” ExaGrid President and CEO, BILL ANDREWS, credits ExaGrid’s unique scale-out architecture and continued updates and innovations to the tiered backup solution for ExaGrid’s growing list of customers that include local governments’ departments and agencies. “Municipal organizations are looking to get the best value for their budgets, and the best backup and restore performance to ensure that their data is well-protected. ExaGrid continues to grow its feature set, which most recently has included the Retention Time-Lock for Ransomware Recovery,” he said. “As city governments are often targeted for ransomware attacks, we expect to see continued growth in thissector.”
Read more about the O’BRIEN’S experience in the City of Kennewick success story, as well as other success stories about local governments that use ExaGrid, including La Plata County Government in Colorado, the City of Bellingham in Washington, the City of Kingston in Ontario, and Dakota County in Minnesota,among many others.

ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE 2021 ADDS VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTS, ENABLING USERS TO CLOSE SECURITY GAPS IN THEIR SYSTEMS24 NOV
_INDIVIDUALS CAN NOW SCAN THEIR OPERATING SYSTEM AND APPLICATIONS FOR OPEN VULNERABILITIES THAT MALWARE ATTACKS CAN EXPLOIT, AND CLOSE THEM FOR GREATER SECURITY, PRIVACY AND PROTECTION_ SCHAFFHAUSEN, SWITZERLAND, NOVEMBER 24, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection, today announced an update of Acronis True Image 2021 that incorporates a professional-grade vulnerability assessment tool into the personal cyber protection solution. Individuals and home office users can now scan their operating systems and applications for exploitable vulnerabilities and get recommendations on effectively closing thosesecurity gaps.
With an estimated 60% of data breaches involving vulnerabilities for which a patch is available but not applied, and more than 11,000 common vulnerabilities and exploits (CVEs) listed for popularly used software, the ability to quickly find and fix those openings is critical in stopping cybercriminals. Incorporating vulnerability assessments in the same personal solution as Acronis’ advanced antimalware and backup ensures individuals, prosumers, and home office users can significantly reduce the risk of malware. “During the past five years, the emergence of ransomware as a service means criminals don’t need to be particularly technical – they can just pay for a malicious toolkit that exploits unpatched vulnerabilities,” said SERGUEI “SB” BELOUSSOV, founder and CEO of Acronis. “Users need an easy and efficient way to identify and close those vulnerabilities to ensure their system data and backups are secure. Providing that capability in one solution with antimalware and backup delivers comprehensive cyber protection and tremendousvalue.”
Given this year’s increased number of remote workers and online shoppers, cybercriminals are expected to be particularly aggressive in their attacks during the holiday shopping season. The ability to close any security gaps in their system comes just in time for users taking advantage of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals. ANTIMALWARE THAT’S VB100 CERTIFIED In addition to the vulnerability assessment tool, the autumn update also introduces an enhanced antiransomware engine. The improved engine further strengthens Acronis True Image’s next-gen, full-stack antimalware technology, which recently earned VB100 certification by returning a 99.9% detection rate with zero false-positives in the independent lab’s tests. PETER KARSAI, Head of Testing at Virus Bulletin, said, “We were pleased to welcome Acronis True Image to our endpoint security certification programme and it came as little surprise that it achieved VB100 certification on its debut, the product’s business counterpart Acronis Cyber Protect now having earned its third VB100 certification. We look forward to continuing to test both products.” The new vulnerability assessment tool and enhanced ransomware engine are both included in all editions of Acronis True Image 2021, the personal solution in the Acronis Cyber Protect family of products. The advanced antimalware capabilities are included with Advanced and Premium licenses, and offered as a three-month trial with Standard and Essential licenses. “Increasingly, cybercriminals are leveraging artificial intelligence and other technologies to make their malware more effective and increase the frequency of attacks. Stopping these attacks starts with fixing vulnerabilities so they are denied access to your system,” noted CANDID WÜEST, VP of Cyber Protection Research at Acronis. “Yet even with strong system defenses and an antimalware solution, the reality is an attack can still get through. That’s why cybersecurity without backup – and backup without cybersecurity – is ineffective against today’s threats. Only Acronis True Image delivers the cyber protection today’s users need.” For additional details about Acronis True Image 2021 and its unique integration of best-in-breed backup and advanced antimalware technology, visit www.acronis.com/en-us/products/true-image/ABOUT ACRONIS
Acronis unifies data protection and cybersecurity to deliver integrated, automated cyber protection that solves the safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security (SAPAS) challenges of the modern digital world. With flexible deployment models that fit the demands of service providers and IT professionals, Acronis provides superior cyber protection for data, applications, and systems with innovative next-generation antivirus, backup, disaster recovery, and endpoint protection management solutions.

CLOUDIAN’S S3 OBJECT LOCK SOLUTION SHORTLISTED FOR IABM BAM AWARDS2020
24 NOV
_RECOGNIZED IN “STORE” CATEGORY FOR PROVIDING RANSOMWARE PROTECTION VIA IMMUTABLE BACKUP DATA_ SAN MATEO, CALIF., NOV. 24, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — CLOUDIAN® today announced that its S3 Object Lock solution is a finalist in the “Store” category for the IABM BAM AWARDS® 2020. Recognized as the gold standard for rewarding broadcast and media innovation, the awards honor outstanding technological offerings that deliver real business and creative benefits. Cloudian’s object storage-based Object Lock solution protects against the rapidly growing ransomware threat by enabling media and entertainment organizations to create immutable backups of content that are then invulnerable to hacker encryption or deletion. This immutability ensures availability of an uninfected copy of the content for reliable recovery in the event of a ransomware attack, eliminating the need to pay ransom. Unlike offline tape storage, which requires manual management and can entail significant recovery time, Object Lock can be fully automated using on-premises disk-based storage for a trouble-free, lights-out operation. In addition, Cloudian’s Object Lock solution is part of its HyperStore platform, one of only two object storage systems with Common Criteria certification, signifying that the storage is tamper-proof so immutability cannot be compromised. “With global ransomware attacks up 40% over a year ago, and the media and entertainment industry being a key target, there is a clear need for robust data protection,” said JON TOOR, chief marketing officer at Cloudian. “Proactive approaches tend to focus on employee training and awareness, but entirely preventing human error is unrealistic, particularly with the large, distributed teams involved in modern media production. We’re honored to be recognized by IABM for providing a solution that fully safeguards content againstransomware.”
BaM Awards winners will be determined by a panel of 40 independent judges and announced on Dec. 2. To learn more about Cloudian’s Object Lock solution and how Cloudian addresses M&E storage needs more broadly, visit http://bit.ly/RansomwareSolutions and bit.ly/CloudianMandEABOUT CLOUDIAN
Cloudian is the most widely deployed independent provider of object storage. With a native S3 API, it brings the scalability and flexibility of public cloud storage into the data center while providing ransomware protection and reducing TCO by 60% or more compared to traditional SAN/NAS and public cloud. The geo-distributed architecture enables users to manage and protect object and file data across sites—on-premises and in the cloud—from a single platform. Available as software or appliances, Cloudian supports conventional and containerized applications. More at cloudian.com.U.S. MEDIA CONTACT

Sidepath addresses this challenge by delivering solutions that greatly reduce complexity within IT infrastructure by simplifying data management, simplifying virtualization, and accelerating network performance. By partnering with Wasabi, Sidepath can expand its services to include cloud capacity allowing for expanded storage options. “Data management and storage are our customers’ greatest IT challenges — and potential opportunities,” said PATRICK MULVEE, Partner at Sidepath. “Unfortunately, traditional on-premise data centers don’t always work for a world that has begun to move to the cloud. By partnering with Wasabi, we’re able to advance our mission of simplifying our clients’ technology infrastructure by providing a flexible and easy-to-use cloud storage option that can further align their IT and business needs.” Wasabi’s Reserved Capacity Storage is an innovative pricing model that provides further savings over the pay-as-you-go model. The offering allows users to pay upfront on a yearly basis, with the option to scale-up storage capacity as needed. In addition to being 1/5th the cost of Amazon S3 with no fees for egress or API requests while remaining markedly faster than competitors, Wasabi’s Reserved Capacity Storage allows for greater budget forecasting and peace-of-mind when coordinating cloud investment. “We launched Wasabi after realizing that the traditional cloud storage market was in desperate need of disruption. Too often, companies were being forced into storage agreements that were unmanageable with hidden fees and rigid capacity limitations,” said Wasabi SVP of Product, JIM DONOVAN. “We’re excited to provide Sidepath with a new, cost-effective option, while also expanding Wasabi’s geographic reach through Sidepath’s rich network ofcustomers.”

STORAGE MADE EASY UPDATES THE ENTERPRISE FILE FABRIC, STRENGTHENING REMOTE WORKING AND CYBERSECURITY FEATURES FOR A COMPANY’S EXISTING FILE AND OBJECT DATA20 NOV
_THE NEW UPDATE OF THE ENTERPRISE FILE FABRIC FOCUSES ON PANDEMIC RELATED FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS THAT STRENGTHEN DATA SECURITY AND REMOTE WORKING REQUIREMENTS_ LONDON, UK – NOVEMBER 20TH 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — STORAGE MADE EASY® (SME), announces a new release of the Enterprise File Fabric, which integrates File and Object Storage into a single platform accessible through a global file system. The release focuses on remote working and cybersecurity, providing a powerful combination of privacy and collaboration that works with a company’s existing file and object data sets. Highlights of the new release include: STRENGTHENED REMOTE WORKING AND COLLABORATION CAPABILITIES: * With more companies having remote employees, the File Fabric’s SMB CONNECTOR has been updated enabling SMB shares to no longer be restricted by boundaries of the office, facilitating cloud-like working with SMB shares without the need for VPN or VDI. The same technology works with Cloud based file systems such as AmazonFSx or Azure files.
* Additionally a NEW FEATURE of the File Fabric, called JIBE, has been introduced. Jibe is a service that is able to monitor data that is added to a company’s file or object data estates directly. As the File Fabric does not lock customers into having to use it directly to access and work with data, Jibe is a mechanism to ensure that the File Fabric metadata is instantly updated as new files or objects are directly added. This enables the File Fabric to analyze new data in near real-time, updating its ‘smart index’ immediately and enforcing security controls which include: taking immediate protective action on exposed PHI / PII data and make the data available to end users and other system workflows. * In this release THE FILE FABRIC HAS ALSO BEEN INTEGRATED WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS to provide easy in-situ access through Teams for companies that have adopted this tool for remote working and collaboration. This reduces friction and increases productivity for remote Teams that use the File Fabric to access File or Object data and who ‘live in Teams’ during their working day. * SiteLink, the File Fabric’s Remote Office Branch Office (ROBO) multi-site capabilities have been updated to support multi-site file locking and file transfer acceleration between nodes using our unique M-Stream® File Transfer acceleration feature. STRENGTHENED MEDIA CAPABILITIES: * M-STREAM®, the File Fabric’s file transfer acceleration technology, has been ENHANCED AND CERTIFIED WITH MORE FILE AND OBJECT PROVIDERS to offer a fast productivity enhancing experience for remote workers with limited consumer broadband speeds. * A BRAND NEW, TILE-BASED ‘GALLERY VIEW’ is now supported in the Web File Manager, inclusive of pan and zoom features, which provides a better experience for photo file assets. * The File Fabric now provides ON-DEMAND TRANSCODING between a range of video file formats for customers using the File Fabric’s media and entertainment module. IMPROVED DATA COMPLIANCE AND DLP CAPABILITIES: * The File Fabric’s CONTENT DISCOVERY MODULE, which provides smart discovery of PHI / PII data, has been EXTENDED TO INCLUDE PRE-DEFINED TEMPLATE POLICIES FOR CCPA AND FINRA. The template policies are automatically applied to documents in real-time, on upload by end users. The templates help enable automatic detection of personal information and protecting sensitive information wherever it is stored. Policies are extendable and companies can easily create their own templates as appertains to their own business domain. PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS: * As with every release, THE FILE FABRIC’S INDEXING AND API PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN VASTLY IMPROVED enabling file and object estates with billions of files to be accessed and managed from the FileFabric.
CONNECTORS:
* Storage Made Easy was one of the OFFICIAL BACKBLAZE LAUNCH PARTNERS CONNECTOR. The new release supports B2 Cloud Storage as a destination for S3 compatible workflows. * AS AMAZON HAVE ROLLED OUT NEW AMAZON S3 REGIONS, THESE HAVE BEEN ADDED AS SUPPORTED REGIONS TO THE FILE FABRIC’S S3 CONNECTOR. Specifically three new Amazon S3 regions have been added: Asia Pacific (Osaka-Local) – ap-northeast-3, Europe (Stockholm) – eu-north-1, Middle East (Bahrain) – me-south-1. TODD DUGHMAN, Director of Information Technology at TNP, said: “The File Fabric from Storage Made Easy enabled us to have web scale remote access to our Nasuni SMB file shares, inclusive of Microsoft Teams support. This enabled us to retire a secondary remote access file sharing solution we were using from Egnyte”. JACOB MOSS, Music Tech Assistant at Sparks & Shadows, said: “The final catalyst that justified the company moving forward with SME was the quality of support. It has been great; they respond very quickly. Overall, the File Fabric has been terrific for our business. Not only did it provide everything we needed, but we realized we could do things we would love to have done but didn’t imagine we could do”. JIM LIDDLE, Storage Made Easy CEO, said: “In today’s complex work environment, with many companies having employees that work from home, who have SMB file or object storage workflow requirements, the File Fabric can provide a single pane of glass for compliance, security, and employee productivity.” Find more information and see the full list of new and improvedfeatures here —

STORJ LABS INTRODUCES NEW INTEGRATIONS AS DECENTRALIZED CLOUD STORAGEMARKET HEATS UP
20 NOV
_COMPANY’S DECENTRALIZED CLOUD STORAGE SERVICE, TARDIGRADE INCREASES USERS BY MORE THAN 300 PERCENT AS DECENTRALIZED CLOUD MARKET EXPERIENCES RAPID GROWTH_ ATLANTA, GA – NOV. 18, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — STORJ LABS today announced multiple new integrations with its Tardigrade Decentralized Cloud Storage Service, including Velero—a VMware service for data recovery and migration for Kubernetes environments. VMware is also a Docker Registry and a storage and distribution system for named Docker images. The company also announced global research university Carnegie Mellon and the University of Maryland are both using Tardigrade to store and share large research datasets securely. These institutions are among the 11,200 customers who use Tardigrade decentralized cloud storage and take advantage of the company’s 45 PB of storage capacity spread worldwide. Tardigrade is the world’s first decentralized cloud object storage solution backed by enterprise service level agreements (SLAs). The service launched to the general public in March 2020. Since the general launch, Storj Labs has grown the network’s capacity from 22 petabytes to 45 petabytes and Tardigrade users from 3,600 to 11,200—an increase of more than 300 percent. Today, there are 171 million files stored on Tardigrade. “Decentralized cloud storage has the ability to greatly enhance security, privacy, and data durability for data owners and is largely why we’ve seen such impressive growth,” said BEN GOLUB, Storj Labs CEO and Executive Chair. “With more companies moving to the cloud, and the cloud industry being dominated by three large companies, decision-makers are very interested in pursuing other options for cloud storage to eliminate downtime and data centralization. Tardigrade is an ideal storage solution for any type of business looking to store data in the cloud, and technology companies that are interested in generating revenue through new approaches.” Tardigrade’s Open Source Partner Program (OSPP) allows companies to generate revenue every time their users upload data to the decentralized cloud storage service. By joining the OSPP and integrating their platforms with Tardigrade, partners can help their users take advantage of the service’s security and data durability benefits while also generating revenue that can be sustainably reinvested in their respective businesses. * VMWARE’S VELERO: As one of the leading providers of data backup and recovery solutions for Kubernetes environments, Velero users can now use Tardigrade to backup their Kubernetes object data to Tardigrade. This gives their Kubernetes clusters multi-region availability and the benefit of end-to-end encryption. * DOCKER REGISTRY: This service enables Docker users to store named Docker images and manage various versions of the same container. These container images reside on a storage device. Now, Docker users can host their registries on the decentralized cloud with Tardigrade, enhancing security, privacy, and performance. “The Velero community is excited to see Tardigrade develop an integration with Velero, providing another option for object storage to our users,” said MICHAEL MICHAEL, Director of Product Management at VMware. “Velero’s mission is to be the best backup and recovery solution for Kubernetes, and integrations like this showcase our strong commitment to be an ecosystem citizen and enable users to take advantage of secure, globally-distributed cloud storage solutions that meet their needs.” Storj Labs Tardigrade service is S3 compatible, end-to-end encrypted, and globally available similar to multi-region architectures of centralized services—all at a fraction of traditional cloud providers’ price. Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Maryland will be able to take advantage of these benefits to keep their data secure and available for fast access worldwide, making research more accessible. * CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY: As a globally-distributed research university with campuses across six continents, Carnegie Mellon quickly experienced the benefits a globally-distributed cloud storage service could bring to the organization and its important data. The university’s School of Computer Science hosts a large, quickly-growing research dataset on Tardigrade that is quickly growing beyond the multiple TB range and generating over 80TB of bandwidth utilization monthly. * UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, BALTIMORE: The physics department at the University of Maryland, Baltimore, uses Tardigrade to store and transfer important research data to locations around the world. Tardigrade’s globally distributed architecture means large files can be downloaded with much higher performance due to parallelism. “Tardigrade is an ideal solution for sharing the dataset because the data stored is globally available by default,” said JUNCHENG YANG, a CMU Ph.D. student. “Tardigrade helped us to solve our data storage and global sharing problem. The parallel architecture removes the bandwidth bottlenecks we’d been facing, enabling us to upload and share our data more efficiently and quickly.” To date, Tardigrade has achieved 100% file durability since its beta launch over a year ago. The company is the only decentralized cloud storage service with an SLA, which guarantees 99.9999999% durability and 99.9% availability. Tardigrade delivers performance on par—or better than centralized cloud storage providers— delivering enterprise-grade Amazon S3-compatible object storage. Developers and other cloud storage users interested in trying out Tardigrade can get started storing data on the platform by visiting the Tardigrade sign-up page.RESOURCES

More than 59 zettabytes (ZB) of data will be created, captured, copied, and consumed in the world this year, according to a new update to the Global DataSphere from International Data Corporation (IDC). At the same time, global ransomware reports have increased by 715% YoY according to the BitDefender Mid-Year Threat Landscape Report, suggesting that bad actors are capitalizing on the pandemic and increase in remote work. To thrive in this changing environment, enterprises need a data management solution that can seamlessly migrate and power on data in the cloud and protect against increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. The Andes 5.3 release is designed to address the needs of customers by delivering more enterprise-scale and performance, enhanced turnkey cloud migration, and expanded intelligent risk mitigation. Sephora VP of IT ANIL GUPTA said, “Our infrastructure is essential to stay competitive, especially during these dynamic times. Rubrik technology grows with us–providing essential data protection and increasingly flexible and expandable data management as well.” PERFORMANCE AT ENTERPRISE SCALE ANDES 5.3 OFFERS IMPROVED PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS FOR LARGE ENTERPRISE INFRASTRUCTURE AND APPLICATIONS: * 10x faster backups of SQL Server environments with hundreds of databases per host–supporting up to 10,000 SQL databases on a single Rubrik 4-node cluster; * Oracle backup speed doubled to nearly one gigabyte per second; * A new ‘Recovery Validation’ feature for Oracle in Andes 5.3 will enable validation and recovery tests that ensure an Oracle database is recoverable; * New Service Level Agreement (SLA) policies can be applied to Rubrik Elastic App Service or managed volumes–enabling full backupautomation; and
* NAS restore performance has improved 3x and NetApp scanning performance has doubled, allowing for 35 million files to be scanned in less than 15 minutes. According to MIKE SUTER, Cloud Systems Architect for CBRE Group, “Rubrik CDM allows for easy protection and fast recovery back to previous snapshots. Polaris has taken this a step further by reducing costs and also natively handling replication and recovery for complete data protection and disaster recovery.” EXPANDING TO THE CLOUD RUBRIK HAS FOCUSED ON CLOUD SINCE ITS INCEPTION AND, WITH ANDES 5.3, EXPANDS ORCHESTRATION AND COST CONTROL ACROSS PRIVATE AND PUBLIC CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURES AND HYBRID ENVIRONMENTS: * Now supporting Google Cloud to include VMs and file sets as well as automated discovery and backup of SAP HANA on Google Cloud using Rubrik SLA-based policies; * Comprehensive hybrid-cloud VMware protection across on-premises, AWS, Azure and Google, and now VMware Cloud on AWS; * Fully cloud-native Polaris for Amazon RDS enabling unified protection of RDS across multiple AWS accounts and regions, and recovery to different AWS regions * New protection of Oracle databases on AWS and Azure; and * Improved Smart Tiering to archive data to cool storage when storage savings are greater than the compute costs of having to reconstruct the data for recovery. ENTERPRISE RISK MITIGATION Beyond immutable backups and faster recovery across hybrid environments, Rubrik offers products that work on top of its data protection platform Polaris to help customers proactively mitigate data risk, even as threats accelerate. To help enterprises better reduce the risk of non-compliance and data breaches, Rubrik’s next release of Polaris Sonar product will offer visibility into high-risk locations, including sensitive files open to everyone and those that contain data that has not been accessed for some time. Released in 2019, Sonar is designed to discover sensitive, personally-identifiable information (PII) hiding in an organization’s unstructured data. Over 600 customers are now using Polaris Radar and Sonar applications to mitigate data risk. JAMES FLEMING, Director of ITS at leading biomedical research institute, Francis Crick Institute, said, “Sadly, during the pandemic, we’ve seen more attempts to plant ransomware, even as we contend with a huge increase in sensitive health information. In addition to essential protection against ransomware through Rubrik’s immutable backups, Sonar helps to find sensitive data that would be at risk of being exposed.” A number of select customers and partners are currently using Andes 5.3 in beta, with general availability expected over the coming months through Rubrik’s expansive global partner network. “Enterprises today are tasked with new challenges in managing their data, from an increase in business data to the proliferation of ransomware,” said MIKE MCLAIN, Architect, Data Protection at Insight. “I am excited about the enhancements Rubrik is making to its platform in Andes 5.3 that will make it easier than ever for our mutual customers to automate, protect, and modernize their datainfrastructure.”
DANIEL JENKINS, IT Network Engineer for Omnitracs said, “Rubrik truly is a set-it-and-forget solution that allows us to automate our complex workflows in our hybrid cloud environment. Coupled with automation and ease of use with public cloud, Rubrik has yielded 65% cost savings while freeing up time for innovation.” Over 2,700 customers around the world trust Rubrik to protect, automate, and govern their applications at a massive scale in one seamless fabric from data centers to the cloud. Rubrik enables breakthrough simplicity, speed, and savings for the enterprise, and serves three of four Fortune 100 telecom companies, two of four Fortune 100 defense and aerospace companies, two of three Fortune 100 specialty retailers, and four of five Fortune 100 insurance companies.

DATASTAX RELEASES K8SSANDRA, CLOUD-NATIVE DATA FOR KUBERNETES19 NOV
_NEW DISTRIBUTION BRINGS TOGETHER EVERYTHING NEEDED TO DEPLOY OPEN-SOURCE APACHE CASSANDRA™ ON KUBERNETES IN ONE PLACE_ SANTA CLARA, CALIF. – NOVEMBER 18, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — Today, at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America, DataStax released K8ssandra, an open-source distribution of Apache Cassandra™ on Kubernetes. K8ssandra, a Kubernetes Helm chart that deploys all things Cassandra, is available now and gives database administrators (DBAs) and site reliability engineers (SREs) elastic scale for data onKubernetes.
“K8ssandra will help make data cloud-native,” said SAM RAMJI, Chief Strategy Officer at DataStax. “Kubernetes has made running and scaling stateless apps straightforward, but those apps need data. Bringing Cassandra to Kubernetes means having an automated open source distributed datastore that SREs appreciate. K8ssandra lets you scale data elastically and observe it with Prometheus and Grafana. It’s a distribution of known-good components that work well together on Kubernetes, and it’s a place for SREs to share operationalwisdom.”
K8ssandra is an open-source distribution of Cassandra that supports stateful workloads on Kubernetes with elastic scale and auto-healing functionality. K8ssandra is deployed using helm and includes projects that the community has identified as essential for automatingCassandra:
* CASS-OPERATOR: an operator that serves as the translation layer between the control plane of Kubernetes and operations done by theCassandra cluster.
* CASSANDRA REAPER: a tool that helps manage the critical maintenance task of anti-entropy repair in a Cassandra cluster. * CASSANDRA MEDUSA: a way to backup and restore your data. K8SSANDRA ALSO INCLUDES AND INTEGRATES WITH: * PROMETHEUS: pre-built and collected metrics. * GRAFANA: pre-configured dashboards, enabling observability. According to the “Cloud Development Survey” from Evans Data Corporation, sixty-two percent of developers indicated that they prefer Kubernetes or cloud service providers to manage their data. “Running a database at scale has long been one of the most difficult challenges for engineering staff, and Cassandra was built for exactly that purpose,” said STEPHEN O’GRADY, Principal Analyst with RedMonk. “As Kubernetes has accelerated towards ubiquity, organizations will increasingly look for ways to run databases at scale on that platform. This is, in turn, what K8ssandra is builtfor.”
“New Relic is highly supportive of standardizing community-supported tools for operating and managing Cassandra clusters. We are excited about the K8ssandra launch and look forward to actively contributing and collaborating with the broader open source community. This is a great starting point for new and existing users to run Cassandra in Kubernetes and benefit from direct access to the best available Cassandra expertise and practices,” said TOM OFFERMAN, Senior Software Engineer at New Relic. In March 2020, DataStax open-sourced a Kubernetes operator in partnership with the community to help make Cassandra the ideal database for scale-out, cloud-native data. K8ssandra is the continuation of that work. “Orange has had a strong commitment to running Cassandra in Kubernetes with our open-source operator CassKop. I’m happy to see K8ssandra will expand what we are doing as a community to make Cassandra the standard for data on Kubernetes,” said FRANCK DEHAY, Software Engineer at Orange.

_PROVIDER OF WORLD’S FASTEST CLOUD FILE SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY UNVEILS NEW CHANNEL PROGRAMS AND A NEW ATTITUDE—PARTNER PORTAL, BIG SPIFFS, MDF AND EXPANDED CERTIFICATION_ CAMPBELL, CALIF.— NOVEMBER 17, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — PANZURA has announced a powerful, new and comprehensive set of channel support and investments to drive the success of Panzura partners around the world, including system integrators, value-added resellers, technology alliance partners, OEMs and managed service providers(MSPs).
Panzura has upped the ante with competitors, now offering a 35 percent discount on all sales which underscores the company’s new partner-first approach to the market. Additional programs geared toward channel partners to boost sales activities have also been introduced. Resellers will now benefit from new SPIFFs, and an unlimited marketing development fund (MDF), both designed to address the challenges of making money in the channel, and to ensure partners are rewarded with lucrative deals. In support of the existing and new channel programs offered by Panzura, the company has rolled out an online partner portal, powered by Allbound’s partner relationship and channel management solution. The portal provides a seamless experience for managing the full range of co-op, MDF, SPIFFs, rebates and rewards, and gives sales representatives and program administrators an easy “one-stop shop” to manage, grow, train and execute their Panzura business. This includes deal registration, as well as access to resources for sales enablement, and marketing assistance including the ability to co-brand assets within moments. Partners can also use the portal to get Panzura certified, a program which will see significant expansion into new market segments beyond its AEC roots. “The success of our partners is our success—nothing could be more important than ensuring they have the best tools and support available to do their jobs,” said ZACH LAVOIE, global director of channel sales at Panzura. Since its acquisition in May by Profile Capital Management, a private wealth fund that invests in exceptional technology, the company has reshaped its culture with a renewed commitment to help customers and partners achieve outstanding businessoutcomes.
“We have taken a good hard look at the sticking points for our reseller partners, and across the board removed the barriers to closing deals and getting things done. That includes making it easier for customers to get data into the cloud, and take advantage of Panzura services,” LAVOIE added. PROGRAM EXPANSION AND INVESTMENTS Recent partner program enhancements, all of which can be found on the new partner portal, are designed to provide easy tools for joint business planning and expanded deal reporting and registration. MDF—A new Marketing Development Fund has been introduced with no practical limit as a means to help partners drive revenue together with Panzura. Registered partner program participants can apply to the fund by filling out a form on the partner portal. SPIFFS—The Sales Performance Investment Fund is a versatile incentive for partners that offers $250 to sales representatives, and an additional $250 to tech resources, as a discreet bonus for closing a deal or booking a demo. Panzura certification—An upgrade to the Panzura Certification Program, which has previously focused on AEC sales, will include new content, exams and certifications for additional customer segments. ALLIANCE EXPERTS—Panzura has brought in dedicated experts to assist resellers with deals that revolve around implementations for cloud alliance partners such as Google, IBM, AWS, Azure, Cloudian andWasabi.
“While Panzura’s technology had us on day one, their investment in our current and future partnership has been a big deal to us,” said CARY DAHL, field CTO at SHI International Corp. “They are not rigid around program parameters and are willing to do what it takes to achieve our sales goals, maximize revenue, and ensure our customers are completely satisfied. We look forward to deepening our relationship with Panzura with the great new incentives and programsthey now offer.”
“Hands down, Panzura has the fastest and most powerful platform for accessing and protecting data spread across public clouds, on-premises data centers and the edge,” said ROBERT J. ZANNOTTI, executive vice president for global sales at Microdesk, Inc., “Our partnership is becoming more important and meaningful for both companies, and we look forward to continuing to grow together.”ABOUT PANZURA

THE RESILIENCY GAP WIDENS: FAILURE TO KEEP PACE WITH COMPLEXITY IN MULTI-CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS LEAVES BUSINESSES AT RISK OF RANSOMWARE, FINDS VERITAS SURVEY19 NOV
_AN AVERAGE OF 12 CLOUD PROVIDERS WERE USED TO DRIVE BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION, BUT COMPLEXITY CAN LEAD TO RISK UNLESS COMPREHENSIVE DATA PROTECTION TOOLS ARE USED_ SANTA CLARA, CALIF. – NOVEMBER 17, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — VERITAS TECHNOLOGIES, a global leader in data protection, availability and insights, today highlighted the challenges that businesses around the globe are facing as they try to protect data stored in complex hybrid multi-cloud environments, from the growing threat of ransomware. In the 2020 Ransomware Resiliency Report, Veritas found that only 36% of respondents said their security has kept pace with their IT complexity, underscoring the need for greater use of data protection solutions that can protect against ransomware across the entirety of increasingly heterogenous environments.NEED TO PAY RANSOMS
Typically, if businesses fall foul to ransomware and are not able to restore their data from a backup copy of their files, they may look to pay the hackers responsible for the attack to return their information. The Veritas research showed companies with greater complexity in their multi-cloud infrastructure were more likely to make these payments. The mean number of clouds deployed by those organizations who paid a ransom in full was 14.06. This dropped to 12.61 for those who paid only part of the ransom and went as low as 7.22 for businesses who didn’t pay at all. In fact, only 20% of businesses with fewer than five clouds paid a ransom in full, less than half the number (44%) for those with more than 20. This compares with 57% of the under-fives paying nothing to their hackers and just 17% of the over-20s.SLOW RECOVERY TIMES
Complexity in cloud architectures was also shown to have a significant impact on a business’s ability to recover following a ransomware attack. While 43% of those businesses with fewer than five cloud providers in their infrastructure saw their business operations disrupted by less than one day, only 18% of those with more than 20 were as fast to return to normal. Moreover, 39% of the over-20s took 5-10 days to get back on track, with just 16% of the under-fives having to wait so long. INABILITY TO RESTORE DATA Furthermore, according to the findings of the research, greater complexity in an organization’s cloud infrastructure, also made it slightly less likely that they would ever be able to restore their data in the event of a ransomware attack. While 44% of businesses with fewer than five cloud providers were able to restore 90% or more of their data, just 40% of enterprises building their infrastructure on more than 20 cloud services were able to say the same. JOHN ABEL, SVP and Chief Information Officer at Veritas said: “The benefits of hybrid multi-cloud are increasingly being recognised in businesses around the world. In order to drive the best experience, at the best price, organizations are choosing best-of-breed cloud solutions in their production environments, and the average company today is now using nearly 12 different cloud providers to drive their digital transformation. However, our research shows many businesses’ data protection strategies aren’t keeping pace with the levels of complexity they’re introducing and, as a result, they’re feeling the impact of ransomware more acutely. In order to insulate themselves from the financial and reputational damage of ransomware, organizations need to look to data protection solutions that can span their increasingly heterogenous infrastructures, no matter how complexthey may be.”
BUSINESSES RECOGNIZE THE CHALLENGE The Veritas research revealed that many businesses are aware of the challenge they face, with just 36% of respondents believing their security had kept pace with the complexity in their infrastructure. The top concern as a result of this complexity, as stated by businesses, was the increased risk of external attack, cited by 37% of all participants in the research. ABEL continued: “We’ve heard from our customers that, as part of their response to COVID, they rapidly accelerated their journey to the cloud. Many organizations needed to empower homeworking across a wider portfolio of applications than ever before and, with limited access to their on-premise IT infrastructure, turned to cloud deployments to meet their needs. We’re seeing a lag between the high-velocity expansion of the threat surface that comes with increased multi-cloud adoption, and the deployment of data protection solutions needed to secure them. Our research shows some businesses are investing to close that resiliency gap – but unless this is done at greater speed, companies will remain vulnerable.”NEED FOR INVESTMENT
Nearly half of businesses (46%) shared they had increased their budgets for security since the advent of the COVID pandemic. There was a correlation between this elevated level of investment and the ability to restore data in the wake of an attack: 47% of those spending more since the Coronavirus outbreak were able to restore 90% or more of their data, compared with just 36% of those spending less. The results suggest there is more to be done though, with the average business being able to restore only 80% of its data.BACK TO BASICS
While the research indicates organizations need to more comprehensively protect data in their complex cloud infrastructures, the survey also highlighted the need to get the basics of data protection right too. Only 55% of respondents could claim they have offline backups in place, even though those who do are more likely to be able to restore more than 90% of their data. Those with multiple copies of data were also better able to restore the lion’s share of their data. Forty-nine percent of those with three or more copies of their files were able to restore 90% or more of their information, compared with just 37% of those with only two. The three most common data protection tools to have been deployed amongst respondents who had avoided paying ransoms were: anti-virus, backup and security monitoring, in that order.GLOBAL TRENDS
The safest countries to be in to avoid ransomware attacks, the research revealed, were Poland and Hungary. Just 24% of businesses in Poland had been on the receiving end of a ransomware attack, and the average company in Hungary had only experienced 0.52 attacks ever. The highest incident of attack was in India, where 77% of businesses had succumbed to ransomware, and the average organization had been hit by5.27 attacks.

ASIGRA HIGHLIGHTS FIVE RANSOMWARE CHALLENGES FOR 2021 EXPECTED TO INCREASE BUSINESS RISK18 NOV
TORONTO, ON – NOVEMBER 18, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — ASIGRA INC., a leader in backup and recovery software that delivers comprehensive backup repository cyber protection, today identified five ransomware challenges expected to impact businesses in 2021, driven in part by an escalation of increasingly sophisticated ransomware attacks globally. Tasked with ensuring operational continuity, Asigra is responding to these challenges and providing guidance on maintaining productive business operations. According to the US Government’s Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), “The organization has observed continuing ransomware attacks across the country and around the world. Malicious actors have adjusted their ransomware tactics over time to include pressuring victims for payment by threatening to release stolen data if they refuse to pay. Malicious actors increasingly use tactics such as deleting system backups, which make restoration and recovery more difficult or infeasible for impacted organizations.” Organizations today have a false sense of security that their backup will be there for them when a ransomware attack occurs. Sadly, a large number of these attacks now target backup data, preventing business recoveries after such attacks. With pandemic-influenced IT trends evolving and a shift in IT solutions and services underway, Asigra has identified the following challenges expected in 2021 and guidelines for operating successfully going forward: * RANSOMWARE ATTACKS ON KUBERNETES CONTAINERS: The deployment of Kubernetes-based containers is growing rapidly as it allows software to run consistently between computing environments, making it highly portable, productive and ideal for digital transformation. Along with these advantages comes the generation of massive data volumes, making these new environments prime targets for new ransomware variants. Mitigating these attacks will require an industry-wide approach to ensuring the viability of these environments before, during and aftersuch attacks.
* CYBER-TARGETING OF SAAS-BASED APPLICATIONS: With the increase in distributed enterprise operations and remote work environments, there will be continued adoption of SaaS-based applications. Beyond the flexible use of these applications, they offer cost, time and scalability advantages in many cases. However, they also create a new data source that is vulnerable to ransomware and must be protected. * AI-DRIVEN CYBERATTACKS: Artificial intelligence and the technologies that enable it are becoming more advanced. The resulting new capabilities are allowing criminal organizations to conduct more complex and targeted attacks. To counter these more intelligent attacks, organizational defenses must also evolve. * RANSOMWARE PAYMENTS TO BECOME ILLEGAL: The US government has expressed intentions to align the payment of cyber ransoms with the support of terrorist organizations and will likely make these payments illegal. It is expected that other nations will enact such laws as well, especially to defend against possible nation-state sponsored actors. Without the ability to retrieve criminally encrypted data or recover properly, ransomware attacks will become business endingevents.
* MANAGED SECURITY SERVICE PROVIDER REGISTRATION WITH THE GOVERNMENT: The US government will move to require MSPs/MSSPs that provide cybersecurity services to register their organizations with the government, adding more regulations as the ransomware trend continues to accelerate. One method of addressing any of the above challenges is to ensure a viable backup copy is available to restore all data to pre-attack status. This entails a strong defense of the organization’s backup infrastructure, including access to backup software controls. Recent ransomware variants are conducting immutability subversion attacks which are possible because ‘step-up’ or Deep MFA (multi-factor authentication) has not been applied to backup software. Asigra Deep MFA requires credentials for any critical function that could compromise a recovery – providing protection to secure policy settings and controls. “Organizations need to ready themselves to properly and quickly respond to ransomware attacks regardless of what has been attacked. One way to do this is to make backup data very difficult to hack,” said DAVID FARAJUN, Chief Executive Officer, Asigra, Inc. “Regardless of the imposing number of routes that ransomware will take in 2021, having a well-planned response plan to get your systems back up and running in the least amount of time will be critical to ensuring business viability.” For a demonstration of this enhanced data protection suite, please contact umair.sattar@asigra.com or visit https://www.asigra.com/contact-us to schedule. _TWEET THIS: @Asigra Highlights Five Ransomware Challenges for 2021 Expected to Increase Business Risk — https://bit.ly/35F5Wr9_ ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: * Hear what Solution Providers have to say about working with Asigra: www.asigra.com/partnership * Follow Asigra on Twitter at: http://twitter.com/asigra * View the enhanced features of the Asigra Hybrid Cloud PartnerProgram
