THE OPTIMAL SOLUTION FOR DATA RECOVERY AFTER RANSOMWARE ATTACKS
Ransomware is a major threat to enterprise data and backup systems. Tape therefore plays a critical role in data recovery. By creating offsite, offline copies of data on tape — air-gapped data — it keeps attackers from ever reaching that copy.
Many organizations already run several backup systems: software backup, hardware appliances and backup to the cloud. Yet these can still be hit by ransomware that encrypts data and demands a ransom. Storing data on tape is one of the most effective defences against ransomware today, because tape provides an offline backup copy that is completely isolated from the corporate network.
Key features:
Maximum security. Quantum tape uses Active Vault software to create off-network storage that is protected from ransomware, making Quantum tape one of the best defences against ransomware attacks available today.
Built-in multi-factor authentication (MFA). MFA gives stronger protection for user accounts by requiring one-time passcodes (OTP) to authenticate.
Low cost, long-term retention. With up to 45 TB per cartridge, LTO-9 tape stores more data at the same price than other storage options. Quantum products also cut related costs such as power, rack space and cooling.
Less operational effort. With Active Vault (AV), administrators can easily run the system remotely, minimising hands-on interaction with the hardware.
No data recovery fees. If data on primary storage is compromised, administrators simply restore it from tape back to primary storage at no additional cost.
Active Vault software
Active Vault creates a storage partition that cannot be seen or accessed by ordinary means. Data stored in the partition is hidden and secured.
Active Vault adds a new layer of protection: even if attackers take over the backup software and then try to connect to the tape library, they still cannot see or access the partition that Active Vault has hidden.
- Administrators reach data in the Active Vault-protected partition through a web interface with multi-factor authentication (MFA) or through the library panel.
