Nasuni
Corporation announced new targeted
restore capabilities for the Nasuni
Ransomware Protection service to
further reduce investigation time and streamline the recovery process. The company
also announced a new integration with Microsoft Sentinel, combining Nasuni's cloud-native ransomware recovery
solution with Microsoft's security information and event management (SIEM)
platform.
Distributed file share data is
crucial to today's enterprise operations, but represents a larger attack surface
and longer restore process from ransomware. Today's backup technologies are
inadequate for Network Attached Storage (NAS) workloads. The Nasuni File Data
Platform modernizes traditional NAS and the Nasuni Ransomware Protection add-on
service dramatically reduces the Mean Time To Recovery (MTTR) by quickly
detecting and stopping attacks, responding automatically. Furthermore, with the
new targeted restore capabilities, Nasuni can execute precision restores of the
affected files in seconds. The service is powered by Nasuni's patented global
file ransomware recovery process that can recover millions of files in minutes.
With targeted restore,
organizations can:
- Minimize impact of a ransomware attack on the
business, dramatically reducing risk that an attack on file shares will
impact operations.
- Precisely recover only the encrypted files
identified in the incident: robust multi-layered recovery delivers the
best possible protection.
- Automatically save key details on affected
files and the last clean snapshot of data when engaging in the restore
process.
- Manage IT and SecOps timelines and reduce
administrative tasks: fully documented attack details to meet reporting,
regulatory, and insurance requirements.
- Simplify set-up of Nasuni's Rapid Recovery
process with a few clicks.
Microsoft
Sentinel is a scalable, cloud-native solution that provides SIEM and security
orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR), while collecting data at cloud
scale across users, devices, applications, and infrastructure. Nasuni's
integration with Microsoft Sentinel allows customers to automatically spot
threat activity and immediately initiate the appropriate responses. Microsoft
Log Analytics Workspace gathers and shares Nasuni event and audit logs at any
Nasuni distributed Edge device for constant monitoring with the Sentinel
platform.
"With
the new targeted restore feature, coupled with the rapid recovery capabilities
of the Nasuni File Data Platform, enterprises can get back to business after
attacks in minutes, not days. After all, the very heart of our business is
the immediate recovery of data. We can ensure business continuity and
collaboration across the globe instantaneously. From American Standard to
Western Digital to PwC, the largest organizations across 70 countries trust
Nasuni to modernize file infrastructure, de-risk today's ever-present
ransomware threat, and alleviate hybrid working file-sharing challenges," said
David Grant, President at Nasuni.
"By integrating
Microsoft Sentinel with Nasuni's cloud-native ransomware protection, Nasuni
events are automatically captured, consolidated, and sent to Microsoft Sentinel
for analysis, providing SecOps teams with better protection for the vast amount
of data in their company file shares," said Eric Burkholder, senior program
manager for Microsoft Sentinel Growth and Ecosystem at Microsoft.
"The ability to use the
Microsoft Sentinel SIEM solution with Nasuni is key for us to monitor any
anomalies or bad activities that might be happening in our unstructured data.
Nasuni-Sentinel integration has added an important component to our entire
defense-in-depth strategy that we have with the MSFT suite of security tools,"
said Brian Erickson, Manager, IT Implementation & Acquisitions, APi
Group.
