94% of ransomware attacks now target backup repositories 

Secure them with a Data Harbor

The Challenge

When protecting your business against ransomware, nothing is more important than storing backup copies in a secure environment. According to recent surveys, 94% of ransomware actors first try to compromise backup data – stripping an organization of its last line of defense and opening it up to double-extortion if the data is stolen.

Yet maintaining a secure cloud backup environment results in many points of pain and frustration for IT teams.

With the growing threat to backup data, storage alternatives must evolve to address these concerns and other pain points. IT teams require solutions that can secure data in the event of an attack, adapt to the evolving threat landscape, and scale effortlessly to modernize the backup environment without disrupting budgets or existing infrastructure.

Common Backup Security Pain Points

 

  • Inadequate security: The backup industry uses so many buzzwords, it’s hard to know what’s true. Most cloud backup storage destinations lack effective security controls to combat an attack, including anomaly detection, data theft prevention, and anti-manipulation, and instead use “immutability” as a one-size-fits-all solution.
  • Inefficient management: As data volumes grow year over year, maintaining a secure backup environment becomes increasingly more difficult. Teams get stretched thin and needmore automation to maintain operational efficiency.
  • Unreliable: Traditional on-premises security methods like tape and air-gapped solutions are tough to scale and maintain, and can significantly limit data accessibility. On the other hand, many cloud solutions are not secure enough to reliably protect sensitive data, especially against AI-powered attacks.

 

The Data Harbor by Calamu

Industry Leading Cloud Backup Destination

The Calamu Data Harbor solves each of these challenges and more, making it the best solution for security conscious organizations. It brings together limitless cloud scalability, with an architecture that is uniquely capable of stopping AI-enabled ransomware attacks, including data exfiltration attacks.

Compared to sending data directly to a public cloud, the Data Harbor adds software-defined protection by dispersing data across multiple cloud providers and geographic locations. The Data Harbor layers in automatic anomaly detection with self-healing, full immutability, and includes Restore Control™ to give IT teams total control over who can access what data, when, and where.

A Calamu Data Harbor stands out as the most secure, efficient, and dependable choice for data storage.

 

3 Reasons WP-Backup (1)

 

Why Use a Data Harbor? 

Reason 1: Increased Data Security at the Data Level

NEW (10)

Data-level security controls with early detection and intelligent response inside the storage environment, and protection against data theft and manipulation.

 

Common Pains Points

  • The cloud lacks next-gen security controls, so once the perimeter is breached, my data is vulnerable.
  • With double-extortion attacks on the rise, I need to protect my data from theft and exfiltration.
  • Lack of visibility and trust in backup software tooling.

How the Data Harbor Increases Security

The Data Harbor is built to withstand ransomware so victims don’t just recover from attacks, they absorb it instantly.

The intelligent architecture removes the failure point common to many storage systems with a distributed, and fully immutable environment. No single storage location holds a complete data object, thwarting any data theft attempt.

The Data Harbor works with perimeter security for peace of mind in preventing the devastating threat of data exposure from ransomware.

Reason 2: Improved Resilience With Cutting-Edge Technology

NEW (9)
Future-proof cloud backup solutions that guard against the next wave of AI-powered attacks.

 

Common Pains Points

  • The cloud lacks next-gen security controls, so once the perimeter is breached, my data is vulnerable.
  • With double-extortion attacks on the rise, I need to protect my data from theft and exfiltration.
  • Lack of visibility and trust in backup software tooling.

How the Data Harbor Improves Resiliency

The Cyber-Resilient-By-Design architecture was built to withstand the toughest cyber challenges today and into the future. This modern approach means that emerging threat vectors including steal-now-decrypt-later, quantum computing, and AI-powered attacks are rendered ineffective.

Automatic self-healing keeps backup data accessible through any kind of attack or cloud outage. Restore Control™ feature thwarts unauthorized access, credential compromise and insider threats.

Why Use a Data Harbor? 

Reason 3: Limitless Scalability That Doesn't Compromise on Security

NEW (12)

 
 Backup systems that grow with your business, without compromising security, reliability, and data accessibility.

 

Common Pains Points

  • Growing data volumes are difficult to manage and protect over time.
  • On premises solutions are costly and difficult to scale and maintain.
  • The cloud offers greater scalability but decreases overall control.

How the Data Harbor Provides Limitless Scalability

The Data Harbor offers the security and control you would expect from on-premises solutions, but with the limitless scalability of the cloud. Further, the unique architecture ensures that data is always restore-ready and accessible, no matter what.

It is designed to work with all major cloud providers and functions just like any S3-compatible object storage, so it slots in effortlessly to existing backup environments.

Unlike traditional solutions the Data Harbor does not result in blackout windows or long periods of inaccessibility, while still creating a zero-trust, virtual air-gap in the cloud.
