Paper Title: Implementing Active Cybersecurity Defenses for Data

Paper Abstract: Gartner® predicts that "by 2025, 65% of all enterprises will require data storage products to have integrated ransomware defense mechanisms." Traditional network attached storage and file solutions leave data vulnerable to data theft from insider threats and cyberattacks. Too many solutions focus on recovery after an attack but that leaves organizations unable to perform critical services during and after attacks. Data backup doesn’t provide any protection from the actual ransomware attack or data theft. Learn how Florida Peninsula Insurance Company implemented RackTop’s BrickStor SP to actively protect their data against theft and ransomware attacks. They were also able to securely use BrickStor’s Transparent Data Movement capability to leverage S3 object storage for long term archive with data-centric zero trust security. Learn how you can implement this solution in your environment for free and gain immediate protections.
