In a constantly evolving threat landscape, cyberattacks are moving faster whilst causing more last damage to data. In fact, according to an IBM report, attacks like ransomware that used to take months to fully deploy can now take as little as four days! That’s why early detection and a timely response has never been more critical for your enterprise clients.
IBM Storage Defender aims to work across the various silos that exist in an organization’s IT landscape to provide a holistic view of its data security posture. It is also engineered to help enterprises detect sophisticated threats earlier and orchestrate data recovery to help get a minimally viable enterprise operational by coordinating with existing SecOps workflows.
Your clients will be able to detect threats such as ransomware, exfiltration and insider attacks, leveraging intelligent software from IBM and its ecosystem partners. These tools can help them identify the safest recovery points. And because IBM Storage Defender integrates with existing security operations tools and processes, they can recover a minimally viable company sooner.
With IBM Storage Defender, clients can cut through data silos and devise an action plan to strengthen their data resilience.
