Cyber Resilience, Defense in Depth
By combining key elements of Rubrik Security Cloud and the Pure Storage Platform, enterprises can gain critical Cyber Resilience capabilities with a three-layered defense strategy, which includes:
- Rapid Recovery: The Pure Storage Platform uses immutable snapshots as the first layer of defense in a three-layered architecture, ensuring rapid recovery and near-zero Recovery Time Objective (RTO) during cyberattacks. With Auto-on SafeMode governance, these snapshots are stored in a secure enclave, accessible only to designated contacts authenticated through Pure Storage Support, providing unmatched performance, durability, and scalability for instant recovery.
- Data Security: As a crucial second layer for data stored on the Pure Storage FlashArray, the Rubrik Security Cloud offers organisations a cyber resilience platform with compliant immutable and on-site backup via the Rubrik Secure Vault. Additional capabilities–Anomaly Detection, Threat Monitoring, Threat Hunting, Sensitive Data Monitoring, User Intelligence and Orchestrated Recovery–can further accelerate recovery and minimize downtime.
- Archival Location: The Pure Storage Platform supports the final layer of resilience, delivering massive scale-out and immutable, cost-effective storage designed for rapid recovery, even for data stored over extended periods. Both the performance-optimised FlashBlade//S™ and the economical at scale FlashBlade//E™ can be leveraged for the archival location, offering flexibility based on customer needs.
By 2025, the world is expected to generate 463 exabytes of data daily, making efficient data management and protection a critical priority. A Rubrik Zero Labs report found that 66% of IT and security leaders believe that data growth is outpacing their ability to secure data and mitigate risk.
