Robert Graf, Founder, ProLion, stated: “As a 100% channel-driven company, ProLion has always resold its solutions exclusively through a highly selective network of value-added resellers and managed service providers. Our focus is on partners with an ONTAP storage focus and the technical skills necessary to deliver IT solutions for the modern data centre to mid-size and enterprise organisations.
“ProLion has been a long-standing partner of NetApp and as a key alliance partner, ProLion has been producing innovative solutions to complement NetApp technology got many years. Our commitment to the NetApp community means we will be fully supporting this event, and we are proud to be a Silver Sponsor.”
ProLion is developer of high availability and data analytics solutions with a focus on central storage systems. Its automatic switchover solution for NetApp MetroClusters, ClusterLion, and provides always-on availability with a two-location concept that guarantees data consistency in clusters at all times, even in a split-brain scenario.
Graf continued: “It seems no matter how many network or endpoint security solutions you implement there is still a significant risk that your organisation will get infected by ransomware.”
NetApp provides the leading platform for storing and protecting file data at any scale, from tens of TBs to tens of PBs, it’s simple to use and is designed to address modern security threats. You can easily create zero performance overhead snapshots, up to 1,023, that can be restored in seconds no matter the size of the file system – it’s therefore going to get you up and running much quicker than a traditional Windows Server should you experience a ransomware attack.
But what if you want to be able to detect and stop the attack in its tracks? This is where ProLion CryptoSpike comes in, as it can automatically detect a ransomware attack, lock-out the user and recover the infected files just prior to the infection to minimise the impact.
“The net result is that CryptoSpike minimises data loss and down-time should your organisation experience a ransomware attack. As a bonus CryptoSpike also provides an advanced file auditing solution so you can easily find out who created, changed, copied and deleted specific files,” concluded Graf.
