Dell Technologies and Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company, are bringing Dell’s cyber recovery vault to the AWS Marketplace with the launch of Dell EMC PowerProtect Cyber Recovery for AWS. Through the AWS Marketplace, customers can easily purchase and deploy an air-gapped cyber vault from Dell, the leading provider of data protection appliances & software globally1, to help securely protect and isolate data away from a ransomware attack.
David Noy, vice president of data protection product management, Dell Technologies said, “Data is a strategic asset and protecting it against ransomware and other cyberattacks is critical for organizations to make informed decisions about their business and thrive in today’s digital economy,” “By teaming with AWS, we are offering customers a cyber recovery solution that isolates business-critical data away from an attack with an air-gapped cyber vault, helping organizations reduce risk and protect data with confidence after a successful cyberattack.”
Dell EMC PowerProtect Cyber Recovery for AWS provides multiple layers of protection with a modern approach that allows AWS customers to resume normal business operations quickly and confidently after a cyberattack. The solution moves a customer’s critical data away from the attack surface, physically and logically isolating it with a secure, automated operational air gap. Unlike standard backup solutions, this air gap locks down management interfaces, requiring separate security credentials and multi-factor authentication for access.
Lucas Salter, general manager, Data Protection Solutions, Asia Pacific & Japan, Dell Technologies added, “Across APJ, 82% of companies are concerned their organization’s existing data protection solutions won’t be able to meet all future business challenges. Moreover, 70% of companies are struggling to find suitable data protection solutions for cloud native applications. Our collaboration with AWS is timely as it delivers integrated capabilities to help customers maintain continuity, scale new opportunities for growth, enable greater data mobility, and more importantly, future proof their IT operations.”
