Dell Isilon Storage Security
You’ve invested in a Dell Isilon high-volume NAS platform that will help you scale-out seamlessly, allow your users to collaborate and work together on the same files at the same time, and even expand to the Cloud.
Now how do you keep your storage clients secure?
With MetaDefender Storage Security you can
Run periodic scans on your entire storage by scheduling automated processes.
Typically, it takes 6-9 months for organizations to even detect a data breach [1]- as demonstrated very dramatically in the infamous 2020 Sunburst attack on SolarWinds and its 18,000 Orion customers.
Hackers do not make their presence known right away. Once they find a loophole to bypass your security perimeter, they will try to infiltrate further and gain more privileged access to collect more data and information.Malicious code is often introduced via legitimate scripts (for example in Office Documents or productivity files) that reach out later to Command & Control servers to download malware.
Malware that employs timing-based evasive tactics bypasses even the most sophisticated sandboxes.
By periodically processing your entire Dell-Isilon storage, you can catch any latent outbreaks early and limit damage.
Instant Scan for suspected infections.
If you suspect your storage might have been compromised, kick off instant processing right away. In case there was a breach - the sooner you respond, the more money you can save [2]. In case there wasn’t – the sooner you know, the sooner you can go back to normal operations and minimize productivity loss for your workforce.
Scan real-time for new and modified files.
Users uploading files could have been hacked or might be using a system that is compromised. Often, attackers maintain persistence on machines with the intent to use them to come back to networks [3].
To ensure newly uploaded files do not introduce a threat inside your secured storage, make sure you process any new file as soon as it is uploaded by enabling real time processing.
Adding a storage instance to MetaDefender Storage Security
It is extremely easy and fast to integrate your Dell EMC PowerScale (Isilon) Storage via the Service Message Block (SMB) protocol to monitor and manage all your Storage instances and units in one view.
