STORAGE IN THE CROSSHAIRS

Data Storage Protection Against Modern Threats

Storage repositories are growing and your valuable data is being targeted. It only takes one malicious file to jeopardize your data security: preemptively detecting and preventing attacks is critical.

Deep Instinct Protects Against What Others Can’t See

Storage Threat Prevention Requires a Different Approach

Because the attack vectors for storage malware are unique and indirect, a different approach is required.

Ask yourself:

Check

How confident are you in your ability to prevent unknown threats in your NAS environment?

Check

How much are you spending on scanning infrastructure each year?

Check

Can your budget accommodate aggressive, inconsistent pricing models?

Check

When was the last time you were able to complete a full scan of your storage environment?
