Data guardian backup Offline#
Backed up data is always logically air-gapped so it’s offline and not accessible through standard network protocolsĭetect and alert anomalous behavior – detect an attack, alert the Sec Ops team, and pinpoint a clean recovery pointĮnforce compliance – automatically protect new workloads, lock retention, and find certain exposed sensitive data that may have been exfiltrated Secure the data – data is always encrypted in-flight and at rest, and backup data is stored in a purpose-built append-only file system. Reduce the risk of intrusion – all system interfaces are secure, role-based, least privileged, and protected by 2FA - trust nobody and no system We start with some core pieces that are foundational to Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security. Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security goes to the heart of data protection - keeping hackers out of your backup system, identifying ransomware activity, and making sure all data has a clean backup that can be recovered quickly. Security teams can now confidently leverage secured backup data to perform attack forensics, and initiate recovery operations directly from their security operations centerĪpplication owners can now rest easy knowing that business data is protected, and that if a ransomware attack were to occur, applications can be restored quickly to maintain business continuityĬIOs and CFOs can now be assured that ransomware recovery plans are supported by a Zero Trust architecture that enables the organization to minimize cyber insurance costs and prevent reputational damage resulting from ransomware attacks IT teams can now protect critical data from ransomware attacks, giving their organization the ability to recover data and applications quickly without paying a ransom What Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security means for: Multiple expert-guided recovery options, including Live Mount, Mass Recovery and AppFlows orchestrated recovery, are built-in so IT teams can quickly recover the files and workloads impacted by an attack. Once data is written to the Rubrik system, it cannot be modified, deleted or encrypted by an attack, ensuring that a clean copy of data is always available for recovery. This creates a logical airgap that blocks data from being discoverable or accessible over the network. At the core of Rubrik Zero Trust is Rubrik DataGuardian™, which supports a purpose-built file system that never exposes backup data via open network protocols. Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security™ is an architecture that is modeled after the Zero Trust Implementation Model from NIST. As NIST puts it, Zero Trust comprises “an evolving set of cybersecurity paradigms that move defenses from static, network-based perimeters to focus on users, assets, and resources.” What is Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security? So, what does a Zero Trust architecture for data management look like? Rubrik adheres to the model defined by the National Institute of Standards (NIST), which is defined by the NIST SP 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Specification. Only multi-factor authenticated users get access to data, permissions limited, and specifically their ability to maliciously impact data is removed. In other words, trust nothing, always verify. A Zero Trust architecture assumes all users, devices and applications are untrustworthy and can be compromised. The breakdown of the perimeter is driving a Zero Trust approach to cybersecurity.
The bad guys are breaching firewalls and bypassing endpoint protections. Traditional IT security defenses are failing. If data is the target, then security defenses must begin at the point of data. And while legacy backup solutions are good at recovering from natural disasters and IT failures, ransomware recovery requires you to rethink your security strategy. Ransomware hackers are getting smarter and now going straight for your backup data, so backup data must be inherently secure so attackers can’t hold data hostage. Just days earlier, Christopher Krebs, the former head of the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, testified before Congress, that "we are on the cusp of a global pandemic of a different variety, driven by greed, an avoidably vulnerable digital ecosystem, and an ever-widening criminal enterprise."Ī thriving Ransomware Economy has emerged. Unfortunately, this is a real-world advisory from The United States Department of Justice in June 2021. Such an ominous warning could be straight from the script of a high-budget action movie. “The threat of severe ransomware attacks pose a clear and present danger to your organization.”
