powerful solutions to deliver cyber resilience in a hybrid world
CHAPTER 1
The Power of Three
Data is the lifeblood of any organisation. Large or small. Local or global.
The year 2020 broke all records when it came to data lost in breaches and sheer numbers of cyber-attacks on companies, government, and individuals (Forbes).
Mobility and the cloud are transforming modern enterprises by providing employees and customers with greater access to data and services anywhere, anytime. With increasing application complexity, driven by remote working services and accelerated cloud adoption, the need to easily visualise, analyse, backup and secure network communications and data becomes critical.
New demands, bring new risks and vulnerabilities.
How do you protect your customer’s data in today’s hybrid world?
To support these new demands data centres are becoming increasingly virtualised, allowing for increased automation and the ability for application workloads to dynamically move across multiple on-premises data centres and multi-cloud (private, public, and hybrid) environments.
The adoption of new technologies like software-defined networking (SDN) and virtualisation, coupled with new trends in hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) and hybrid cloud IT, helps organisations deliver on the demands of the business, but also introduces new risks and vulnerabilities.
As virtualised and cloud environments grow, so does an organisation’s attack surface, increasing the risk of attackers gaining access to the internal network. Once attackers bypass perimeter security controls, they can move laterally across the environment in search of data to steal or hold for ransom. As a result, organisations must redefine their security approach to include east-west network traffic security in addition to perimeter network security. In addition, businesses unfortunate enough to become breached need to recover fast and in real time with self service backup and recoveries.
Nutanix, Rubrik & Palo Alto Networks unite to deliver the infrastructure, storage, backup & security required to provide cyber resilience in a hybrid world.
Enterprise cloud offering with next-generation security controls.
Preventive security controls to stop threats before they cause damage.
Consistent management of on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud security postures.
Automated, one-click deployment via the Nutanix Prism management console.
Plug-and-play: Get started in minutes. Rubrik auto-discovers your entire environment.
Global real-time search: Search for VMs and files with suggested search results as you type, on-prem or in the cloud.
Instant recovery: Deliver near-zero RTOs for your Hyper-V or vSphere VM’s by mounting directly onto Rubrik.
Policy-based management: Use one SLA policy engine to create and automate policies with just a few clicks.
API-first architecture: Automate custom lifecycle management workflows that play well with third party services (i.e. Ansible, ServiceNow, VMware vRealize Automation)
Lower TCO: Eliminate complexity of legacy multi-point solutions with a single platform. Shrink your data centre footprint up to 70% and achieve 30-50% in hard savings immediately.
Unlimited scale: Grow as you grow with linear scale in capacity and performance. No forklift upgrades.
Cloud mobility: Easily migrate apps to cloud for long-term retention, test/dev, or DR with a single software fabric across data centre to cloud. Mobilise AFS data directly to low-cost cloud storage while maintaining instant accessibility with file-level search.
