Dell Technologies World: Unisys Stealth Integrated With Dell EMC Cyber Recovery

Unisys Corporation announced at Dell Technologies World 2019 that its Stealth security software suite has been integrated with Dell EMC Cyber Recovery software to provide enhanced protection to clients’ cyber recovery operations.

The integrated solution will be available beginning in June 2019.

Stealth, which includes Dynamic Isolation capabilities to isolate devices or users at the first sign of compromise, reduces attack surfaces in these environments by creating dynamic, identity-driven microsegments called communities of interest (COIs). By establishing secure COIs, Stealth separates trusted systems, users and data from the untrusted. It further reduces attack surfaces by encrypting all communication between Stealth-protected assets and cloaking the assets from unauthorized users.

With announcement, the capabilities provided by Stealth will increase security for users of Cyber Recovery, a solution that manages and automates isolation and recovery of business-critical backup data so that organizations can resume business operations following ransomware or destructive cyberattacks.

Stealth will apply cryptographic network isolation to help secure all traffic into, out of and within the Cyber Recovery Vault, in which assets are hidden from the attack surface. Stealth also provides a ‘virtual clean room’ so that recovery operations can begin even before a cyberattack has been neutralized or eliminated from an enterprise network.

“The combination of Dell EMC Cyber Recovery and Unisys Stealth provides greater assurance for organizations looking for extra protection against hackers and malicious insiders who deliberately target data protection and backup infrastructure,” said Jay Snyder, SVP, global alliances, Dell EMC. “We look forward to working with Unisys to provide our clients with the best possible defenses against attacks on critical backup data.“

The integration of Stealth with Cyber Recovery software follows the announcement of the release of Stealth 4.0, the latest version of the software that addresses threats associated with the ever-evolving digital landscape in which adoption of cloud, mobile and the IoT continues to rise. V4.0 gives clients the ability to take action to respond to security incidents, stopping attacks in progress.

“Many organizations may not realize that their backup capabilities are not designed to withstand and recover from cyberattacks, and these vulnerabilities can have highly damaging and costly results,” said Eric Hutto, SVP and president, enterprise solutions, Unisys. “With Stealth and Dell EMC Cyber Recovery, organizations can be confident in their ability to restore business operations after a cyberattack. And by deploying Stealth Dynamic Isolation, organizations can greatly reduce the probability and scope of such attacks in the first place.“
