Arcserve X Series Appliances Secured by Sophos Integrated Cyber and Data Protection for Enterprise Data Volumes

Arcserve, LLC unveiled X Series appliances secured by Sophos, a self-contained solutions with integrated cyber and data protection for enterprise data volumes.

These appliances combine deep learning endpoint protection and on- and off-site DR with over 3PB of effective capacity in one unit, and linear expansion to increase capacity as needed.

According to the recently released Sophos 2021 Threat Report, organizations are hard-pressed to predict the evolution of cyber threats because ransomware gangs are constantly devising new tactics to hold critical data hostage and solicit ransom payments. For that reason, enterprises must take a proactive approach through an integrated first and last line of defense that offers ransomware prevention, detection and removal, and if needed, automated restore to on-site and cloud targets.

“Most practitioners in the IT community understand the extreme wreckage ransomware often leaves in its wake,” said Phil Goodwin, research director, IDC. “Integrating cybersecurity and data protection as a coordinated deployment is critical, of which Arcserve has staked its position at the forefront of this market. The new X Series Appliances expand these integrated technologies and are designed to create a robust system scalable for enterprise data centers.“

Data protection and security at scale
The company’s X Series appliances uncomplicate enterprise infrastructures and offer a high ROI by eliminating discrete data protection and security strategies:

• Powered by Arcserve UDP software, organizations protect complex workloads with heterogeneous technologies that can be unboxed and deployed in under 15 minutes;

• Integrate Sophos Intercept X Advanced cybersecurity to prevent ransomware and hacker attacks, including credential harvesting, lateral movement and privilege escalation;

• Protect entire enterprise data centers with over 3PB of effective capacity per unit; and,

• Increase capacity as needed with linear expansion.

Performance-driven architecture
IT organizations require solutions with performance and agility:

• Architected with cloud-native technologies, the X Series enables cloud economies of scale by combining on- and off-site backup and rapid restore to public and private clouds, including Arcserve Cloud, AWS, Azure, Nutanix Objects, Eucalyptus, Rackspace;

• Instant VM and BMR, local and remote virtual standby, application-consistent backup and granular restore, optional HA, and more;

• 56 CPU cores and 1TB RAM (expandable to 2TB) to spin up dozens of VMs on-appliance; and,

• Global de-dupe with enterprise-grade SAS HDDs and NVMe SSDs for up to 20:1 ratios.

“As the threat landscape evolves and data becomes more distributed in our work-from-home reality, it’s become more critical than ever to invest in the highest-performing tools and services to keep priceless data safe,” said Ivan Pittaluga, CTO, Arcserve. “And, as more data is being produced it’s equally important that organizations have a solution that can grow with them. Our new appliances are changing the game – giving organizations with enterprise data volumes the opportunity to use one solution for backup, cybersecurity, on-appliance and cloud DR with options for HA. No other appliance can do that, which is why we’re so pleased to offer differentiated value that not only offers higher ROI, but peace of mind.“
