Every IT Infrastructure team works to ensure their IT platforms adhere to a standard golden configuration – also known as baseline configuration. It’s well understood that configuration drifts cause storage & backup systems to deviate from a target baseline over time, inviting both system health and security risks.
Cyber criminals have been taking advantage of these misconfigurations, for example, compromising access credentials to organizations’ storage and backup systems.
Storage and backup system configurations can change beyond your control. Staying on top of configuration drift and actively managing security misconfigurations can significantly mitigate these risks.
Managing a baseline configuration process for your storage and backup systems is extremely difficult, since most vendor tools focus on host operating systems and web applications, and are unable to effectively communicate with the unique storage and backup technologies.
StorageGuard audits the configuration of storage & backup systems, to ensure they meet your standard and adhere to industry best practices. StorageGuard automatically detects configuration drift and unauthorized changes, while validating that all systems adhere to the required baseline – by platform.
StorageGuard contains over 2,000 built-in, tunable configuration checks, supporting all leading storage and backup vendors such as Dell, Hitachi Vantara, IBM, Pure, NetApp, Rubrik, Cohesity, and many others.
Our checks repository is constantly updated based on the guidelines of the leading security & industry standards, such as NIST, ISO/IEC, PCI DSS, CIS Control, FFIEC, SNIA, and more, and the recommendations of the storage and backup vendors.
StorageGuard helps you detect and track changes to the storage & backup health and security configurations on a regular basis, thereby helping to identify unplanned or incorrect changes that may put these systems at risk.
It’s time to automate the secure configuration of your storage & backup systems.
