Ransomware prevention has been discussed over the last few years, but in reality, that’s just not enough. The human vector remains one of the most popular ways in for threat actors and organizations can’t do much to change that. What is needed is a multi-pronged approach to ransomware protection. There are three pillars of protection that will ensure organizations are ready for an attack. Remember, it’s not if there’s a ransomware attack, but when

Nasuni is on a roll this year. More large organizations are leveraging the cloud to transform IT operations. Ransomware is forcing companies to re-architect data protection as we roll out powerful new services to meet their needs. Our customer success and professional services teams are winning awards, customer feedback has been stellar, and our European operation is growing rapidly. But I’m especially excited about what’s been happening in the energy sector.

At the organizational level, as we look to 2023 and beyond, it’s now more important than ever to have a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. The challenge that most organizations struggle with is keeping everything safe.  Cybersecurity is like a game of whack-a-mole. You protect one thing, and the threat actors attack a different system. So, you protect that one better and then they are on to another system.  The more tools and systems we expose outside our internal network, the greater the struggle becomes.

Nasuni recently hosted Nasuni CloudBound22, a two-day virtual conference. The conference was about “Building Your File Data Cloud” such that the right people have continuous, timely, and convenient access to the right data from anywhere while protecting your organization’s data from all threats. Presenters acknowledged that the ideal of “Access your files from anywhere and protect them from anything” might not be fully attainable. Nevertheless, every business and IT leader that embraces these goals will enhance the performance of their business while reducing risks to the organization.

We often write in this space about how our platform lines up with the evolving needs of the enterprise. But we’re biased, naturally. The leading analyst firms are not, which is why we’re excited to share Gartner’s 2022 Strategic Roadmap for Storage. The report looks at the ongoing transformation of enterprise storage as IT leaders try to answer a fundamental question: how to leverage the cloud to transform operations. The age of the storage silo is over, and we’ve moved into the era of opex-based data services solutions that can be deployed on-demand at any location, anywhere in the world.

Our goal in global customer support and professional services is to deliver world-class service and industry-leading customer satisfaction. We’ll settle for nothing less. Recently, my colleagues have written about how Nasuni is on a tremendous run this year, from both a business and a product perspective, and I’m proud to announce that we’re surpassing our goals in customer service as well.

If your organization still has file data on StorSimple, you have a unique opportunity ahead of you. Effective December 31, 2022, Microsoft’s StorSimple service will reach end of life (EOL). Microsoft is being very transparent about what’s happening. Cloud management capabilities, customer support resources, repair services, replacement parts, software updates ­— all of it stops. More importantly, you’ll no longer have access to your live data and backups.

In two weeks Nasuni will be hosting Nasuni CloudBound22, our third annual event, and the timing really couldn't be any better. We’re constantly having conversations with IT leaders who’ve learned the hard way that managing and relying on aging, on-prem file storage and backup infrastructure is no longer a viable strategy. We tailored Nasuni CloudBound22 to help IT leaders figure out what to do next.  

In my thirty years working as an IT professional in the oil and gas industry, I know first-hand that every energy company has unstructured data in its file management systems. A quick Google search tells us that 82% of CIOs say their organizations are vulnerable to cyberattacks, which begs the question – how prepared is your business to combat an attack?

The world of work has changed forever, as hybrid and fully remote models are here to stay. End users have […]

With the global gaming market expected to grow to $257B by 2025, studios are locked in an increasingly competitive race. They need to deliver more innovative, complex, detail-rich experiences to gamers, whether that means launching new titles or pushing out new releases of existing franchises.

Moving your file data to the cloud isn’t just about leveraging scale anymore. That remains a major part of the story, of course, but AWS is also ushering in a new era of cloud services.
