Top Content e-Book: Ransomware in the 'New Normal' With an increase in a remote workforce, so too have ransomware threats been on the rise.. But have backup policies and incident recovery procedures improved to keep pace? In an interview with Tom Field of Information Security Media Group, David Shaw, CSO, and John Bilotti, CIO/CISO, of Nasuni shared tips on ransomware recovery, remote file-sharing, and business continuity.   This eBook also dives into: Ransomware recovery challenges Securing a remote file-sharing environment Business continuity successes in crisis response Catching Up With Our CTO: The Model is Inverting We are in the age of distributed disasters, and there is a growing awareness now that relying on technology that has physical dependencies, even recovery-themed technologies, can suddenly become a liability.   It used to be that being able to put your arms around the equipment that ran the technology was reassuring. Today, any infrastructure we can put our arms around has become a potential risk.   Enterprise IT is now looking to shift as much infrastructure as they can to the cloud. Check out this post from Nasuni CTO and founder to see what he thinks it will take for this all-cloud infrastructure of the future to take hold. White Paper: VDI is making a comeback. What's the smartest, most cost-effective way to implement it? Early VDI efforts suffered from latency issues, were hard to manage, and costly. But today, thanks to the ubiquitous availability of the public cloud, cloud-based VDI paired with Nasuni's cloud-based file management system solves all those problems. Virtual edge appliances cache data to speed delivery while the file management system simplifies information-sharing across locations. The result: all the benefits of the cloud with performance matching that of a traditional stand-alone desktop.   In this paper you'll learn how cloud VDI and cloud-based file storage provides: Cost savings over using on-premises storage A simplified environment for IT to manage Limitless storage and scalability Nasuni Coverage  Nasuni Founder: COVID-19 Accelerating Move to Cloud-Only The COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent work-from-home rules caught way too many businesses off-guard, forcing them to quickly migrate much of their employees from offices where they enjoyed relatively secure, high-speed internet access to working full-time from their bedrooms, kitchens, and dens where security and access was lacking.    In this article, Andres Rodriguez, founder and CTO of Nasuni, tells CRN that the rush to work-from-home was a wake-up call to businesses, causing them to re-examine their dependence on on-premises and cloud infrastructures and find ways to ensure the issues caused by COVID-19 are not repeated in a future pandemic or other disaster. US Buildings Firm Saves Big on HDDs with Nasuni Cloud NAS US-based building and industrial services firm APi Group has saved "hundreds of thousands of dollars" in on-site storage costs by switching to Nasuni cloud NAS gateways, which have allowed it to standardize group site hardware deployments with minimal on-site storage. See what Brian Erickson, IT implementation and acquisitions manager at APi Group has to say in this Computer Weekly article.  Nasuni In 2 Minutes Get a Demo Contact Us Nasuni, One Marina Park Drive, Boston, Massachusetts 02210, USA, +1.857.444.8500 Unsubscribe Manage preferences
