The challenge

Modern ransomware does not just lock your data. It steals it first.

Attacks have grown more visible and more operationally disruptive, and they now pair encryption with data theft, which often leads to extortion. Detecting a breach at its earliest stage is what stops it before major damage is done. With regulatory controls tightening and cyber insurance premiums rising, and the lasting financial and reputational cost of a breach, the time to protect your data, reputation, and bottom line is now.

Ransomware

Stopped in under a second

Inline, real-time assessors scan every file operation and act the moment malicious or abnormal activity appears, blocking the offending client before your data can be encrypted.

Data theft

Double extortion prevented

Because today's attacks exfiltrate data before they encrypt it, BrickStor SP watches for abnormal access and bulk movement and shuts it down, preventing the breach that fuels double extortion.

Insider threats

Trusted access, always audited

Agentless user behavior auditing and analytics give visibility and governance into how users and applications access data, surfacing insider misuse and compromised accounts.

The solution · turnkey secure NAS

Cyberstorage, delivered as one integrated appliance.

Cyberstorage is a new class of unstructured data storage with active security built in, designed to stop modern threats. RackTop's software-defined NAS provides high-performance SMB and NFS file sharing with embedded security and compliance, running on Seagate enterprise storage systems and Seagate Exos X drives with Seagate Secure self-encrypting drives for FIPS-validated encryption at rest.

It arrives turnkey, with no separate security stack to assemble, so any organization can put immediate protection against ransomware and data theft in place at an economical price point.

  • Stop ransomware attacks in under a second.
  • Prevent data breaches and double extortion attacks.
  • Agentless user behavior auditing and analytics.
  • Integrated compliance reporting.
  • FIPS encryption for data at rest with Seagate Secure SEDs.

Detect, contain, recover

What Active Defense does the moment an attack starts.

Protection runs inline at the storage layer, on every file operation, so response happens as the attack unfolds rather than after the damage is done.

01

Detect

Assess every operation

Real-time assessors inspect each file operation as it happens, identifying ransomware, data theft, and abnormal behavior in under a second.

02

Contain

Isolate the attacker

Active Defense blocks the offending clients from reaching any further data while legitimate users keep operating as usual, containing the incident without taking production down.

03

Recover

One-click remediation

Always-on immutable data protection keeps clean copies, while the integrated incident workflow engine pinpoints affected files and enables one-click selection to remediate and recover only what the attack touched.

One defense, every access path

File and object, protected the same way

BrickStor SP delivers high-performance SMB and NFS file sharing with embedded security, adds S3 object access, and extends the same Active Defense and audit to browser-based Web Drive, with no client to install. Seagate Lyve Cloud object storage integrates through RackTop's secure transparent data gateway for tiering and retention.
