NetApp LLC (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Representative Executive Officer and President: Chiharu Saito) - NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), an intelligent data infrastructure company, and Elastio announced a partnership to deliver multi-layered cyber resilience against ransomware.
Security teams must prepare for threats at every layer of the technology stack. This includes ransomware that silently traverses production environments and hides in snapshots and backups before detection. Advanced ransomware is designed to bypass existing preventative tools, moving through production below the detection threshold to reach backup data before alerts sound. Through this partnership, NetApp and Elastio help strengthen enterprise cyber resilience with a multi-layered defense covering everything from production storage to recovery data.
The two companies are integrating Elastio's Provable Recovery Control as "Powered by Elastio" into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service, adding Deep File Inspection to snapshots. This achieves end-to-end resilience from ransomware detection to recovery, utilizing recovery points that are continuously verified as "clean."
■ New Defense Layers in NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service
- NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service
Detects and contains ransomware in real-time at the data layer, captures immutable snapshots, and guides recovery. It also continuously evaluates ransomware readiness across the entire ONTAP® environment. Includes behavioral detection via Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP).
- Elastio Provable Recovery Control
Deep File Inspection of ONTAP snapshots detects zero-day ransomware that bypassed perimeter defenses, phased malware, and stealth data corruption. It is agentless and continuously identifies the last known clean recovery point.
With this collaboration, Elastio Provable Recovery Control is integrated directly into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service without requiring additional procurement or architectural changes. Thus, both companies further enhance customers' cyber resilience.
■ Availability
The Elastio-powered NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service is scheduled for availability in the near future, starting with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, and subsequently rolling out to other ONTAP environments.
Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP is a fully managed cloud service built on NetApp's widely used ONTAP file system, providing file storage with high reliability, scalability, high performance, and rich features.
Companies interested in early access should contact their NetApp or Elastio representatives. We can assist in evaluating current recovery postures.
