Cybersecurity tops IT investment priorities for 44% of organisations, yet teams struggle to protect expanding attack surfaces. Ransomware now targets backups directly, eliminating your last line of defence when primary systems fall.

Dell PowerStore Prime transforms storage from vulnerability to fortress. The platform delivers comprehensive protection across local, remote, and cloud environments without adding administrative complexity.

Built-in defences from the ground up
PowerStore embeds security throughout its architecture rather than bolting it on later. Native data-at-rest encryption protects information whether stored locally or replicated across sites.

Immutable hardware root of trust ensures your storage foundation remains uncompromised. Secure boot chains verify every component during startup, while digitally signed firmware updates prevent malicious code injection.

Active protection against evolving threats
Ransomware can’t corrupt what it can’t modify, and PowerStore’s secure snapshots create immutable recovery points that remain untouchable until predetermined expiration dates.

File-Level Retention (FLR) locks critical data against deletion or modification. Meeting Securities and Exchange Commission rule 17a-4(f) requirements, FLR protects compliance-critical information from both external attacks and insider threats.

Metro Volume for zero downtime
Mission-critical workloads demand continuous availability regardless of disruptions. Metro Volume delivers active/active replication with zero RTO and zero RPO across distances up to 100 kilometres.

The technology now supports Windows and Linux environments alongside VMware. Automated failover through third-site witness eliminates split-brain scenarios while maintaining seamless operations.

Cloud integration for comprehensive coverage
Integrated cloud backup to Dell APEX Protection Storage delivers cost-effective archiving with enhanced data reduction. Recovery spans any public cloud provider, eliminating vendor lock-in concerns.

Two-way workload mobility between PowerStore and APEX Block Storage enables seamless transitions. Move data based on performance needs, compliance requirements, or cost optimisation without disrupting operations.

Security certifications that matter
PowerStore meets rigorous government standards, including STIGs, NIST USGv6-r1, and FIPS 140-2. The platform appears on the U.S. Department of Defence Approved Product List for deployment in secure networks.

These certifications reflect more than checkboxes. They demonstrate PowerStore’s readiness for environments where security breaches carry catastrophic consequences.

The path to cyber resilience
Traditional backup strategies crumble when ransomware encrypts recovery data alongside production systems. PowerStore Prime breaks this vulnerability chain through layered protection mechanisms.

Your organisation gains 99.9999% availability without sacrificing performance or simplicity. One platform delivers the comprehensive protection modern threats demand.
