This document discusses InfiniGuard, a data protection solution from Infinidat. It highlights challenges with current backup solutions including slow restore times. InfiniGuard addresses this by leveraging InfiniBox storage technology to achieve restore objectives. It provides fast, scalable backup and restore performance. InfiniGuard also discusses threats from server-side encryption attacks and how its immutable snapshots and isolated backup environment help provide cyber resilience against such threats.

- 4. © 2019 Infinidat — All Rights Reserved 4 ┃ SCALE TO WIN InfiniGuard – Restore Problem Solver • InfiniGuard leverages InfiniBox technology to achieve RTO expectations or establish more aggressive goals • Enterprise customers are no longer willing to accept mediocrity in a Business Continuity situation – improved RTO is demanded • Deduplication is wrongly blamed for poor restore performance • This is broadly accepted as reality and deduplication is wrongly ‘blamed’ • The underlying storage that is at fault • But what makes us different? The quality of the underlying storage system matters – even for backup
