The data in the secondary storage is a go-to destination for enterprises when it comes to a clean snapshot of data. However, cyber criminals are also targeting the secondary storage for unauthorized access to enterprise data. To ensure such events are prevented, organizations rely on air gap solutions that keep a copy of their data in an isolated network. The traditional solutions include maintaining a physically air-gapped data vault through servers or magnetic tapes. These data isolation solutions require high capital expenditures to maintain the isolated location and are prone to errors due to manual practices.

You can eliminate the capital expenditures and high complexity of maintaining isolated networks with Cohesity FortKnox. It vaults your data directly to a data vault in the cloud during a backup window. The connectivity to the FortKnox data vault is automatically severed and unavailable outside of the predetermined backup window, this ensures that your data remains safe, secured, and isolated from any network connectivity.

We designed Cohesity Helios as an enterprise-ready platform that hosts a suite of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications for data management. Cohesity FortKnox is a SaaS application that enables you to vault data from the Cohesity cluster to the cloud and then recover it back from the cloud to the original or a new destination. It safeguards your data against ransomware attacks, natural disasters or outages, and unauthorized access.
