ARTESCA 2.0 updates Scality’s simple, secure S3 object storage software for data deployments starting at a few terabytes. With ransomware attacks an unfortunate inevitability, ARTESCA 2.0 adds a dozen innovations that strengthen cyber resiliency and ransomware protection, while building upon the product’s best-in-class simplicity and lightweight object storage capabilities — at entry-level pricing starting at under $4,000/year, including 24x7 support, that won’t give CFOs heartburn.
1. New hardened attack surface for greater ransomware protection.
New integrated, security-hardened and minimal Linux Operating System that precludes OS access, reduces exposure to critical vulnerability exposures (CVEs) endemic to Linux packages, limiting a wide range of potential malicious attacks.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for secure administrator UI login, making it harder for malicious actors to log in.
Identity&access management (IAM) policies for secure access fromVeeam® Data Platform.
Immutability at the API layer through S3 object locking on top of intrinsic immutable object storage.
Lockdown of unused network ports to further reduce the attack surface.
To simplify network security management, ARTESCA 2.0 automatically configures firewall rules upon deployment.
2. More enterprise-grade features with low entry costs.
Comprehensive support of Veeam Data Platform’s new Direct to Object and Smart Object Storage API, enabling added ransomware protection, data immutability, operational efficiencies.
Simplified installer gets systems up and running fast to enable mission-critical Veeam backups and restores.
Shorter backup windows and faster restores get resources operational swiftly after an event.
Validated to scale from 1 TB - 5 PB in usable capacity, a 250% increase in capacity from previous releases, with dual-level data protection.
Extra storage resilience, via distributed erasure coding that renders data indecipherable to low-level and data exfiltration attacks, and metadata in secure repository on intrinsically immutable object storage layer.
Extra geographic resilience via asynchronous replication to separate security and management domain for “air-gapped” offsite storage.
3. New deployment options provide increased freedom of choice.
ARTESCA software appliance with integrated, secure minimal Linux OS, and automated patch upgrades to further simplify security management.
ARTESCA as virtual appliance in OVA format for fast installation on VMware vSphere version 7.0 and later.
