IBM recently released the FlashCore Module 4 storage hard drive and upgraded Storage Defender software, which are designed to enhance data security protection capabilities and effectively respond to network attacks and ransomware threats. The new version of FlashCore Module 4 uses advanced AI models to monitor I/O data in real time and quickly identify abnormal activities, such as ransomware encryption behavior. In tests, the technology was able to detect the WannaLaugh ransomware emulator in less than a minute. At the same time, Storage Defender software has added workload and storage list management functions to facilitate users to evaluate application and data scope and speed up post-disaster recovery. This move marks IBM's significant progress in the field of data security and provides customers with a more powerful protection system.
IBM recently issued a press release announcing the launch of a new version of FlashCore Module storage hard drive and a new version of Storage Defender software. The combination of the two can improve customers' ability to detect and respond to network attacks or ransomware. Existing FlashSystem products can scan all incoming data and provide proper security protection without affecting transmission performance. The newly launched FlashCore Module 4 introduces a new AI model to continuously monitor the statistics collected from each I/O to find anomalies, such as ransomware starting to encrypt data. During live testing, the new technology was able to detect a ransomware emulator called WannaLaugh in less than a minute. At the same time, the latest version of storage defense software Storage Defender has expanded its core threat detection capabilities and added workload and storage inventory management functions to help customers assess their application and data scope and help quickly get back online after an attack.IBM's new technology effectively improves the level of data security protection and provides business users with more reliable data protection solutions, which is worthy of the industry's attention and reference. Through real-time monitoring and rapid response mechanisms driven by AI, losses caused by cyber threats such as ransomware are effectively reduced.
