Rubrik vs. Hiberden

A logical air gap prevents attackers from discovering your backups and enhances security. Our unique append-only file system ensures that backup data remains inaccessible to cybercriminals. To further safeguard your backups, you can globally enforce multi-factor authentication, effectively barring unauthorized access. Instead of managing hundreds or even thousands of backup jobs, you can streamline operations by implementing just a few comprehensive policies. It’s crucial to apply the same protective measures to all workloads, whether they are hosted on-premises or in the cloud. Archiving your data to your cloud provider's blob storage is a smart strategy for long-term preservation. With real-time predictive searching capabilities, accessing archived data becomes a swift and efficient process. You can conduct searches throughout your entire environment, down to the specific file level, allowing you to choose the optimal time for recovery. Recovery processes can be completed in mere hours rather than the days or weeks typically required. In collaboration with Microsoft, Rubrik is dedicated to helping businesses enhance their cyber-resilience. By storing immutable copies in a Rubrik-hosted cloud environment that is distinctly separated from your core workloads, you can significantly mitigate the risks of data loss, theft, and backup data breaches, ultimately ensuring the integrity and security of your information. This approach not only fortifies your defenses but also promotes a more streamlined backup and recovery experience across your organization.

Hiberden is a cutting-edge desktop archiving software crafted to deliver robust 3-2-1 protection for large media collections. This versatile application empowers users to archive their projects across a range of storage solutions, including LTO tape (utilizing LTFS with multi-cartridge spanning), local hard drives, NAS systems, and S3-compatible cloud services, all accessible through a unified catalog interface. With a quick visual check, users can determine the status of their projects, identifying those that are fully protected, at risk, or lacking adequate security. During the archiving process, each file is hashed using SHA-256, and it is only designated as Verified after Hiberden reads the file from the storage medium and confirms every hash, ensuring that your catalog represents dependable evidence rather than just optimism. Furthermore, the application conducts scheduled verification sweeps to monitor copies over time, enabling the early detection of silent corruption before the files are needed. Hiberden also facilitates immediate file retrieval from all copies, including those that are archived on offline tapes. A built-in MCP server allows seamless interaction with AI assistants, such as Claude, enabling users to pose straightforward questions like, "Is the Johnson wedding safe, and where is it?" directly from their catalog interface. Compatible with Windows 10/11 and currently in beta for Linux, Hiberden provides a free trial, transitioning to a one-time perpetual license, eliminating the need for ongoing subscriptions. This application is meticulously designed for studios, archivists, and anyone needing their files to outlast their hardware, ensuring enduring data security and easy access for years to come, which is a critical aspect for maintaining valuable media assets.
