iSecurity Field Encryption vs. Veeam Data Platform

iSecurity Field Encryption protects sensitive data by employing strong encryption techniques, efficient key management, and comprehensive auditing practices. The significance of encryption is immense, as it is essential for safeguarding confidential information and ensuring compliance with regulations such as PCI-DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, and various other governmental and state privacy laws. Ransomware represents a considerable risk, targeting any file that can be accessed, including those on connected devices, mapped network drives, local shared networks, and cloud storage associated with the infiltrated system. This malicious software indiscriminately encrypts all reachable data files, including IFS files, thereby endangering vital information. To counter this threat, Anti-Ransomware technology rapidly detects high-volume cyber threats that stem from external sources, effectively quarantining them and shielding critical data housed on the IBM i system while ensuring optimal performance. Implementing such protective measures is crucial in the current digital environment, as they help maintain the integrity and accessibility of sensitive data. Additionally, staying ahead of emerging threats requires a proactive approach to security that evolves alongside technological advancements and cyber risk landscapes.
