eChannelNews talks to VergeIO CEO, Yan Ness, about IOfortify
VergeIO, the Ultraconverged Infrastructure (UCI) company, introduced a groundbreaking solution for ransomware protection – IOfortify. This latest innovation combines robust security; unlimited, unchangeable clones; and rapid, complete recovery to fortify data integrity and provide users with true peace of mind. – Julian Lee, President TechnoPlanet
IOfortify Covered by Blocks and Files
Enterprise or MSP tenants of a VergeIO datacenter run VMs in software-defined hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) combining compute, storage, and networking. VergeIO calls this “ultraconverged” infrastructure. The VergeOS controlling software presents these nodes to tenants and protects the VMs, meaning systems, applications, and files. Immutable clones are made, globally deduplicated and stored, then used as the basis for recovery in the event of ransomware attacks. — Chris Mellor, Editor
