Modern approach to modern threats
Both cloud object storage and NAS contain volumes of data vital to business and protecting it is critical. However, with the number of files and objects often in the millions or billions, strict latency and performance requirements on storage associated with operational workloads, and malware continuously evolving, this isn’t easy to do.

“Files can come from any number of sources, including employees, customers, partners and vendors. And modern cyber attacks readily evade traditional solutions designed to secure them,” said Ely Kahn, VP, product management, cloud security and AI/ML. “Our latest solutions take an equally modern approach to ensure cloud storage and workloads remain malware free.”

If a malicious file is detected, SentinelOne automatically remediates and quarantines it, keeping buckets clean and users safe.
