Redstor Enhances Access Management for MSPs Implement Zero-trust Policies and Better Protect Customer Data

Redstor Ltd. updates its cloud backup platform for MSPs.

The enhancements are designed to help MSPs and their customers better tackle the challenges of securing remote workers, hybrid cloud environments and malware threats including ransomware.

As of today, all existing and new customers can take advantage of highly customizable user access management, a capability designed to simplify the implementation of a zero-trust policy through a new level of control and security.

With this functionality, secured by the latest multi-factor authentication technology, MSPs can make use of granular, configurable access to:

• Create and manage user identities within a single interface 
• Customize and control who has access to data and systems 
• Stop the spread of compromised login credentials 
• Simplify the user experience with a single sign-on 
• Protect key processes with multi-layer security and tighter IAM control such as biometrics and smart cards 
• Update security policies instantly to comply with regulations 
• Change access privileges across an entire environment in one action 
• Ensure secure collaboration for productivity by setting up third-party permissions without jeopardizing network security 

Built for MSPs and designed for multi-tenancy, the company streamlines IT workloads by centralizing the backup and management of data in infrastructure, cloud-native environments and an array of SaaS platforms. Management of all customers and their data can be handled entirely through a single app (RedApp) so MSPs can implement policies to fortify security and lessen the impact of data breaches.

MSPs are already able to highlight unprotected data with the firm’s solution. Further, the platform uses AI-powered malware detection to police backups by automatically quarantining suspicious files for removal. This enables malware-free recoveries without worry of reintroducing lurking threats like ransomware into the environment.

Paul Evans, CEO, said: “When it comes to threats like ransomware, overly permissioned accounts can enable lateral movement for attackers. Customizable user access management makes it hard for cyber criminals to get to a domain controller or authentication system directly.“

“MSPs can also limit malicious activity and human error by customizing roles in RedApp and removing the ability to delete accounts and data,” he added. “And if organizations have data spread over many sites or regions, they can also restrict and allow access accordingly.” 

The company’s solution is the platform of choice for MSPs. It dominates G2 user satisfaction reviews in categories including: Top 20 Backup Software, Top 20 Online Backup Software, Top 20 SaaS Backup Software, Top 20 Server Backup Software, Top 17 Disaster Recovery Software and Best Database Backup Software. With IT and services represented most, MSPs have recognized this solution in areas from product ease and setup to support quality and ease of doing business with. Redstor is designed as a growth engine for MSPs, offering revenue retention, bigger margins, clear pricing, marketing tools and 24×7 support.
