Simple and flexible data archiving

The most efficient, flexible and secure data backup solution for your business

Intro

Because non-compliance is not an option

From sector-specific laws like HIPAA to jurisdictional frameworks like GDPR, most organizations have to comply with one data retention regime or another. The requirement to archive old, non-operational data can push storage infrastructure to the limit, especially with huge volumes of live and backup data to manage.

While the cloud is a flexible, cost-effective option with virtually limitlessscalability, it doesn’t provide the visibility or control required to be confident data is protected, compliant or retrievable in the event of an audit or legal order. Building out on-premises infrastructure might be more secure, but it’s not cost-sustainable at today’s data growth rates.

Challenges

With growing data volumes and strict retention requirements to fulfill, many organizations are wondering:

How can we keep up with archival growth when we already exceed current capacity?
How can we make our data more secure for long-term retention?
Could we meet time targets for performance restoration and search if we had to?
Do we have the flexibility to leverage the convergence of backup and archiving?
How do we know when old data is removed from our archive?

Solution

Leonovus Vault: Ultra-secure, decentralized, blockchain-hardened software-defined object storage

Solving the data archiving challenge

Leonovus Vault gives enterprises the flexibility to choose the right data archiving infrastructure for their business needs without adding complexity to the IT environment. It has the flexibility to store data securely anywhere, on any platform — backward- and forward-compatible with any infrastructure. This enables easy scalability at the lowest possible cost, without constraint. The efficiencies of multi-cloud storage can be realized with zero compromise on security, privacy or data compliance.

Intelligent and secure software-defined object storage provides petabyte-scale data management backed by immutable blockchain-hardened protection. The Leonovus Vault architecture decouples data from the underlying infrastructure for enhanced security and flexible data movement while leaving IT teams in full control at all times, no matter where data is stored. Its simplicity requires no specialized or additional IT skillsets, making it easy to manage.

Archived data is more secure and compliant than it would be in on-premises storage alone: data-shredding algorithms and distributed hybrid/multi-cloud architecture render information hacker-proof, while enterprise blockchain provides an immutable, fully auditable chain of evidence for every piece of data. Because Leonovus is hardware- and software-agnostic, enterprises can use commodity storage hardware, idle storage resources and multiple clouds — even for the most sensitive data — with full compliance and security.

How it works

Leonovus Vault supports on-premises, hybrid cloud and multi-cloud data storage, with all architectures meeting the security and compliance requirements for data backups. This lets you securely use existing and lowcost resources for unstructured data. With Leonovus Vault, you can:

Easily identify and quantify idle storage assets across the organization to optimize usage and reduce costs
Add commodity storage hardware to your current internal storage infrastructure
Create a secure, virtualized storage cloud by aggregating the storage available at each detachment
Use multiple concurrent public cloud providers (AWS/Azure/Oracle/Google/Microsoft), fully secured with Leonovus technology
