Dell is expanding its data protection appliances and software offerings to help organizations protect data on premises, in public clouds and at the edge.

Key among these are software advancements and a new appliance with Dell PowerProtect Data Manager, the company’s data protection software, designed to help customers improve operational security and cyber resiliency.

According to Dell, the PowerProtect Manager Appliance offers organizations a simple path to adopt modern data protection and is designed for small and mid-sized use cases with support that scales from 12 to 96 terabytes of data. The company says the appliance offers customers a modern, software-defined architecture that allows automated discovery and protection of assets and delivers unique VMware protection with Transparent Snapshots to ensure the availability of all BMs without business disruption.

In addition, Dell says the appliance offers more security and resilience, providing better security control over functions with identity and access management. The appliance is also billed as being simple to deploy and use.

Dell PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance is globally available this month in more than 30 countries across North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific, and Dell PowerProtect Data Manager software is globally available today.

Dell is also introducing PowerProtect Cyber Recovery for Google Cloud a new tool available today that enables customers to deploy an isolated cyber vault in Google Cloud to more securely separate and protect data from an attack.

Access to management interfaces will be locked down by networking controls and can require separate credentials and multi-factor authentication for access.

Organizations can use their existing Google Cloud subscription to purchase PowerProtect Cyber Recovery via the Google Cloud Marketplace, and the service can be acquired directly from Dell and its channel partners. This new offering comes after Dell introduced PowerProtect for Microsoft Azure and CyberSense for Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery for AWS.

In addition, Dell APEX Data Storage Services is expanding to offer a Backup Target option to provide backup storage in a per-per-use model designed to help customers streamline the purchase, deployment and maintenance of backup storage. This tool, available in the first quarter of 2023, is designed to help reduce a customer’s storage footprint and increase data availability.

In January, Dell will release a new Cyber Recovery Guarantee to give customers assurance that their data will be recoverable following a cyberattack. The company says it will provide customers up to $10 million in reimbursement for qualifying expenses to assist in the recovery of data from a ransomware or other cyber incident if restoring data is not possible with Dell solutions.

“With virtually everything connected to the internet in today’s digital world, the need to protect valuable data is more important than ever,” said Jeff Boudreau, president and general manager, Infrastructure Solutions Group, Dell Technologies. “This digital landscape requires a modern data protection and security strategy to address cyber threats. Point solutions don’t go deep or wide enough to help protect organizations. Dell helps customers strengthen cyber resiliency by offering integrated data protection software, systems and services to help ensure data and applications are protected and resilient wherever they live.”

The new solutions come simultaneously to Dell’s “Global Data Protection Index (GDPI) Snapshot” report that finds organizations are seeing higher levels of natural and modern disasters than in previous years, resulting in more data loss, downtime and recovery costs. According to the report, cyberattacks accounted for 48% of all disasters (up from 37% in 2021), leading all other causes of data disruption. The survey of 1,000 IT decision makers also revealed that 85% of organizations using multiple data protection vendors see a benefit in reducing their number of vendors.

The report from Dell also revealed that organizations using a single data security vendor incurred 34% less cost recovering from cyberattacks or other cyber incidents than those who used multiple vendors.
