The New Metric That Matters Most: Speed of Recovery
In today’s threat landscape, it’s not a matter of if your organization will be targeted by ransomware—it’s a matter of when. And when it happens, the real question becomes: how fast can you recover?
Some vendors promote response times of 2 to 4 hours. IBM FlashSystem redefines that metric with near-instant recovery—responding in seconds to minutes, not hours. That difference in time can mean the difference between business continuity and business chaos.
IBM FlashSystem: Cyber Resilience in Real Time
IBM FlashSystem is engineered with built-in ransomware detection powered by hardware-assisted threat monitoring and inline scanning. Leveraging AI and IBM FlashCore® Modules, FlashSystem goes beyond detection to accelerate recovery:
- Inline ransomware detection scans for anomalies without disrupting performance.
- Safeguarded Copy provides immutable snapshots that can be instantly recovered.
- Cyber Vault integrations create operational and logical air gaps to isolate and secure backup copies.
- FlashSystem C200 provides high-capacity, energy-efficient storage ideal for repositories and backups—enabling resilient archives without compromising speed.
With these technologies combined, IBM FlashSystem enables your organization to detect, isolate, and recover from ransomware attacks faster than almost any competitor.
Ask the Right Question: What Would 3 Extra Hours Cost You?
It’s easy to be sold on performance specs and throughput numbers. But during a cyberattack, speed of recovery becomes the only spec that matters.
Three extra hours of downtime could mean:
- Disrupted services for your customers
- Lost revenue and productivity
- Irreversible brand damage
- Regulatory and legal consequences
FlashSystem’s rapid recovery capabilities give you the edge to act before the damage multiplies.
Resilience Backed by a Guarantee
IBM backs FlashSystem with a Cyber Resiliency Guarantee, offering peace of mind through assured data recovery and business continuity. And with the IBM Storage Assurance Program, organizations gain predictable pricing, full-system upgrades, and non-disruptive migrations—with no swing box required.
If your current storage vendor talks about hours, ask them what those hours would cost your business in the event of a breach.
