How BrickStor SP works

BrickStor SP is a software-defined data security platform for unstructured data, fortified with advanced security and compliance features. It offers file services and detects and prevents attacks on data before they impact the business.

BrickStor SP's active security architecture implements zero-trust principles to protect data. The solution evaluates trust for each file operation in real time, based on client IP, user account, file activity, and other behavioral identifiers. When BrickStor SP detects irregular or malicious behavior, it can alert the organization's security team and stop anyone from being able to steal, manipulate, or access the files until the behavior is investigated and mitigated.

BrickStor provides immutable space-efficient snapshots without requiring special reserved space. Data-protection policies allow you to apply snapshot and retention policies to datasets based on the storage profile, making it easier to demonstrate compliance with regulations and policies.

The platform proactively detects suspicious behavior in real time on the controller itself, without relying on external servers or the cloud. Multiple assessors can be added or modified at any time using a secure update method, each looking for specific types of malicious behavior.

The advanced incident-response workflow quickly identifies the suspected attack, including source account and machines, and provides a recommended recovery plan for removing and restoring files. The solution analyzes the time of the attack and the last file changes in snapshots to determine the pre-attack copy. BrickStor SP maintains holds on the snapshots around the time of the incident to provide 1-minute RPO granularity.

The vault feature provides additional protection by creating a virtual air gap and a cryptographic manifest for attestation and chain of custody. Once a vault is "sealed," it can never be modified. Vaulted data is always accessible via a digital twin, but the vaulted data itself remains immutable.
