This partnership introduces a cutting-edge approach to data security, ransomware recovery, and cyber resilience, addressing the increasing complexity of modern cyber threats.
Meeting the Growing Demand for Data Security
As the fastest-growing area in cyber security, data protection is now a top priority for South African businesses. With the rise of cloud adoption, hybrid work environments, and advanced cyber threats, the need for robust data resilience strategies has never been greater.
Justin Lee, Former Managing Director of Obscure Technologies, emphasizes:“Data security is the fastest-growing area of cyber security at the moment and a top priority for South African organizations. This space was a missing piece in the puzzle of our security portfolio, so adding Rubrik to our product stack addresses our valued partners’ and customers’ evolving cyber security and data protection needs across the board.”
Rubrik’s solutions deliver air-gapped, immutable, and access-controlled backups, ensuring businesses can recover from ransomware and other attacks without compromising data integrity.
Rubrik’s Role in Zero Trust and Cyber Resilience
Rubrik’s Zero Trust Data Security approach aligns perfectly with Obscure Technologies’ mission to provide best-of-breed solutions. By leveraging data resilience, data observability, and immutable backups, Rubrik enables businesses to:
