Superna Smart AirGap is a software module that automates the creation of a virtual air gap between your storage system and external networks, providing a secure, offline cyber vault for critical data. This solution is designed to enhance cyber resilience by preventing unauthorized access to backup data, even if the production network is compromised. It integrates with Dell Isilon/PowerScale storage and supports rapid recovery, enabling petabyte-scale data restoration in hours. The software offers in-band monitoring, daily data sync reporting, and customizable policies for data protection, all aligned with NIST cybersecurity best practices.
