Data Integrity and Application Aware Response: The True Path to Cyber Resilience

For years IT resilience was built around the idea of preventing failures of the infrastructure. The goal being“keep the lights on” and hope that backups are uncorrupted and can be restored quickly when applications go down. But the truth is unexpected failures are inevitable, even more so as our IT environments become more distributed, diverse, and complex. Observability has helped alert and prioritize downtime triage, but operational response and root cause identification painfully lags, contributing significantly to the $400 billion dollar price tag on yearly enterprise downtime events. 

The even harder truth facing mission critical operations is cyberattacks don’t wait for backup windows. Infrastructure outages don’t warn you before corrupting primary data and AI-powered ransomware threats don’t play by traditional rules. Modern applications are too complex, too interconnected, and too business-critical to treat response, protection, and recovery as a siloed functions. If the app isn’t up, your business isn’t up.It’s time for a new approach. One built for the diverse, distributed, always-on reality we operate in today.

Resilience Designed for Cyber Reality

Business Continuity Starts with Application and Data Integrity

When a cyberattack lands, it doesn’t just hit infrastructure—it takes down operations. CTOs know this all too well. The aftermath of a breach can spiral into chaos, with teams scrambling to triage, recover, and resume services. While incident response plans exist, they often collapse in the moment. Why? Because the environment is too fragmented to recover with speed or certainty.

Modern IT environments are often unintentionally built with disconnected tooling. Each application with its own combination. One platform for infrastructure. Another for storage. Separate stacks for backup, monitoring, and applications. Optimized for management and agility, with no unified operational response outside of component failovers. It’s like playing chess blindfolded, you have all the pieces, but none of them can coordinate fast enough when it comes to ensuring mission critical application uptime.

The real vulnerability isn’t just the entry point. It’s the fragmentation of data defense and operational response.

Application services, infrastructure, and data recovery still operate in silos. Yet it’s the application and data layers, the lifeblood of the business that are most fragile, most targeted, and hardest to recover. When those inevitably go down, your ability to function disappears with them.

InfoScale: Resilience Around What Matters Most

InfoScale 9.0 is the only solution designed for real-time data defense, application-aware response, and cyber recovery at mission critical speed across modern hybrid environments. It’s proven to keep complex enterprise applications running during outages, cyberattacks, or ransomware events—regardless of your infrastructure stack. With real-time protection, InfoScale delivers zero RPO, near-zero RTO, and the confidence to stay operational when it matters most.

InfoScale’s full-stack resiliency approach delivers:

• Data Defense: Real-time encryption safeguards data from unauthorized access, tampering, or data exposure without sacrificing uptime or performance. Continuous monitoring of alignment between application state and data consistency to prevents data corruption or outages. Isolation at the data layer powers faster detection, triage, and response.
• Infrastructure Independence: Resilience where-ever your application needs to run, across bare metal, VMware, OpenStack, OpenShift, and more—no storage re-platforming required. Move or modernize without disrupting your applications or data. 
• Proactive Operational Response: Understand application and data health, dependencies, service sequences, and boot orders for proactive triage and clean automated recoveries.
• Application-Aware Recovery: Reduces downtime by over 98% for enterprise workloads—ensures the entire business service and clean data are fully functional and ready to restore. Turning operational response from a manual scramble into a controlled, automated process.

Forget silent failures, data corruption, fragile scripts, and late-night firefights. InfoScale defends the full application stack in real time enabling intelligent, accurate, and proactive ITOps response. Clean. Complete. Rapid. 

What’s New in InfoScale 9.0

1. Application-Aware Recovery
   InfoScale 9.0 introduces real-time tamper-proof recovery points for instant, immutable snapshots that capture application state and data integrity together. Together with data isolation, data can be validated with scanning tools to cleanly and rapidly restore. Now available for Windows OS, full-stack protection is simplified for environments running both Windows and Linux.
2. Data Layer Defense for Windows
   Defend data with security embedded directly into the data layer, delivering real-time protection without compromising performance. With granular, volume-level encryption in flight or at rest for protection and compliance.
3. Hardened Infrastructure
   InfoScale strengthens security at the operating system level, ensuring only trusted and signed software is allowed to run. This prevents stealthy malware and rootkits from executing during the boot process.
4. Resilience for OpenShift Virtualization, No Re-platforming Required
   Bring legacy and regulated apps into your OpenShift clusters with confidence. InfoScale 9.0, now certified for OpenShift Virtualization, delivers real-time resilience including intelligent failover, application-aware recovery, and dynamic I/O path management—without requiring any changes to your existing storage. Whether you're modernizing infrastructure or navigating licensing shifts, InfoScale helps you transition smoothly, maintaining security, performance, and compliance every step of the way.

Resilience Built for Any App

Most IT systems were built for manageability, not resilience. They can track what’s running but can’t act on that insight fast enough when things go wrong. InfoScale was built differently with a unified approach across storage, data, application, and infrastructure operations for fully aware operational protection and response. This makes defense always-on, context-aware, and recovery automated, predictable, and fast.

Resilience isn’t about surviving the breach. It’s about resuming operations, cleanly and confidently—without data loss, operational chaos, or business impact.
