    Abstract

    IBM Storage Defender Data Resilience Service (DRS) is a purpose-built cloud-based data resilience platform designed to help organizations quickly restart essential business operations in the event of a cyberattack or other unforeseen catastrophic event. DRS provides threat detection, data management, and recovery orchestration for data stored across primary and secondary storage. It helps to detect and respond to cyber threats, such as malware and ransomware attacks, and rapid recovery of data in case of a security breach or data loss to minimize the risks of financial losses or damage to a company’s reputation.

    DRS offers features such as data backup, disaster recovery, and data isolation to help organizations protect their data from cyber threats and unexpected disruptions.
