OMAHA, Nebraska (September 17, 2024) – In today’s rapidly changing threat landscape where the average data breach can cost organizations millions of dollars, strategically infusing cybersecurity protections for complex mainframe systems is critical. Today, FNTS, a mainframe solutions and managed services provider, announced its new FNTS Mainframe Business Cyber Resiliency offering, a modern, end-to-end data protection solution that preserves the integrity of mainframe data.
Destructive attacks that leave systems inoperable account for one out of every four attacks, with another 24% involving ransomware (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2023). While immutable backups help organizations recover from ransomware, FNTS Mainframe Business Cyber Resiliency ensures immutable backups are encrypted, air-gapped and safeguarded in the event of an unplanned mainframe outage. In addition, FNTS Mainframe Business Cyber Resiliency promotes prevention, continuity and compliance.
“Regulations regarding cyber incidents and risk mitigation are becoming more complex. Having a trusted partner and sound FNTS Mainframe Business Cyber Resiliency strategy can make all the difference in navigating the digital future with confidence,” FNTS Chief Technology Officer Ken Marr.
To ensure organizations can continue mainframe operations and rapidly detect, respond and recover faster in the event of a cyber risk or outage, FNTS offers maximum and continuous data protection through its standard framework.
- Anticipate, withstand, adapt and recover from adverse conditions with a secure, isolated environment to perform data validation, forensic analysis and creation of offline backups across mainframe systems and subsystems.
- Identification and alerting.
- Reduce recovery time from days to minutes with consistent and restorable point-in-time data copies.
- Enhance business continuity with compliant, automated and cost-efficient backup and recovery processes.
- Robust cybersecurity, audit assurance and corruption protection.
FNTS also offers an advanced framework that includes additional incident management, response, recovery, reporting and audit services that verify the integrity of mainframe subsystems.
“FNTS becomes an extension of organizational IT teams and collaborates with them to develop cost-effective solutions, mitigate and manage risks, and promote resilience across mainframe systems and subsystems,” said Marr.
