Dell EMC, DarkMatter to Deliver Next-Generation Storage, Analytics Solutions in a Secure Package (SCN)
Story Highlights
DarkMatter and Dell EMC announced a partnership to help regional customers leverage the business benefits of next-generation storage and analytics, while incorporating advanced cyber threat protection. Through this agreement, DarkMatter will combine its end-to-end, cross platform expertise in securing networks and data, by accessing Dell EMC’s best-of-breed technologies and products. Through this agreement, DarkMatter solutions will incorporate cyber security, big data analytics and the modern data centre infrastructure across private and public data, whether housed in data centres or in the cloud.
Big data analytics provides a new horizon of opportunity for organisations looking to achieve a competitive advantage, whether in serving customers or managing their operations. But big data requires big storage, creating a challenge for organisations as demonstrated by the ongoing stream of news stories about data breaches. Securing data has become mission critical.
The cost of a breach, driven by factors such as damaged reputation, loss of customers, destroyed or inaccessible data, stolen IP, and remediation and forensic expenses, adds up quickly. Companies in Saudi Arabia and the UAE reported an average total cost per data breach of nearly US$3.8 million.[1]
Advanced data network implementations are themselves part of the cyber security solution, and the use of Dell EMC’s technology underpins the security incident and event management (SIEM) solutions that DarkMatter will incorporate into its Dell EMC-powered security deployments.
