Ransomware attacks are growing more sophisticated and costly. Organizations need guaranteed cyber resilience, not just backup solutions. The strategic partnership between Index Engines and Hitachi Vantara combines AI-driven data integrity technology with enterprise-grade infrastructure. This integration ensures rapid, confident recovery when it matters most.

The Value of Partnership for Enterprise Customers

This collaboration addresses a critical gap in the market by integrating Index Engines’ CyberSense® AI-driven ransomware detection technology with Hitachi Vantara’s Virtual Storage Platform One Block (VSP One Block) hybrid cloud infrastructure. The result is Ransomware Detection powered by CyberSense—the only solution that combines AI-driven data corruption detection, immutable data protection, and clean data recovery assurance in a single, unified platform.

For enterprise customers, particularly those in highly regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and government, this partnership eliminates the guesswork from cyber recovery. Organizations gain recovery confidence through a 99.99% SLA for ransomware corruption detection, ensuring they can identify their last known clean backup or snapshot and restore operations without the risk of reinfection. This level of certainty is backed by Hitachi Vantara’s Cyber Resilience Guarantee, providing peace of mind during critical recovery scenarios.

Strengthening Cyber Resilience Through Data Integrity

At the heart of this partnership is a shared commitment to data integrity. Index Engines’ patented AI and machine learning technology continuously scans and validates data, indexing over 5 exabytes of customer data daily to detect even the most subtle signs of ransomware corruption. Unlike traditional signature-based detection methods that require constant updates, CyberSense uses behavior-based analytics and content-level inspection to identify evolving threats, including zero-day ransomware variants.

When integrated with Hitachi Vantara’s immutable snapshots, this technology creates multiple layers of protection. Organizations can restore from AI-validated, immutable snapshots in as little as 30 seconds per snapshot, dramatically reducing downtime and data loss. The solution supports the NIST Cybersecurity Framework’s core pillars—Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover—delivering a comprehensive, compliance-ready cyber resilience strategy rather than fragmented point solutions.

The partnership also preserves existing infrastructure investments while enhancing cyber resilience capabilities. By seamlessly integrating with Hitachi Vantara’s trusted storage platform, organizations can upgrade their cyber defenses without disrupting operations or requiring wholesale technology replacements.

Delivering Measurable Business Outcomes

The business impact of this partnership is both immediate and transformative. Organizations implementing Ransomware Detection powered by CyberSense gain critical capabilities that directly address their most pressing cyber resilience challenges:

• Guaranteed Recovery Confidence: 99.99% SLA for ransomware corruption detection eliminates guesswork and ensures organizations can identify their last known clean backup without risk of reinfection
• Dramatic Speed Improvements: Recovery up to twice as fast as alternative solutions, with clean data restored in as little as 30 seconds per snapshot to minimize operational disruption
• Future-Proof Protection: Patented AI training process and behavior-based analytics detect evolving threats, including zero-day ransomware variants, without requiring constant signature updates
• Reduced Financial Impact: ESG-validated detection accuracy dramatically reduces reinfection risk—one of the most costly aspects of ransomware recovery
• Business Continuity Assurance: Maintain operations during critical recovery scenarios, helping organizations meet service level agreements and sustain stakeholder trust
• Investment Protection: Seamless integration preserves existing infrastructure investments while enhancing cyber resilience capabilities

These capabilities translate to measurable outcomes for mid-sized to large enterprises where downtime can cost millions of dollars in lost revenue and regulatory penalties.

Traditional Backup vs. Ransomware Detection Powered by CyberSense

For customers, this partnership means access to a more comprehensive solution backed by two industry leaders. Organizations gain the combined expertise of Index Engines’ cyber resilience innovation and Hitachi Vantara’s global support capabilities and enterprise-grade reliability. This collaboration ensures customers receive not only cutting-edge technology but also the scalability, service, and support necessary to protect their operations as they grow and face evolving threats.

Building on a Foundation of Innovation

This partnership builds on Index Engines’ proven track record of innovation in cyber resilience. With over 1,600 organizations across 50 industries relying on CyberSense, the technology has been rigorously tested and validated by leading analysts including Gartner, Forrester, and IDC. The solution’s patented AI training process, which includes continuous testing on real ransomware variants from Index Engines’ CyberSense Research Lab, ensures it stays ahead of emerging threats.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, the need for intelligent, automated cyber resilience solutions becomes increasingly urgent. The Hitachi Vantara and Index Engines partnership represents a fundamental shift from reactive data protection to proactive cyber resilience, giving enterprises the confidence to navigate an uncertain threat landscape and emerge from attacks faster and stronger.
