Synology ActiveProtect Offers Efficient Business Data Protection

Morrissey Technology – Synology released its newest device called ActiveProtect, which is designed to combine centralized management with a highly scalable architecture.

“The launch of ActiveProtect reflects Synology’s continued commitment to providing users with tools to manage their most valuable asset, namely data,” said Philip Wong, CEO of Synology FOR4D.

ActiveProtect centralizes data protection policies, operations, and tools across an organization to provide unified management and control. The coverage is complete, from endpoints, servers, hypervisors, storage systems, databases, to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace services FOR4D.

“With ActiveProtect, Synology aims to solve this challenge,” he continued.

“ActiveProtect is the culmination of Synology’s extensive research, development and experience in working with our customers. We are confident we can deliver a solution that exceeds modern business expectations,” said Jia-Yu Liu, Vice President of Synology FOR4D.

Synology claims ActiveProtect can be implemented quickly, in just minutes, and can create a comprehensive data protection plan through global policies using a centralized console. Implementing immutability and air gapping policies for recovery procedures, ActiveProtect is designed to be intuitive, thereby significantly reducing operational burden.

Each ActiveProtect device can operate in standalone or managed mode in a cluster system. Storage capacity can be increased with Synology NAS/SAN storage solutions, C2 Object Storage FOR4D, and other ActiveProtect devices in the cluster.

Additionally, existing Synology Active Backup for Business deployments can also be managed from a unified interface, providing high deployment flexibility.

Synology claims ActiveProtect FOR4D significantly reduces operational costs by providing up to 7 times faster backup speeds and a typical deduplication ratio of more than 2:1. This device will be available in Indonesia at the end of 2024.
