Amidst a world in turmoil, including a prolonged pandemic and the invasion of Ukraine, there have been a series of cyberattacks targeting companies mainly in the manufacturing industry. In the past few years, the number of cases in the Asian region has skyrocketed, with many reports of damage caused by ransomware and cyberattacks, especially those targeting the New Normal way of working. An immediate countermeasure is required for such cyberattacks as they may affect the survival of the company itself. Of course, the first priority is to prevent intrusion, but even in the event of an intrusion, if important data is stored "out of reach," the worst-case scenario can be avoided. In other words, the best defense is to store all data necessary for recovery in a place completely disconnected from the network. As a solution, “LTO” magnetic tape which can store up to approximately 45TB of data on a single roll, is attracting attention. Infinite amount of data can be stored by simply adding more cartridges. LTO is impact-resistant, can be stored on office shelves, etc., and does not use power like external HDDs. Although this media has all the advantages of low cost, space saving, energy saving, and reduction of CO2 emissions, it also has the disadvantage of requiring a highly specialized operation with a SAS connection to a server. Therefore, UNITEX provides hardware and software to easily operate LTO via USB connection, such as on a laptop PC. No complex system configuration is required, and cyberattack countermeasures can be implemented immediately. Now, manage offline with USB-LTO before the important data you casually put online is threatened.
