Trilio highlights Kubernetes protection and enhanced support at KubeCon

Cloud-native data protection firm Trilio Data Inc. is highlighting its latest ransomware protection for Kubernetes as well as announcing new customers and support at the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon event in Los Angeles and virtually this week.

Trilio for Kubernetes v2.5, announced in September, offers a comprehensive approach to ransomware protection and recoverability. It does so in alignment with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework and support of zero-trust architectures.

New features in the release include creating immutable backups to protect against malicious attempts to modify or delete the backups. The immutability capability works with Amazon S3-based object-locking features to prevent backups from being deleted during the retention period.

“Ransomware is a massive problem,” David Safaii, chief executive officer of Trilio, said in a statement. “Anyone deploying Kubernetes needs to accept the increasing risks as the number of production deployments rises across the industry.”

Safaii noted that compounding the challenge is that attack sophistication is increasing as well. “An organization’s backups are its only hope to recover. Naturally, the backups are a prime target for these bad actors,” Safaii added. “Builders and operators of cloud-native applications must take a proactive approach to ransomware protection and recoverability. Architecting a zero-trust data protection strategy and management framework can no longer be an afterthought.”

Trilio also made several announcements related to customers and its ecosystem. New, unnamed clients for the company include a South American telecommunications provider, a U.S.-based managed service provider specializing in software development, a large U.S. defense and space provider, a global software technology corporation and a financial services firm in Israel.

Trilio also now supports a core-to-edge solution with SUSE Rancher that improves availability for edge clouds and helps customers curate data better. The addition of GitOps application recoverability with Red Hat OpenShift protects GitOps tools and meet compliance requirements.

A new partnership with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co.’s Ezmeral Container Platform offers a unified container software platform to run and manage Kubernetes applications at scale on any infrastructure, while VMware Inc.’s partner-ready solution for Tanzu provides enterprise-class data protection capabilities for users of VMware Tanzu Grid. New integration for cloud backup for IBM Cloud deployments with both Red Hat OpenShift or IBM Kubernetes Service is also now supported.

The Trilio platform has also added monitoring and alerting capabilities for TrilioVault using Slack, Microsoft Teams and other popular tools.

“It has been two years, so we’re excited to be back in person at KubeCon, meeting with community members and learning from each other,” Safaii said. “There’s an impressive amount of innovation happening at the intersection of cloud, application development and containers.”
