Rubrik can gracefully backup hosts with petabyte-scale filesystems containing around a billion files. It took us focused effort and innovation, both in scaling existing systems and verifying the changes work before shipping to our customers. One of the innovative systems that helped us achieve this scalability is the FileSystem Simulator.

With the rapid growth of ransomware attacks, enterprises all share the same concern: “If we get hit by ransomware, can we recover?” The reality is, when traditional security products fail and data is compromised, the stakes are high, and IT and Security teams are often left on their own. So we asked ourselves, can we give them the ultimate assurance that Rubrik will be there for them?

At the Rubrik Data Security Summit, leaders from both the public and private sectors discussed an important topic: ransomware. Cyber threats continue to expand in both volume and sophistication with attacks growing at a rate of 150% annually. As attackers increasingly target backups, it will be even more paramount for policies and guidance from government agencies to match the security innovation of private sector businesses to mitigate the risks of this cyber pandemic head-on.
