This year’s ITWeb Security Summit, scheduled to take place on 3 and 4 June in Johannesburg, will see CASA Software, which positions itself as a leader in digital transformation in SA and South African distributor of Nexsan, which positions itself as a global leader in the secure storage, protection and management of data, showcasing an expansive range of security solutions.

In the financial sector, data is a pivotal asset, and protecting this asset is crucial for maintaining business continuity and regulatory compliance. A Canadian real estate investment trust understood this imperative when it partnered with Nexsan in 2012 to fortify its data infrastructure. It required a robust storage solution that managed large volumes of production data and adhered to the stringent audit trails mandated by Canada’s Securities Act.

According to Byron Horn-Botha, CASA Software Senior Sales Specialist, the full case study on this implementation, which can be downloaded below, makes compelling reading on how Assureon protected data in this US$5 million ransomware attack.
