How absolute immutability closes ransomware's backup gap

Ransomware increasingly targets backup repositories, exploiting writable staging areas, privileged access paths, and OS-level controls to destroy recovery options before immutability takes effect. Traditional storage architectures using filesystems or deduplication pipelines remain vulnerable to credential compromise and privilege escalation.

This white paper explores protocol-level immutability for backup storage, showing how design choices eliminate attack vectors. Topics include:

• S3 Object Lock enforcing tamper-proof retention
• Zero Time to Immutability removing exposure windows
• Zero Access hardware eliminating override paths
