After a cyberattack, Dell EMCPowerProtect Cyber Recovery for AWS delivers multiple layers of protection and a modern strategy that allows AWS clients to quickly and reliably resume normal business activities. The technology physically and logically isolates a customer’s important data from the attack surface with a secure, automated operational air gap.
