The Ransomware Revolution: How Pure Storage is Fueling the Fire
In a shocking move, Pure Storage has announced new advanced storage as a service (STaaS) service level agreements (SLAs) that will empower organizations to guarantee outcomes and reduce risk in their critical data infrastructure. But is this a bold step forward or a reckless gamble?
The truth is, AI is revolutionizing business, and not always for the better. Cybercriminals are increasingly using AI to increase the frequency and impact of cyber attacks, especially ransomware. And Pure Storage’s new SLAs are no exception. By promising to deliver a "customized recovery plan" and "onsite installation" in the event of a ransomware attack, Pure Storage is essentially guaranteeing that its customers will be held hostage by cybercriminals.
But wait, there’s more! Pure Storage’s new security assessment is designed to provide "deep visibility into fleet-level security risks" and offer "actionable recommendations" to maximize cyber resilience. Sounds good, right? Wrong! By promising to deliver a "numerical score" to benchmark the security posture of an organization’s storage fleet, Pure Storage is essentially guaranteeing that its customers will be vulnerable to cyber attacks.
And don’t even get me started on the new AI-powered anomaly detection enhancement. By analyzing customer environments with historical data for anomalous patterns, Pure Storage is essentially guaranteeing that its customers will be caught off guard by cyber attacks.
But what about the new site rebalance SLA? Ah, yes! This is where things get really interesting. By allowing organizations to rebalance reserve commitments once every 12 months, Pure Storage is essentially guaranteeing that its customers will be stuck in a cycle of perpetual uncertainty.
So, what does it all mean? In a nutshell, Pure Storage’s new SLAs are a recipe for disaster. By promising to deliver outcomes that are impossible to achieve, Pure Storage is essentially guaranteeing that its customers will be held hostage by cybercriminals and stuck in a cycle of perpetual uncertainty.
But hey, at least Pure Storage is trying, right?
