ADM 4.3 focuses on data security. With the rise of ransomware and other malware threats, ADM 4.3 hardens its security and makes official numerous new data security features.
1. WORM - Write Once, Read Many
WORM is a technology that means once data has been written, it can be read, but not modified. Apply WORM to a shared folder to provide an additional layer of protection for important data. WORM shared folders can prevent partial or complete modification of important data within a set retention period to comply with various regulatory standards for data retention and ensure that valuable data such as intellectual property rights and business secrets are protected from unauthorized tampering, including, but not limited to attacks from malware.
2. Risk Detection Greylist
The risk detection greylist will be able to record suspicious IPs, compare them through the AbuseIPDB database, and filter suspicious IPs to prevent high-risk IPs from connecting to your NAS. Denying suspicious IP connections can help reduce the risks of a NAS being attacked and improve data security.
3. Scheduled MyArchive Backups
ADM 4.3 officially supports automatic mounting and dismounting of MyArchive drives when backing up important data from an ASUSTOR NAS to a MyArchive drive. ADM will automatically mount a connected MyArchive when a backup begins, and automatically eject a MyArchive drive after the backup is complete. In addition to making performing 3-2-1 backups easier than ever, MyArchive drives are more comprehensively protected from various threats due to a different set of risks that complement the risks to data on a NAS.
