Mission-Grade Data Protection for Federal Agencies
Protect, recover, and retain federal data across hybrid environments with zero-trust-aligned, cyber-resilient data protection built for mission continuity.
The Challenge
Federal Data Protection Is No Longer Just Backup
Federal agencies face relentless pressure to protect data while maintaining mission availability, across on-premises, cloud, and edge environments. Legacy backup tools weren’t designed for today’s threat landscape, distributed architectures, or stringent federal compliance requirements.
Ransomware, insider threats, misconfigurations, and data sprawl now put agencies at risk of prolonged outages, compliance violations, and mission disruption. At the same time, agencies must retain and recover data faster, without increasing operational complexity or cost.
Federal data protection challenges include:
-Ransomware attacks that evade traditional backup and recovery approaches
-Inconsistent protection across hybrid and multi-cloud environments
-Lengthy recovery times that jeopardize mission operations
-Growing compliance demands for immutability, retention, and auditability
The Solution
Cyber-Resilient Data Protection Built for Federal Environments
Hitachi delivers a modern data protection strategy that goes beyond backup, integrating cyber resilience, recovery assurance, and compliance into a single, mission-ready approach.
Our data protection solutions combine immutable backups, automated recovery, and advanced cyber analytics to help agencies protect data before, during, and after an attack. Designed for federal security standards and deployed across hybrid environments, this approach ensures agencies can recover with confidence, even in worst-case scenarios.
By integrating storage-level resilience, policy-driven protection, and trusted ecosystem partners, Hitachi helps agencies simplify operations while strengthening cyber posture and meeting federal mandates.
Key differentiators include:
-Zero-trust-aligned, immutable data protection
-Rapid, assured recovery at scale for mission-critical workloads
-Integrated ransomware detection and anomaly analytics
-Hybrid and multi-cloud protection with consistent policy enforcement
