Predatar R17.2: Viper brings practical enhancements designed to strengthen resilience and recovery strategies for customers and partners alike. Building on the foundations of R17.0 and R17.1, this release focuses on expanding Predatar’s AI-driven capabilities and refining operational efficiency in key areas.
Two standout features define this release: expanded support for the Recovery Risk Report and significant improvements to our IBM FlashSystem Safeguarded Copy scanning. These enhancements aim to provide deeper insights, faster workflows, and better outcomes for backup environments.
Recovery Risk Report
The Recovery Risk Report has been extended to include Veeam, adding to the existing support for IBM Storage Protect, Storage Protect Plus, and Rubrik. This feature offers AI-powered analysis of backup environments, helping organisations identify risks such as security gaps, workload vulnerabilities, and architectural complexities. With insights delivered in hours, the report provides clear, vendor-neutral recommendations without requiring intrusive consultancy or significant internal resources.
For partners and managed service providers, the Recovery Risk Report is an invaluable tool. It enables fast and accurate benchmarking of client environments, offering actionable insights that help guide improvements in cyber resilience. This streamlined process delivers high value for clients, giving them clarity on their recovery risks at a fraction of the cost of traditional consultancy engagements. Starting at $999, the Recovery Risk Report provides an affordable, impactful way to engage clients while demonstrating expertise and driving deeper partnerships.
FlashSystem Scanning Enhancements
R17.2: Viper also introduces enhanced processes for IBM FlashSystem Safeguarded Copy scanning. These updates focus on streamlining how snapshots are mounted, tested, and securely removed from the CleanRoom environment after use. These improvements reduce complexity and improve efficiency, ensuring that Safeguarded Copy testing is as seamless and effective as possible.
Together, these features reflect our commitment to simplifying resilience. R17.2: Viper gives organisations the tools to uncover hidden risks, improve recovery confidence, and act decisively—all without unnecessary complexity or cost. For partners, it provides a straightforward way to deliver value and open new opportunities in the backup and resilience space.
