Managed Rubrik-as-a-Service — backup, DR, and cyber recovery architected around the assumption that ransomware will eventually try to encrypt your backups too. Immutable architecture, tested recovery, and a managed delivery model so you consume the outcome rather than operating Rubrik yourself.
Assured Data Protection runs Rubrik on your behalf — designing the architecture, operating the platform, executing the tests, and standing ready to recover. The differentiator versus rolling your own Rubrik is straightforward: most organizations don't have the headcount to operate enterprise-grade backup well, and "we have backups" without tested recovery is what gets companies in trouble when ransomware actually hits.
You have backups. You haven't seriously tested recovery. You don't have the headcount to operate Rubrik well. This is your brief.
If ransomware is in your top-5 risks (which it is for most orgs), managed Rubrik via Assured is a faster path to resilience than building it internally.
If you have a working Rubrik program with internal staff, you're paying for capabilities you already have. Brief only if your team is burning out.
If you need a low-cost encrypted storage target rather than a managed backup service, Storj is the right brief, not Assured.
