“Cyber insurance is very hard to get these days. You have to answer a lot of questions from the investigators, explain exactly how you protect your data, and describe all of the security solutions you are using. But since we now have Cohesity, the process will be much easier because it’s such a well-known and trusted data protection solution.”

Arash Roudafshan, VP of Technology, Bardel Entertainment Inc

At a Glance

An Emmy Award-winning studio, Bardel Entertainment Inc. has been a leading animation service provider in North America for over 30 years. Bardel chose Cohesity to better protect its clients’ digital assets, corporate information, and reduce backup storage costs.

Challenge

While data security had not been an issue with the previous solution, Bardel also wanted to improve their ability to quickly recover client data from stored backups and archives after any breach or accidental data loss. The legacy system performed adequately for many years, but the main filer was nearly out of storage capacity and performance was declining.

Solution

If Bardel were ever the target of an attack, Cohesity provides additional protection, with a logical air gap against ransomware via snapshots, and alerts in the event of any attack. Along with Cohesity, Bardel also uses Wasabi as their backup tier.

Result

With Cohesity, Bardel Entertainment significantly improved data security, achieved a 30-40% deduplication rate on stored data, and enhanced developer productivity with access to backup copies in minutes instead of days. In addition, Cohesity helped Bardel to qualify for cyber insurance.
