Protect Your Data with WORM

(Write Once, Read Many) Immutable Storage 

With cyberattacks becoming increasingly prevalent, enterprise-critical data faces risks such as ransomware, malicious tampering, and accidental deletion. ASUSTOR ADM has WORM technology, that is, a Write Once, Read Many technology that allows you to create immutable WORM shared folders within a Btrfs volume, preventing data from being modified or deleted within a defined retention period, providing enhanced protection for critical data.

Why Choose WORM?

 
Ransomware Protection: Prevents ransomware and malicious programs from encrypting, deleting, or tampering with important data.
 
 
Data Integrity Assurance: Avoids human error, unauthorized access, or modifications, ensuring the security of critical data. 
 
 
Regulatory Compliance Support: Helps enterprises meet regulatory requirements for data retention and immutability across various industries. 
Selecting a Protection Mode 

Governance Mode:

Within the defined retention period, files in a WORM shared folder cannot be modified or deleted. Authorized system administrators can still remove data by deleting the containing Btrfs volume or reinitializing the NAS, balancing security and management flexibility.

 

Suitable Scenarios: 

  • Business documents
  • Intellectual property
  • Internal important data

Compliance Mode:

Provides the highest level of data protection. In addition to prohibiting modification or deletion of files, it also prevents removal of the WORM Volume or reinitialization of the NAS within the retention period, ensuring complete data preservation.

 

Applicable Industries: 

  • Financial Services
  • Healthcare
  • Legal Services
  • Government and Public Sector

Choosing a Lock Mode

ASUSTOR WORM provides two file locking modes, allowing you to flexibly choose based on the characteristics of your data. 

Immutable Mode: 
Files are unmodifiable and undeletable after writing, suitable for contracts, financial records, legal documents, medical records, and corporate archives. 

Append-Only Mode: 
Preserves existing content while allowing continuous addition of new data, ideal for system logs, security audits, monitoring records, and operational logs. 
Built-in Multi-Layered Active Protection 
In addition to WORM protection, ADM provides multiple security mechanisms to further ensure data integrity: 
  • Clearly marked WORM shared folders
  • Prevents tampering with the system time to shorten the retention period
  • Retention periods can only be extended and cannot be shortened
  • Snapshots containing WORM shared folders cannot overwrite original data during restoration
ASUSTOR WORM helps enterprises protect against ransomware, avoid unauthorized changes, and enhance data preservation and cybersecurity resilience
