Why Native Sangfor SCP Backup Isn't Enough?
Sangfor SCP's built-in backup offers enterprises an affordable, simplified solution for basic virtualized workload protection.
However, in today's threat landscape—marked by ransomware and cross-platform risks—native backup alone may leave critical gaps. To ensure comprehensive data security, businesses should adopt a layered defense strategy with professional protection solutions.
Disaster Recovery Ineffective
SCP's native backup relies on local storage or same-architecture clusters. In regional disasters (e.g., earthquakes, power outages), the lack of offline media (tapes/cloud) means backup copies are lost simultaneously, leaving recovery impossible.
The Ransomware Threat to Backup Data
Attackers often target backup systems by compromising administrative accounts to delete or encrypt backups. Without immutable storage protection, organizations remain vulnerable to irreversible data loss.
Hybrid Environment Makes Backup Difficult
SCP only protects virtualized workloads. Physical servers, and cross-cloud databases require separate backup tools, separate management interfaces make data protection more difficult.
Lack of Granular Recovery Capability
Restoring a single file from a multi-terabyte SCP backup can take hours due to full backup mounts and lack of granular search capabilities, resulting in unacceptable business downtime.
Powerful i2Backup for Sangfor SCP Backup
i2Backup provides a more powerful data protection solution for enterprise-grade SCP environments. It perfectly bridges the gap between SCP native backups with advanced features such as offline storage, granular recovery and anti-ransom protection, while maintaining seamless integration with the SCP platform.
Deeply Compatible with SCP Architecture
- Agentless Backup for SCP VMs
- Automatically Detect Added VMs
Direct access to data via the SCP virtualization platform interface eliminates the need to install an agent within the SCP VM.
Real-time detection of SCP environment changes, new VMs are automatically added to the backup policy.
More Secure Storage
- Tape Library Storage Support
- Kernel-Level Immutable Storage Solution
Write SCP backup data to offline media to physically isolate and block ransomware attacks.
Locked backup storage ensures that backup sets cannot be deleted, even if privileged administrator accounts are compromised.
Optimize SCP Backup Efficiency
- LAN-Free Transmission Relieves SCP Load
- Deduplication Reduces Backup Storage Costs
Prioritize transmission over the SAN network to avoid taking up SCP production bandwidth.
Support deduplication at both source and target ends, maximize cost saving for backup storage.
Cross-Domain Disaster Recovery
- SCP→Public Cloud/Tape Library Auto Replication
- Tape-out physical disaster recovery
Replicate SCP backup sets to AWS S3/Huawei Cloud OBS, etc., and support cascading replication.
After SCP backup data is written to tape, it can be transferred to an offsite location for storage.
