Nasuni Unveils New Platform Capabilities and Collaborates with Microsoft Sentinel to Simplify How Businesses Protect their File Data from Cyber Threats
Adds New Targeted Restore Feature and Integration with Microsoft Sentinel to Accelerate Recovery from Ransomware Attacks
BOSTON, July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Nasuni Corporation, a leading provider of file data services, today announced new targeted restore capabilities for the Nasuni Ransomware Protection service to further reduce investigation time and streamline the recovery process. The company also announced a new integration with Microsoft Sentinel, combining Nasuni’s cloud-native ransomware recovery solution with Microsoft’s security information and event management (SIEM) platform.
Distributed file share data is crucial to today’s enterprise operations, but represents a larger attack surface and longer restore process from ransomware. Today’s backup technologies are inadequate for Network Attached Storage (NAS) workloads. The Nasuni File Data Platform modernizes traditional NAS and the Nasuni Ransomware Protection add-on service dramatically reduces the Mean Time To Recovery (MTTR) by quickly detecting and stopping attacks, responding automatically. Furthermore, with the new targeted restore capabilities, Nasuni can execute precision restores of the affected files in seconds. The service is powered by Nasuni’s patented global file ransomware recovery process that can recover millions of files in minutes.
With targeted restore, organizations can:
- Minimize impact of a ransomware attack on the business, dramatically reducing risk that an attack on file shares will impact operations.
- Precisely recover only the encrypted files identified in the incident: robust multi-layered recovery delivers the best possible protection.
- Automatically save key details on affected files and the last clean snapshot of data when engaging in the restore process.
- Manage IT and SecOps timelines and reduce administrative tasks: fully documented attack details to meet reporting, regulatory, and insurance requirements.
- Simplify set-up of Nasuni’s Rapid Recovery process with a few clicks.
Microsoft Sentinel is a scalable, cloud-native solution that provides SIEM and security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR), while collecting data at cloud scale across users, devices, applications, and infrastructure. Nasuni’s integration with Microsoft Sentinel allows customers to automatically spot threat activity and immediately initiate the appropriate responses. Microsoft Log Analytics Workspace gathers and shares Nasuni event and audit logs at any Nasuni distributed Edge device for constant monitoring with the Sentinel platform.
“With the new targeted restore feature, coupled with the rapid recovery capabilities of the Nasuni File Data Platform, enterprises can get back to business after attacks in minutes, not days. After all, the very heart of our business is the immediate recovery of data. We can ensure business continuity and collaboration across the globe instantaneously. From American Standard to Western Digital to PwC, the largest organizations across 70 countries trust Nasuni to modernize file infrastructure, de-risk today’s ever-present ransomware threat, and alleviate hybrid working file-sharing challenges,” said David Grant, President at Nasuni.
“By integrating Microsoft Sentinel with Nasuni’s cloud-native ransomware protection, Nasuni events are automatically captured, consolidated, and sent to Microsoft Sentinel for analysis, providing SecOps teams with better protection for the vast amount of data in their company file shares,” said Eric Burkholder, senior program manager for Microsoft Sentinel Growth and Ecosystem at Microsoft.
“The ability to use the Microsoft Sentinel SIEM solution with Nasuni is key for us to monitor any anomalies or bad activities that might be happening in our unstructured data. Nasuni-Sentinel integration has added an important component to our entire defense-in-depth strategy that we have with the MSFT suite of security tools,” said Brian Erickson, Manager, IT Implementation & Acquisitions, APi Group.

Reynold Lemkins Group Attends The Asset ESG Annual Summit to Explore New Paths for Corporate Sustainable Development
ESG (environment, social, and governance) is not only an important driving force for promoting the long-term sustainable development of enterprises, but has also become a key factor in enhancing their comprehensive competitiveness. However, as the discussion around ESG has progressed to the present day, there have been an increasing number of related doubts. Especially for enterprises in Asia, the world’s fastest-growing region, finding a balance between achieving ESG goals and maintaining profitability has become an important issue that urgently needs to be addressed.
Against this backdrop, the 7th ESG Annual Summit of The Asset, with the theme of “Staying the course, scaling up,” was recently held in Singapore. This summit brought together outstanding entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers around Asia to jointly explore how to integrate ESG into corporate strategies and look forward to new opportunities for future business development. As a partner of the Summit, President and CIO of Reynold Lemkins Liu Haoran shared his view on how corporate financing and risk management strategies should effectively combine with the ESG concept.
How should investors choose enterprises with long-term value?
Reynold Lemkins Group has been committed to playing the role of “patient capital,” providing long-term and stable support and companionship to enterprises, and actively involving more long-term investors in the market. At the same time, Reynold Lemkins is also committed to supporting companies that can not only bring financial returns but also have long-term value. Liu Haoran said at the event, “As an investment institution, Reynold Lemkins Group has been working to promote the formulation of sustainable investment standards. Currently, we have multiple methods to evaluate whether potential investment targets have long-term value of sustainable development.”
Liu Haoran first emphasized that Reynold Lemkins closely follows the latest reports of third-party ESG rating agencies. As shown in MSCI’s 2023 report, companies with higher ESG scores usually outperform their peers in the long term. At the same time, Reynold Lemkins conducts an in-depth analysis of the relationship between a company’s financial performance and its ESG commitments through financial statements, ESG reports released by the company, and third-party audit data. The company’s innovation ability is also an important factor to consider about, companies that integrate sustainable innovation into their products and services are more likely to succeed in the future.
How can institutions lead the implementation of the ESG concept?
In the subsequent sharing, Liu Haoran mentioned, “With the rise of ESG investment, investors have begun to use more data sources to enhance their understanding and analysis capabilities of enterprise operations. Regulatory policies play an important role in this process, especially by formulating standardized disclosure requirements, which have promoted the standardized development of global sustainable investment.”
Liu Haoran pointed out that in April this year, the State Council of China issued the new “Nine Provisions,” which clearly proposed to improve the sustainable information disclosure system of listed companies. Subsequently, the Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing Stock Exchanges issued relevant self-regulatory regulatory guidelines, putting forward specific requirements for the sustainable information disclosure work of listed companies in terms of constructing a sustainable development information disclosure framework, clarifying disclosure topics, and encouraging companies to make voluntary disclosures. Since the policy was proposed, 41 listed companies in the A-share market have successively disclosed the implementation rules of the board of directors’ strategy and ESG committee or the company’s ESG management system. At the same time, 114 companies have disclosed their 2023 ESG reports, an increase of 58.33% compared with the same period last year.
Meanwhile, regulatory agencies in Hong Kong are also actively promoting ESG development. In January this year, the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong (SFC) stated that it would prioritize the transformation of the financial market through technology and ESG in the next three years. At the same time, Hong Kong has also strengthened the requirements for information disclosure of listed companies, promoting the improvement of market transparency and helping investors make more informed decisions.
Liu Haoran said, “By adapting to these changes in new regulations and using the newly added data and analysis tools, investors can better integrate ESG factors into investment decisions, enabling them to identify companies that are truly committed to long-term value and sustainable development.”
How can technology enhance ESG investment insights?
Liu Haoran believes that artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms have been widely used to analyze ESG-related big data. AI can help us identify patterns and trends in the data, thereby optimizing investment strategies. According to Gartner’s forecast, by 2025, more than 50% of large enterprises will use AI to support their ESG strategies, indicating that the role of AI in ESG investment will become increasingly important.
He also added, “Blockchain technology also plays an important role in promoting supply chain transparency and ethical procurement, which is crucial for ESG compliance. According to the forecast of the World Economic Forum, by 2030, blockchain will save nearly $300 billion in costs in the global supply chain while improving transparency and traceability.”
Liu Haoran said that with the popularization of sustainability reporting software, the collection and reporting of ESG data have become more efficient, ensuring the accuracy and compliance of reports. Integrated solutions and tracking tools provided by companies such as Enablon and Sphera help enterprises manage and report their ESG performance more transparently.
“Technology not only enhances our data analysis capabilities but also helps us keep up with the trend of global sustainable investment. Reynold Lemkins will continue to be committed to standing at the forefront of this change, using technology to promote smarter and more efficient investment decisions, so that every investment can not only bring financial returns but also promote the sustainable development of society and the environment.”

Compass Mining Expands into Iowa with New 30 MW Bitcoin Mining Facility
The new, fully self-owned facility enhances Compass’s capacity and offers customers greater choice for machine deployment
WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Compass Mining (“Compass” or the “Company”), a leading provider of Bitcoin mining hardware, hosting, and services, today announced its acquisition of property and power agreements to establish a state-of-the-art mining facility in Iowa. Construction is already underway on the expandable facility, with an initial 8 megawatts (MW) scheduled for energization in January 2025 and plans for expansion up to 30 MW as Compass pursues additional infrastructure investments.
Located on a 5-acre greenfield site, the new Iowa facility marks a significant step in the Company’s growth strategy, increasing its self-owned infrastructure portfolio. With an Electric Service Agreement (ESA) in place, Compass is on track to energize 8 MW of capacity by January 2025. Once operational, Compass customers will have the option to select “Iowa 4″ as the deployment location for new machines purchased through Compass’s platform.
Compass Mining has traditionally partnered with third-party facilities but is actively working to reduce counterparty risk through ownership of its own sites, such as the new Iowa facility, which is both self-owned and self-operated. This ownership model allows Compass to strengthen control over its operations and offer enhanced flexibility to customers.
“This new site marks an important milestone,” said Shanon Squires, Chief Mining Officer of Compass Mining. “By increasing our self-owned capacity, we can provide our customers greater operational control. At the same time, our partnerships with reliable third-party facilities provide our customers greater deployment flexibility, reflecting both power market dynamics and geographic diversity.”
The Iowa facility builds on Compass’s broader U.S. expansion, following the successful energization of facilities across Kentucky (10 MW) and Nebraska (7.5 MW) earlier this year. In 2024 alone, Compass has energized nearly 50 MW of new power capacity across Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Texas, with an additional 20 MW planned by January 2025.
About Compass Mining
Compass Mining is a customer-first company that provides a platform for individuals and businesses to purchase Bitcoin mining hardware, host machines, build and manage mining facilities, and access a range of ancillary services. With a commitment to exceptional customer support and transparency, Compass Mining sets the benchmark for bitcoin mining hosting. Its mission is to make Bitcoin mining accessible to everyone.
